What do reviewers say about Indigo Smoke and Encens?
Calice Becker sidesteps every smoky fragrance cliché here. Instead of a fireplace, you get a cold mountain morning with pine and incense drifting from a temple somewhere out of frame.Indigo Smoke
Incense for the skeptic. It doesn't smoke. It doesn't need to. Cool resin, soap-soft myrrh, amber that sits close and warm, harder to find than you'd think.Encens
