The story behind the bottle.
Full Incense by Montale, launched in 2010 and crafted by Pierre Montale, is a fragrance that captures the essence of incense in its purest form. Dominated by Somalia incense notes, it features elemi and labdanum resins along with cedar and patchouli, creating an earthy, smoky, warm, and woody composition suitable for both sexes. The incense at the heart of this fragrance is rounded out by the richness of balsamic and spicy accords, making it a truly immersive experience.
Apply Full Incense in light layers; its smoky and woody base notes bloom slowly over time. It's best worn close to the skin for an intimate experience rather than projecting across a room.
