104 orange verte, jacynthe, lierre
A crisp green citrus with a watery floral heart, 104 opens on bitter orange, galbanum and cardamom before settling into ivy, hyacinth and soft woods. It reads fresh, leafy and slightly resinous rather than sweet. This is the kind of unisex scent that suits spring best, especially if you like aromatic, garden-like fragrances with a clean but textured finish.

Main Accords
11 MAPPEDThe green accord is the centre of gravity here, and it feels leafy, stemmy and slightly bitter rather than soft or mossy. Aromatic and balsamic facets add texture, while the aquatic side keeps the heart dewy. As it dries down, the woody and earthy notes give the fragrance more structure than a simple fresh scent.

EDITORIAL“Bon Parfumeur 104 Review”
Bon Parfumeur 104 is built around the idea of green freshness, but it does not go in a basic cologne direction. The opening brings bitter orange and cardamom first, with galbanum giving it an immediately leafy, slightly sharp edge. It feels more like crushed stems and cool greenery than juicy citrus.
As it settles, the floral heart softens the structure without making it powdery or traditionally pretty. Hyacinth is the key note here, giving the fragrance a watery, spring-garden character that fits the name well. Jasmine is present, but it reads more as a clean floral glow than an indolic white-flower statement. The aquatic aspect stays controlled, so the scent feels fresh rather than overtly marine.
What makes 104 appealing is its balance between brightness and texture. The green notes keep it brisk, while lentisque, patchouli and amber stop it from becoming too airy or thin. There is a slightly balsamic, resinous undertone that gives the fragrance a more grounded feel than many light green scents. That makes it feel more composed and a little more grown-up than a straightforward citrus aromatic.
On skin, the fragrance usually reads as moderate in projection and easier to wear than its sharp opening may suggest. The available performance data points to moderate to long lasting wear for many users, with mostly moderate sillage. In practice, that suggests a scent that stays present through the day without turning aggressive. It looks especially well suited to daytime use, which matches its fresh profile.
The best setting for 104 is spring, with summer also making good sense. It suits office wear, casual daytime use and any situation where you want something clean, green and put together. Because it is not sweet and not heavily woody, it may also appeal to people who want a fresh fragrance that feels more botanical than shower-gel clean.
This will not be for everyone. If you want lush sweetness, creamy florals or strong evening drama, 104 may feel too restrained and too green. The bitter orange and galbanum opening can also come across as pointed if your taste leans soft or sugary. But if you enjoy aromatic greens, watery florals and a natural outdoorsy feel, it is a distinctive take on fresh unisex perfumery.

Dupes & Alternatives
COMMUNITY DUPESCOREEvidence for direct dupes is too thin to make a firm match claim. In style, this sits in the green, botanical, fresh floral space, so it is better compared by mood than treated as a one-to-one copy of another fragrance. If you are shopping nearby styles, focus on other crisp green florals or aromatic spring scents rather than sweet citrus perfumes.
