I was excited by the prospect of this series, though only Jaisalmer and Ouazazate hit the mark with me, and I refuse to buy even those because of their unforgivably minute lifespan. That's a...

An incense with depth. Very nice. Not too masculine; could easily and happily wear this when I'm in the "must have incense!" mood.

I have read reviews about the series "Incense" and have been intrigued with it. So I purchased the samples of "Kyoto" and "Zagorsk" from the luckyscent.com. It is a wonderful online retailer, which...

Obviously this one doesn't work for everyone. get a nice complex incense that primarily reminds me of Sandalwood in the Japanese manner. It's a good wearable Comme/Garcons incense, which is the...

Love this? Please,be smart&buy "Incense" by Matthew Williamson instead - for a near fraction of this overpriced Kyoto. Matthew Williamsons smells niche & exklusive. Compare these two & save your...

Not sure what this is, the out of this world descriptions compared to the actual scent does not match up for me. This is definitely not the soothing, gentle and hypnotic fragrance of the incense...

This is my HG fragrance. Smooth, fresh, like sitting in a forest and listening to trickling water. One of the few fragrances I have that I love year-round and can wear any time, it's simultaneously...

It was the concept, name, and reviews of Avignon that initially attracted me to CdG's Incense series. After carefully reading through the notes and descriptions, however, I decided that while all...

This is probably my favourite scent in the world - it’s austere and meditative and calls to mind a dark prayer in a cool, shadowy forest temple.

Lovely dry wood/incense scent, very meditative, very calming--you just want to breathe deeply and close your eyes when you sniff it. If you love Tam Dao, Passage d'Enfer, and Ava Luxe No. 23, you...

I love how this scent has such a quietness about it. It's not typical of a incense/woody fragrance genre that have a tendency to be bold and overpowering. This is sublte, stays close to the body,...

Finally, an incense scent I like. Subtle but deep. Better than Lacroix' Tumulte for men. Definitely worth a buy!!

Kyoto is a great fragrance for a peaceful mood (whether you have one, or you're trying to move into one). The incense is of the meditative sort. The woods are calming, but it isn't sleepy or...

I rarely finish an entire bottle of a perfume. This one .. I am on my second bottle now. Ironically, I am not really into incesy, woody and spicy scents at all. However, Kyoto really revolutionises...

I just tried my first perfumes from Incense series: Kyoto and Avignon. I must say that my vote goes to Avignon. Although most people here say they found Kyoto the darker of the two, for me it was...

I finally had a chance to try a few of the CDG Incense series. When I was trying to pick out which ones to sample, several people mentioned getting Kyoto and Avignon as both were very different....

This is one of my favorite fragrances of all time. My hb likes it too, so we fight over it. It smells light, incense-y, and a little medicinal. Very clean. But the whole is greater than the sum...

This fragrance is a definite winner for me! I bought this and Avignon unsniffed and for once, I feel vindicated since I love them both. While they are similar, Kyoto is more smokey and dark than...

It is inexplicable why, in the sweltering days of summer in Houston, Texas, I have had an urge to explore Comme des Garcons' Incense and Wood Series. It makes no sense and moreover, I did not grow...

I am working through my sample of Kyoto, hoping to find one of the CdG incense series to love. So far, this is my favorite: the incense feels quiet and somewhat green compared to the church organ...
