What do reviewers say about La Cérémonie de l'Encens and Hala?
The Somalian olibanum carries a balsamic, almost sacred depth while the Malabar pepper softens the opening without harshness. It's a nuanced, meditative experience.La Cérémonie de l'Encens
Cedarwood overdose, some say. That's exactly the point. Hala doesn't hedge or soften, it arrives and commits. The frankincense-labdanan base is the real seduction: resinous, warm.Hala
