Frankincense & Myrrh Eau de Parfum

I don't usually leave reviews on Fragrantica, but I have to speak up on this one. I see one other review comparing this to church incense, and I think that's misguided feedback. This is not church incense. Yes, for that choose Comme des Garcons or Heeley, etc. This, however, is from a men's grooming line, and it has that citrus and mossy framework simmering under the incense, giving it a full-on masculine flavor and a spa-like reference point. I am a woman who sometimes wears masculine leaning scents, and this sings in the winter time especially. It's an excellent choice for a man who wants to smell solidly great, but not quite like everybody else. Or a woman like me.

Somehow never wrote a review for this one. It’s lovely in cold weather, I recommend for winter and fall only, especially late afternoon/ evening. Can be overwhelming and loses its charm in warmer weather, becomes very lemon and powder heavy. Its scent is warm, spicy, herbal and just lovely. Don’t get really any orange or much wood from it. Smells like winter and Christmas in a bottle but just without the pine tree. It’s pretty intimate in my usage so apply a little heavier. Lasts pretty long, I get 3-6hr. 9/10!

At first it smells like Jagermeister - herbal. Dry down smells earthy, benevolent, peaceful, moldy, mature. Definitely a grounding scent, I would put it next to my favorite the nue co mind energy. Longevity and projection are moderate. Unisex to male.

A low-key, slow burning incense , not too ecclesial, with a remnant of sandalwood. Not much projection. My slight disappointment with this one has sent me scurrying back to Heeley's Cardinal for a full-throated chorus of churchy tones.
