# Bois 1920 Perfumes: Florentine Artistry Since 1920
## The Heritage of Bois 1920: Florentine Perfume Tradition
Bois 1920 embodies over a century of Italian perfume artistry from the heart of Florence. The brand was founded by Guido Galardi, who began his first experiments collecting lavender from the Florentine hills to create essential oils and scented formulas. The name BOIS 1920 is an acronym for "Bottega Italiana Spigo" (Italian Lavender Boutique), honoring these humble beginnings.
After a period of dormancy, Enzo Galantini, Guido Galardi's grandson, revived the brand in 2005. He masterfully blended classic traditions with modern interpretations, creating a bridge between past and present. This renaissance led to international recognition - in 2012, Bois 1920 was selected as one of the top five best olfactory expressions at the FiFi Awards in New York.
The philosophy of Bois 1920 rests on three pillars: Character, Wisdom, and Artwork. Each fragrance is viewed as a unique alchemy, born from an ancient perfume culture centered on the excellence of raw materials. The brand strives for fragrances with distinctive olfactory character and remarkable persistence, harmonizing tradition with contemporary sensibilities.
## Bois 1920 Collections: From Cannabis to Oro Masterpieces
The Bois 1920 portfolio encompasses over 30 fragrances organized into distinctive collections. The **Oro Collection** stands as the brand's centerpiece, featuring masterworks like [Oro 1920](/perfume/bois-1920-oro-1920), [Oro Nero](/perfume/bois-1920-oro-nero), and [Oro Bianco](/perfume/bois-1920-oro-bianco). These fragrances are renowned for their olfactory complexity and incomparable longevity.
Particularly noteworthy is the **Cannabis Collection**, which challenges traditional perfumery rules with fragrances like [Cannabis](/perfume/bois-1920-cannabis), [Cannabis Fruttata](/perfume/bois-1920-cannabis-fruttata), and [Cannabis Dolce](/perfume/bois-1920-cannabis-dolce). These compositions present cannabis notes in entirely new contexts - from fruity-green to spicy-sweet interpretations.
The **Elite Collection** represents the brand's luxury tier with minimalist bottles and 24-karat gold caps. [Elite I](/perfume/bois-1920-elite-i) combines marine notes with white florals, while [Elite IV](/perfume/bois-1920-elite-iv) offers a fascinating blend of honey, iris, and tobacco. Other highlights include [Centenario](/perfume/bois-1920-centenario) with its unique coconut-iris combination and [Dolce di Giorno](/perfume/bois-1920-dolce-di-giorno), which marries spiced plum with precious woods.
