HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1933 by Henry Creed Fourth Generation, Angelique Encens is a lasting and theatrical Oriental Floral fragrance that has fascinated its wearers for nearly a century. The composition opens with the fresh greenness of angelica, leading into a heart of tuberose, rose, and jasmine, before settling into an amber base spiced with vanilla and incense. This scent was favored by the legendary screen siren Marlene Dietrich, embodying both elegance and mystique.
Apply one to two sprays to pulse points; the amber base gradually warms up over time. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than filling a room, so layer it under clothing for maximum impact.
