What wearers say
“If you want cacao and incense, try Pour Revere by Maison Violet (weaker) and Cocoa Kimaya by Atelier des Ors (beast). Not sure if CK has incense but it smells like it does and that's good enough for me. Similar vibe but much smokier, Iris Ebene by Matiere. Pour Revere is $110 for 50mL and Cocoa Kimaya is very pricey at $400+ for 100mL.”
“This would be so much better if it were slightly stronger. It smells nice but it’s exceptionally weak.It’s really only a skin scent.Longevity - 5/10Sillage - 3/10Price - 3/10Thumbs down from me unfortunately.”
“This is so beautiful - sweet and spicy incense transitioning into vanilla and cocoa in the drydown. Very similar to Encens Suave - it came out before ES so wondering if it was created by Aurelien Guichard who then decided to incorporate it into his own Matiere Premiere brand. Have used up a 50ml bottle and working through a 100ml. Love it!”
