Launched in 2007 by Andy Tauer, 05 Incense Extreme is a complex Oriental Woody fragrance that captures the essence of smoky incense and warm spices. The composition opens with coriander and petitgrain, providing an aromatic freshness before diving into the heart where orris root and cedar create a woody, powdery warmth. The base notes of amber and woody accords solidify this scent as a rich, enveloping experience that is both smoky and balsamic.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance directly to pulse points for maximum warmth and depth. Given its rich base notes, it's best experienced close to the skin rather than diffused into the air. The smoky incense character emerges fully after about an hour.
