MIZENSIR Incensum EDP 100 ml Incensum pays homage to Kōdō, the ancient Japanese ceremony. The fragrance is an olfactory reinterpretation of an ancient Japanese art, one of the most complex and refined that has ever existed. In Japan, it is said that one “listens” to the scent, which calms the body, mind and soul. In the Kōdō ritual, guests are arranged around the master of ceremonies and the braziers, in which a small piece of fragrant wood or a resin slowly burns on incandescent charcoal. They are passed from hand to hand, and each person concentrates in silence on the delicate aroma of the plumes of smoke and is invited, from time to time, to write, on the same sheet of paper, the emotions, the thoughts that “listening” to the emanations evokes. The master of ceremonies will then read the resulting composition from which a poem will be born. The mastery and sensitivity of a great perfumer like Alberto Morillas pays homage to Kōdō in a meeting between East and West in a very clear contrast between woods and spices, a dualism that is harmonious and blends with the depth of myrrh, papyrus and an accord of leather and woods.
