By the editors · 2 min readOlibanum opens with a resinous, slightly smoky aroma that feels both ancient and meditative. Ginger, saffron, and nutmeg quickly impart a warm-spicy heart that is earthy, peppery, and richly aromatic against the frankincense. Sandalwood adds a creamy, smooth woodiness that bridges the spices to the base. Oud emerges as a dominant force, lending a dark, woody character that is leathery and slightly animalic without being aggressive. Tonka bean and amber provide a sweet, balsamic foundation that softens the oud’s intensity and adds warmth. The scent evolves significantly, from spicy-resinous to a sweet-woody dry-down with substantial longevity and moderate sillage. Suited for cooler evenings and formal settings, it offers depth and complexity.
