By the editors · 2 min readFrankincense opens with a resinous and slightly smoky character, immediately establishing a meditative and aromatic atmosphere. Lemon provides a sharp citrus contrast that brightens the incense without overwhelming its solemnity. Violet leaf and lily of the valley introduce a green and slightly powdery floral heart that feels crisp and dewy against the resinous base. Vetiver adds an earthy and rooty depth, while labdanum and benzoin contribute a balsamic sweetness that smooths the dry-down. The composition evolves from a smoky-citrus opening to a green-resinous heart and finally a warm, earthy base. Projection is moderate and steady, lasting six to eight hours with intimate sillage. Best worn in cool weather for formal or contemplative occasions.
