The quiet intimacy of a library where the scent of aged books mingles with the lingering smoke from a just-extinguished candle.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2014 by Miller Harris, La Fumée Intense is crafted by Lyn Harris and stands as an aromatic and smoky composition that evokes the essence of incense and oud. The fragrance opens with elemi and lavender, providing a fresh spicy aroma, which seamlessly transitions into warm spices like cardamom and coriander. At its core, La Fumée Intense features agarwood (oud), patchouli, and chamomile, creating an enveloping smoky and balsamic atmosphere.

How to wear it

Apply sparingly to let the smoky and woody notes develop gradually on your skin. This fragrance is best worn in cooler settings, as the warmth of its base notes can feel overpowering during warmer weather.
