Our verdict on Vert d'Encens: Acquired

A truly unique green-amber scent that divides opinion but clearly captivates. It's either an addictive, mysterious forest floor dream or a cloying, messy confusion. Try before you buy, if you can even find it given its cult-favourite discontinued status.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, combined with its distinct, somewhat 'gothic' woody-amber character, make it less suitable for office wear. However, its complex blend is highly appropriate for evening dates and formal events, though some find it versatile enough for sophisticated casual wear.

About

Imagine wandering through a dense, resinous pine forest where the air is thick with the scent of crushed fir needles and sticky tree sap. This fragrance opens with an intense, bracing green blast, quickly softened by a sweet, powdery heliotrope that brings a surprising creamy floral, almost gourmand, edge. Incense subtly weaves through, adding a smokiness that deepens the woody, balsamic accords, leading to a plush, enduring base.
