By the editors · 2 min readFenicia opens with a bright lemon that quickly gives way to a spiced heart — cinnamon and clove assert themselves early, with nutmeg adding a dry edge and olibanum lending a resinous lift. Rose threads through without dominating, kept in check by the surrounding spice.
The base deepens steadily: sandalwood and benzoin bring a creamy warmth, while saffron adds a leathery, slightly metallic quality. Patchouli and myrrh ground everything with earthy resin. Tonka bean rounds the edges into something softer.
Overall, this reads as a spiced oriental with genuine depth — warm, resinous, and layered. The spice-to-resin transition feels deliberate, making it suited to cool-weather wear.
