Our verdict on Smoke of Desert: Statement

Divisive, but with a dedicated fanbase, Simone Andreoli's Smoke of Desert opens with an intoxicating smoky incense that, for some, dries down to a less complex woody leather. It's a statement scent, loved for its magnetic presence and unique take on incense.

Its bold, smoky, and resinous accords, alongside reports of strong performance, make it too prominent for most office settings, though a light hand could make it work. It truly shines as a 'night moves' or date scent due to its magnetic and intimate character. The scent's warmth and unique profile also lend themselves well to formal events, but it's far too heavy and complex for anything sporty.

About

Imagine stepping into an ancient desert temple, just as the incense smoke begins to curl. That's the initial hit of Smoke of Desert, with its mysterious, almost churchy incense and smoky elemi. As it settles, a warm, resinous balsamic amber emerges, softening the edges with cashmere wood, before finally resting on a smooth, understated leather base. Hints of herbal absinth weave throughout, adding an intriguing, slightly bitter freshness.
