Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Date Casual

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its unique, warm, and resinous character, make it less suitable for a professional office setting. It's better suited for evenings, cooler weather, and intimate dates where its complex notes can be appreciated without being overpowering. Casual wear is possible, especially in autumn, but it might be too distinctive for some formal events.

About

Solstice Kyphi is a thick, resinous blend. Frankincense and myrrh give it a smoky, incense-like core, while labdanum adds a dark, sticky warmth. Honey, beeswax and raisin bring a sweet, waxy richness, and red wine adds a deep, fruity darkness. Lemongrass, cassia and galangal add a sharp, spicy lift so the sweetness does not become heavy. The result is an opulent, warm and unusual scent that sits somewhere between incense and dessert. It will not suit everyone, but those who enjoy resinous, honeyed fragrances will find plenty to explore.
