Olibanum and nutmeg open the composition — frankincense smoke from the first moment, the nutmeg adding aromatic spice that frames the incense without domesticating it. The heart deepens the ritual: cinnamon, more incense, labdanum, cedar, and cardamom building a warm, spiced-resinous accord that references temple and meditation room.
Sandalwood, oakmoss, ambergris, and myrrh form the base — a serious, slow-burning foundation of resins and wood. Ambergris extends everything with marine-warm depth; myrrh adds dry, balsamic darkness. This is a fragrance for long wear on cold days, for those who appreciate incense-heavy orientals that move through stages of reverence rather than impulse.
