By the editors · 2 min readIncense, frankincense, and bergamot open together — the frankincense and incense providing an immediately contemplative, slightly ecclesiastical quality, the bergamot softening the resinous opening with citrus brightness. The opening is distinctive from the first second.
Frankincense deepens in the heart alongside amber and iris. The incense accord becomes more resinous and warm, while iris adds a cool, powdery note that creates interesting contrast with the heat of the amber. The combination is unexpectedly refined for an Oriflame product.
Sandalwood, vanilla, and patchouli provide a smooth, warm base that extends the resinous heart into a rounded dry-down. Earthy and quietly hypnotic — an oriental incense fragrance at an accessible price that consistently surprises those expecting less.
