About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Incense Gold opens with the full top of the composition: incense, saffron, leather, citruses and flowers arriving together rather than in sequence. The result is a smoky, ambered entry where the resinous incense dominates and the citruses and flowers keep it from turning heavy. Saffron adds a dry, warm-spicy edge, while leather gives the opening a firm, slightly metallic texture that collectors of leather-incense masculines will recognise. No heart or base notes are listed, so judge the scent by its opening accord and the accords below.

The accord profile is unambiguous: smoky at 100%, amber at 98%, warm spicy at 96%, with leather at 78%, balsamic at 68% and a metallic facet at 51%. This is a dense, resinous oriental built for cool weather and evening wear, and it suits collectors who want a smoky amber masculine rather than a fresh or floral one. Those sensitive to strong incense or metallic leather should sample first; the 2016 release is discontinued, so buy with attention to batch and storage.

中文簡介

呢支 Incense Gold 以乳香、番紅花、皮革、柑橘同花香一齊開場,無分明嘅中調同基調,所以判斷重點落喺前調同整體和諧度。乳香主導,帶出煙燻同樹脂感;番紅花添上乾燥暖辣;皮革令開頭更結實,仲有一絲金屬感;柑橘同花香就負責提亮,令整體唔會太沉。

主和弦顯示煙燻 100%、琥珀 98%、暖辣 96%,皮革 78%、香脂 68%、金屬 51%,屬於濃郁嘅東方型男香。氣質偏成熟、內斂而有存在感,適合秋冬夜晚、正式場合或者想低調但有氣場嘅時候用。對乳香或金屬皮革敏感嘅收藏家建議先試香;2016 年出品已停產,入手時要留意批次同保存狀況。
