902 opens on fresh and zesty notes lent by orange, basil and ginger. Then in its heart, the intoxicating spicy heat of a cinnamon and clove duo takes us toward a more narcotic base. With odors of dried tobacco-scented leaves and the aromas of armagnac, the richness and intensity of this fragrance is fully revealed, giving way to a daring trail.
What is armagnac?
The aromas of armagnac naturally vary as it ages. It’s almost the same as with fragrances. Before our perfumes can be put on the market, the concentrates (the ingredients only, without the alcohol) are left to “mature”. This means that we give the raw materials the time to interact and come together. The next step is “maceration”. Alcohol is added and a “juice” is obtained. Time must also be allowed for the mixture to harmonize. Standing the test of time, the aromatic richness of armagnac is revealed; the ardor and floral freshness of its youth are slowly erased to yield more exotic, botanical, candied and spicy notes. It is impossible to give a single description of its scent as every armagnac differs according to its age and the way in which it has been worked.

Bon Parfumeur has done a great job with this one.This perfumes opens with a punch. A very loud and strong tobacco opens with citrus. Do not overspray. Wait a few minutes for the magic to happen. Slight nuances of leather and coffee start to emerge. A great perfume with great performance.

902 by Bon Parfumeur is an interesting fragrance, and the rating does not reflect IndieScents, however just the fragrance itself. It opens up with a wet feel of tobacco and citrus. Underneath it are coffee notes and vanilla. It seems like the fragrance doesn't know what it is for the first hour or so.. as it doesn't smell particular good. Just a mix of many different notes. It ultimately settles to a citrus-vanilla fragrance. Not for me, though I'm sure there are those who would enjoy the contrasting notes.
