Perris Monte Carlo Encens Sacré Eau de Parfum 100 ml N02420-02

“Incense, the ancient essence of the soul, has traversed the millennia, suspended between earth and sky. In the rituals of the earliest civilizations, it burned as a sacred offering, carrying dreams and prayers towards the divine. We retraced the paths of incense and chose the most peculiar quality for us, sourced from Somalia. Its scent captivated, pervaded, and intoxicated us...” (travel notes)The essence of incense comes from the resin of the Boswellia carterii tree. The best quality comes from Somalia. The harvesting period runs from November to February; during this time, the tree bark is incised to allow the resin to drip. After a few days, the resin hardens, forming gum, which is then ready for essential oil extraction.ENCENS SACRÉ was born from the quest for a sublime balance between two olfactory nuances of incense: the essence extracted by distillation, with a sweet, mineral, balsamic note, and the essence obtained through high-temperature distillation, which offers the true impression of burnt incense, paying homage to the ancient art of fumigation. Supporting this duality is a floral heart of Moroccan Rose and Jasmine, and a warm base of Amber, Patchouli, and Sandalwood.A complex, intimate, meditative fragrance.”
