By the editors · 2 min read**Century** opens with a bright citrus wash—grapefruit and bergamot—that feels clean without veering into shower-gel territory. The effect is crisp but measured, more tailored shirt than beach towel.

As it settles, neroli adds a subtle floral bitterness, while cardamom and olibanum introduce a low, resinous warmth. The spice here isn't loud; it's the kind that lingers in good tailoring shops, mingling with wood and fabric. The frankincense stays polite, never tipping into cathedral solemnity.

The base is sandalwood-dominant, smooth and slightly creamy, with musk keeping everything close to the skin. This is boardroom-appropriate frankincense, a composition that nods to classic masculine structures without feeling derivative. It wears easily in professional settings, neither demanding attention nor disappearing entirely. For those who want incense without the mysticism, **Century** delivers a wearable, grown-up interpretation.
