If only every day were Sunday....
...., I think to myself as soon as I even suspect this scent.
Or Encense - translates to: Golden Incense - is a creation that I would like to wear more often, but which almost evokes an aura of holiness in me. A feeling which I can not apply on normal weekdays. A feeling as if it were a holiday or at least Sunday. Do you know something like that?
Or Encens is one of those fragrances that I discovered a while ago more by chance than I had planned to buy. Even the fashion house Issey Miyake itself was not known to me. The main fragrance for men has been around since 1994, and the question of the stone under which I must have dozed opens up to me. All the more, since I know this fragrance from my childhood - the Or Encens.
Remember that time when you went away with the family? To other places. Dreamy little villages. For ice cream. To visit grandma and grandpa It was not uncommon to see the odd rose hedge. Sometimes beautifully maintained. Another time defiantly proliferating. And the smell. I'd like to swear my nose was much more alert and interested in my childhood. A scent like that stays in your memory I remember times of light-heartedness. It was often Sunday. Even during the week I often had that Sunday feeling. I liked to get up early, because otherwise I'd miss something. It was not unusual for something to be going on. Birthdays were celebrated. Holidays. Swimming pool visits. Nature parks were visited. And again and again I saw roses here and there. And I could smell them I loved the peaceful village idyll that arose here and there. The scent of roses fitted perfectly into this picture. Just turn it off. Let the time pass by.
There's something noble about this fragrance, even vintage. With a load of roses in the opening, spices in the heart and wood notes in the base, this fragrance doesn't seem so unusual at first. Many modern fragrances today have a similar scent DNA. I say this because I myself am discovering more and more of such fragrances. Be it Eros Flame by Versace (rather creamy, with vanilla in the main concept, but it's there) or L'Homme Ideal EDP by Guerlain (also comes very close). But also from the house of Issey Miyake itself the Nuit D'issey Noir Argent. Flowery, spicy, woody. A well-kept recipe, which nevertheless can be redefined again and again.
Therefore Or Encens differs substantially. The basic DNA reminds of Pour Homme Intense. This slightly soothing incense chord is there. The woods below are slightly smoky, finely spicy and sweetish. And just the top notes, which bloom with rose pride. Here, a great job has been done.
Or Encens is one of those fragrances that lighten my mood. That's why I can't wear it every day. Some things can just be addictive. Memories. Fragrances. A combination of both. It would be a waste if I wanted to feel like this every day. I still have to keep it special Therefore I wear L'eau D'issey Or Encens only on Sundays and holidays. But not every Sunday either.
If only every day were a Sunday. I'd either be a child again or an addicted adult
