What does Encens / Reserve Edition - Encens Liquide smell like?

Its longevity is rated good while its sillage stays moderate, so it lasts on skin without projecting far. It reads as unisex and suits anyone who prefers a scent that sits close.

Hinoki resin and amber form the backbone, black tea adds a dry edge, and white musk wraps everything in a powdery softness. The floral and spicy sides stay in the background, while earthy and oriental tones carry the weight.
