Amouage
Opus XII Rose Incense
$380
This fragrance marries the spiritual richness of incense with the lush beauty of Damask rose. Opening with olibanum, elemi, and ink-like facets, it reveals a complex heart centered on rose and incense, before settling into a base of myrrh, sandalwood, vanilla, and cedar. It’s a contemplative, resinous rose scent for those who appreciate opulent depth.
