Encens Précieux
Spirit
Frankincense is the mythical origin of the word “perfume”, derived from the Latin word, perfumum, meaning “through smoke”, and refers to the burning of this rare ingredient. It comes from a tree that grows in desert regions of the East and takes the form of an aromatic gum-resin, which is harvested by tapping the bark.Ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman civilisations, prized and protected this precious substance.
Encens Précieux is a rich, sophisticated woody amber fragrance. This mysterious new scent seems to have captured all the heat of the desert landscapes that inspired it.

The intention
“Encens Précieux is a journey. I imagined the blazing sun beating down on the soil to give rise to a frankincense tree, and I wanted to capture the enveloping sensation of that hot air.”
