Incense next level
Do you know that you like a fragrance so much, but you do not know how to express this? You don't want to sound exuberant. Then maybe someone else feels it completely differently and thinks to themselves, "What? This is now the scent that was so highly praised?" But you know what? Zero fox given!!!
So right now I'm testing a lot and there have been three scents lately that have made me fall asleep in bed at night with a smile. All three were from Matiere Premiere and one of them was of course Encens Suave. Whenever I open the lid and smell it briefly I think "Boah is this good" and the next time "Boah is this good" and the next time, well you know.
To the fragrance:
After spraying on a surge rises first of all. Like when you bake a cake and then opens the oven door. It smells incredibly good but also lets you back away briefly.
You can't expect wonder what scent progressions here. The theme is incense and that all the time. This gets through the coffee but a great harmonious note to it. Even slight hints of dark chocolate. As it progresses, the whole thing becomes a bit tamer and more pleasing due to the vanilla. But beware, the scent takes no prisoners. One will look around for you and for a very long time. So maybe better not wear in the office.
Aurélien Guichard is a true artist and manages to highlight individual fragrance notes and thus raise them to the next level and in a unique way.
Signature worthy

A very addictive smell, almost magical
I had the chance to try Radical Rose and I was impressed with the quality of the smell, it is not a perfume for me but it brought Matiere Premiere into my radar.

During the last haul purchase I considered to blind buy the Encens Suave, because it´s the best rated on Parfumo and it has some notes which I like, such as Frankincense, Coffee and Vanilla.

When I first smelled it, it started strong with frankincense so I thought it´s a mistake and should go into the Souk right away, because I have Royal Incense which smells like Omani FI so makes no sense to have another one like it.

And after 20 min it started to come to life.

The benzoin ambery note mixed with the coffee is just something to die for, not overly sweet, not overly bitter .. just right mix between them. And even longer in the dry-down, the vanilla also comes into play and it mixed with the other high quality ingredients to create a very addictive smell.

It would be great to wear at work, out, at a party and also for your own satisfaction on the couch .. I do not see it leaning neither feminine nor masculine so the perfumer has created here the perfect Perfume Jolly:

- Great for every occasion, suitable for each season and pure unisex.

This bottle is here to stay, chapeau monsieur AURÉLIEN GUICHARD !

Incense for beginners
This fragrance took me into the depths of niche fragrances. It was the first of many fragrances that made me fall in love with perfume. Sounds very theatrical, but it all started with this one.

It was suggested to me by a good friend who thought I would definitely like incense perfumes. I don't know how he came up with it. I'm still grateful to this day.

I have fond memories of it. The first time I smelled the atomizer and could absolutely believe how good a perfume can smell. I had never smelled anything like it before, as this fragrance is completely different from all the others I had been able to test up to that point. I didn't get to grips with the exact DNA until later.

Now to the fragrance: I personally find it relatively linear, so it doesn't really develop. That's not a problem for me, but if you want a complex fragrance whose notes emerge to varying degrees over time, you're probably in the wrong place.

Ultimately, this fragrance is an incense beast. However, it is not acrid or pungent, but very pleasant and tamed by the vanilla and coffee. The notes together make this fragrance incredibly round and gentle. However, this should not detract from the super H/S, which is definitely there. I would also say that the use of the fragrance should be limited to the cold season, the radiance in summer is (in my opinion) too engaging. In fall/winter, however, I could wear it every day and look forward to using this fragrance again when the time comes. This warm and cozy feeling that is triggered by this fragrance is indescribable.

But those were really all the thoughts I had in my head and hopefully I have put them into this review in a comprehensible way. The Encens Suave definitely deserves more attention!

A soothing incense
Matiere Premiere, raw material: the philosophy of this French brand is precisely to center its fragrances around essences of precious natural ingredients of the highest quality, surrounded by a few other notes that enhance their various characteristics.
Aurélien Guichard, with encens suave, wanted to pay homage to the incense of Somalia.
It is clearly in the lead; it does not, however, give a church-like feel. On the contrary, notes of roasted coffee and vanilla take over shortly after the enhancement, which sweeten and soften the fragrance.
The name is very apt: encens suave, sweet, suave incense, which when you smell it puts your mind at ease and makes you feel good.

Soothing.

Sweet smoke
This is an incense scent I can finally get behind - true to name, this scent is warmed up and ever so slightly rounded out and sweetened by the labdanum. While I didn't immediately pick up the coffee, my spouse commented it has a faint cocoa vibe, which I did then detect and I think my brain sometimes conflates cocoa with coffee. I already have a bottle of Babycat, which this does remind me of, but I think Encens Suave is less vanilla-forward? I got a 6ml to test and am considering a fb because this is delicious - love at first wear for me.

What an addictive scent! A nice smoke, spicy, with a resinous and sweet base. Coffee in the opening, then vanilla, benzoin and labdanum.

Addicting, alluring, immoral. Unadultered ecstasy. Christmas treats, church incense, a bit daunting, a suave sinner. Captivating.

A high quality churchy incense-amber scent. Artistic and very good performance. However, not for me.

Sweet, clean smoke. Not ashy, or dusty, or churchy, or earthy. Sort of like caramel or toffee vaporised. Linear but still pretty delicious.
