What does Encens Divin smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It suits both men and women.

It opens spicy with black pepper, ginger and pink pepper. The heart brings Atlas cedar, Texas cedar, frankincense, Persian rose absolute and nagarmotha, giving a smoky, woody backbone. In the base, tolu balm, benzoin, vanilla absolute and amber sweeten it into a powdery, gourmand warmth. Guerlain Bois d'Arménie and Kenzo Amour Le Parfum have a close profile.
