Incense Flash, from Tauerville was released in 2015. The perfumer behind this creation is Andy Tauer. The notes are Incense, Leather, Musk, Woody Notes.
Something made me think this was going to be a very lovely but straight forward Olibanum/Galbanum, fresh, fizzy, green incense...I don't know what gave me that impression because it has the classic signature of Andy Tauer daubed all over it. There's olibanum charm here for sure but Incense Flash is very dry, slightly dirty and full of dense woodsy character. This is kind of incense which possesses virtually no sweetness whatsoever. Like a dry amber accord, that old bookcase vibe but without the warmth and instead more oily with all the exotic charm of the Marrakesh markets he seems to cram into his scents. This is very good and right up my street so many incense fragrances disappoint me, not by being bad just the same tired fragrance I've smelled a million times. Tauer has created an interesting resinous scent here, more in the style of L'ADDM or Lonestar memories than Incense extreme (which I found a bit dull) so credit to him.
