The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2014, Encens Satin by Giorgio Armani is a scent that blends the warmth of incense with a rich, balsamic depth. Created by perfumer Marie Salamagne, it opens with smoky and warm spicy notes before settling into an amber and woody base that feels both intimate and expansive. The fragrance aligns with Giorgio Armani's legacy of Italian elegance, offering a sophisticated blend that is as much about the quiet confidence of its wearer as it is about the composition itself.

How to wear it

Encens Satin has a long-lasting woody base that blooms over time. Apply it lightly to pulse points in the morning for an all-day warmth that deepens as you go about your day.
