What does Via dell'Incenso smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it makes itself felt without filling the room. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. It is chosen most often for leisure and evening wear. Voters tend to read it as masculine and classic.

It opens with lemon, bergamot and cedar, a fresh, green citrus start. The heart of elemi resin, coriander and cashmeran adds a soft, spicy turn. In the base, pine, gaiac wood and frankincense bring out the woody, smoky side, with a faintly sweet resin left behind. Heretic Dirty Hinoki and Molinard Citrus Noir have a close profile.
