Timeless classics

Encens Roi

Sale price195.00 €

Under fruity and herbaceous rays of Roman Chamomile, the mineral and zesty sparkle of Olibanum CO2 meets the woody and almost salty freshness of Schinus Molle, together evoking the crackling bark of Incense Trees and their resin, passively exuding their resinous effluvia in scorching desert winds. Drawn by an uplifting yet carnal Atlas Cedarwood, Saffron unfolds the richness of its leather and tobacco undertones, its sheen and its temper, Turkey-red splatters lit up by spicy embers of Pimento Berry. Olibanum and Saffron, the divine and the profane, the Abrahamic and the Babylonian, each enriching their song, one with the mystical, ecstatic, mystagogic darkness of Oud and the balsamic warmth of Cistus; the other with decadent and overdosed accents of White Cacao and Vanilla, regressive, impious and gourmand. Interlaced billows of sweet and cold smokes; a path of pleasure and a path of enlightenment; the resin of gods and of princes: Encens Roi collects the tales of a Humanity that has never ceased to hope.

The perfect incense fragrance

I've been searching for the perfect incense-based fragrance for some time. Sounds simple but for me it had to tick a lot of boxes. It had to transport me to medieval church in 19th century Paris but it had to have complexity and not be overwhelming. This ticks all the boxes. Certainly more of an autumn/winter perfume but it also works on a wet, dull summer day.

Blow your mind!

Encens Roi is amazing! It the best Histoires de Parfum I have tried so far. It borders on the masculine side, but can still be worn by a woman. This smell will make you feel more confident.

It has a touch of “Arabic” with oud, but is balanced with all the other amazing extracts. It is not a sweet smell.

It can be worn in the Middle East any day, or else where during the Fall or Winter. I am in love with Encens Roi!

King indeed!

WOW WOW WOW!
I may not find the right words to describe this but if you like resins and frankincense this is a first place winner. It's full bodied, churchy, balsamic, very masculine, powerful and a beast in terms of longevity and projection, it stays on my skin for 8-9 hours and I can still smell it after having a shower.
Perfect for autumn/winter but definitely something to use anytime you fell like. 10/10.
