Any Frankincense heavy scent will naturally evoke the main reference perfumes like CDG Avignon, Mark Birley etc... depending on which direction they go in. To me this is reminiscent of Reve d'Ossian by Oriza Legrand and that's praise indeed because despite what I see as disparate vibes (which could be prone to clashing) coming together, it works. In fact it makes for a really interesting creamy effect to a highly resinous perfume. I'd say the resins are green, sharp, translucent, fizzy, and citrus tinged. It smells of very high quality olibanum, and elemi or mastique backed by some heavier stuff, even benzoin perhaps linking into what is to me a vanilla type base. There's a really fine line when adding milky/creamy to sharp & angular you've gotta watch it doesn't become curdled and gross like a Cedrat boisee (Puke!) or something. I really like the effect of this and although I can draw comparisons and say this isn't unique, it's not a case of a stock. forgettable incense release which shows no flare at all. It's good, from a good brand which offers some excellent fragrances at a reasonable price.
