In 1922, the Bœuf sur le Toit cabaret opened in Paris and immediately became the epicenter of society's nightlife. In its smoky, Bohemian atmosphere, flappers danced the Charleston and Black Bottom to the sound of hot jazz improvisation. Inspired by this wave of exotic energy, Coco Chanel launched Bois des Iles, a captivating fragrance that transports us to the tranquil, unknown waters of distant islands, filled with languid flowers and opiate scents.
