House of Bō Agua de Santos Parfum

What it smells like

Agua de Santos (‘Water of the Saints’) is a sophisticated, uplifting citrus aromatic inspired by the elegant fresh-water colognes of Mexico. It opens sparkling and clean, with juicy bergamot, lemon and a bright touch of neroli.

The heart is softly floral and green, with orange blossom and petitgrain lending an elegant, classic freshness. The base keeps it refined and quietly woody, with clean musk, cedar and vetiver. It is a crisp, effortlessly elegant citrus — sophisticated, wearable and instantly mood-lifting.

The full composition runs from top notes of Bergamot, Lemon, Neroli, through a heart of Orange Blossom, Petitgrain, to a base of Musk, Cedar, Vetiver — a citrus aromatic built to unfold slowly and wear close to the skin. The parfum is housed in House of Bō's signature bottle, finished with a hand-cut, semi-precious stone cap chosen to mirror the mood of the scent.

On skin its principal accords — Citrus, Aromatic, Fresh, Woody and Musky — layer into a rounded, characterful whole, and as a parfum-strength concentration it is built for rich projection and long wear. It is offered here in both a 40 ml and a larger 75 ml bottle.

As founder Bernardo Möller describes it: “Heaven in a bottle. This sweet citrus-floral perfume combines invigorating notes in a balanced composition.

Who made it

This parfum was composed by Rodrigo Flores-Roux, the celebrated Mexican-born perfumer and a senior perfumer at Givaudan. Raised in Mexico City with an early passion for botany, he built a distinguished career in New York and is widely admired for his work on the Arquiste line, Clinique Happy for Men, John Varvatos and Tom Ford's neroli and citrus creations — compositions praised for their vivid naturalism and emotional warmth. His luminous, richly textured signature, often drawing on the flora and light of Latin America, is exactly the sensibility House of Bō was founded to celebrate.

For House of Bō, Rodrigo shaped Agua de Santos as a bold, artistic parfum that translates this pedigree into the house's tropical, Latin-inflected style.
