Real talk
Rose doesn't soften incense here. It refines it, adds an elegance that turns smoky warmth into something a jeweler would recognize. If you've been burned by heavy orientals.Reve d'Encens
This is not the amber of amber-filled cookies or syrups. It is raw, resinous, and aggressively warm, with herbal and savory notes that emerge depending on your skin chemistry.Ambre Sultan
