HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2008 by Andy Tauer, 06 Incense Rose is an Oriental Floral fragrance that combines the warmth of incense with the elegance of Bulgarian rose. The composition opens with a burst of citrus and aromatic notes like clementine and cardamom before transitioning into a heart of rich resins, myrrh, and orris root. This creates a smoky, balsamic atmosphere that is further enhanced by woody accords from Texas cedar and vetiver, grounding the scent in earthy complexity.
Apply this fragrance sparingly to allow its complex layers to unfold gradually. The smoky base notes take time to develop, so give it an hour to fully reveal itself on the skin. It’s best suited for evenings or cooler weather when you want a scent that lingers without overpowering.
