    I love CdG Series 3, but especilly this scent. An incense-obsessive, it's smells just like my grandmother's eastern orthodox church (frankinscense & myrrh). Also, the packaging is minimal, so not a...

    I got a sample of this through swap. Its definitely a type of incense that is associated with being in a church. This is strong and comes out really pungent on me, so this scent is more for...

    Shockingly peppery right out of the bottle with a blinding blast of greens – think freshly chopped coriander and fennel - that quickly mellows into something more contemplative and timeless....

    I find this scent extremely contradictory. On one hand, it's extremely evocative for someone whos attended catholic or orthodox church with any regularity, and there are a whole bunch of...

    I love incense a LOT. This totally reminds me of the incense burned in the censeurs used in Catholic mass, and is very nostalgic for me. I received a sample of this through Luckyscent....

    It has a very nice dry down. It relaxes me. But then again, it smells like Moz, so what would you expect?

    I used to work for an rare/used occult bookseller; this fragrance takes me back to that time. This is the scent of things old, and rare, and dark and forbidden. Dusty books on rotting wooden...

    I wanted to love all the CdG Incense Series but this just does not work for me. I can't tolerate the opening notes on myself, (which I wish I was better at figuring out so I could stay away...

    Love all the incense scents from this line. This one has a little more wood in it. A keeper, for sure. Exotic.

    Avignon smells strongly of myrrh to me. Myrrh happens to be an essence I overdosed on in my early 20's, hence fragrances strong with myrrh don't appeal to me anymore. If you like myrrh, though,...

    Avignon is incense and aromatic herbs. It reminds me of a Catholic service being held in an old stone church with standing walls but no roof or windows, allowing the smell of the French...

    To be wearable (for me) a perfume should smell lovely, make me want to linger in the moment with it, and surround me with a cloud of something interesting, intriguing or comforting. Avignon did...

    Loving Avignon. Out of the bottle I seemed to get way to much sharp cedar... and it caused me (incorrectly) to think the scent would be too male. Wrong. In wearing it - the incense wafts...

    This smells SOOOO good! In fact, it smells EXACTLY like frankincense essential oil diluted to skin strength. The lasting power is a bit better than the oil, but considering the relative prices, I...

    Ok, I think many people here haven't been to Mass in awhile! This is certainly an incense smell but it's totally missing the burnt smoke tones. And funny enough, I was looking forward to exactly...
