Description
Olibanum Gardenia is a mesmerizing Oriental Floral fragrance that masterfully balances the sacred essence of frankincense with the soft, creamy sweetness of gardenia. This unisex composition begins with an invigorating burst of lime, coconut, and neroli, then unveils its spiritual heart where olibanum takes center stage, harmoniously blended with resinous labdanum and elegant gardenia. The base grounds itself in cedarwood and sandalwood, creating a lingering mystical aura that stays close to the skin with calm sophistication. The enigmatic composition delights with mystical and spiritual energy that protects, ennobles, and accompanies moments when dreams come true.
