About

Bold Incense opens with a fresh, slightly green violet leaf, quickly joined by the earthy, almost mineral richness of frankincense. A juicy plum note emerges in the heart, adding a subtle sweetness that rounds out the initial spice. The base settles into a dark, smoky accord, reminiscent of warm coal, maintaining an elegant warmth that's truly captivating. It's a journey from aromatic freshness to a smooth, sophisticated depth.
