Aedes de Venustas Musc Encense ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 10 April 2018 16 Comments

West Village niche perfume boutique Aedes de Venustas will launch Musc Encensé, a new unisex fragrance, in June.

With Musc Encensé, AEDES DE VENUSTAS matches the most spiritual of ingredients, the house’s signature incense note, with the most sensual of accords.

[...] Suede-smooth, slightly feral, subtly sexy, Ralf Schwieger’s tribute to Tonkin musk takes on AEDES DE VENUSTAS’ signature incense in a bold blend of the mystic and the animal.

To couple smoke and flesh, the perfumer adds an ambery accord that runs through the fragrance. Clary sage shoots aromatic accents through the top notes. The skin, sand and driftwood facets of cashmeran fuses the cool, mineral scent of incense with the animalic warmth of musk. A lick of tonka clouds the blend with almond-milk creaminess…

Aedes de Venustas Musc Encensé will be available in in 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

      Me too, although the last few haven’t worked as well for me as the early ones.

    I smelled it in Milan and talked to Ralf Schwieger too. It’s a great perfume, very clear and transparent for an incense and musk composition.

    Hmm, the notes sound perfect. I’m actually thinking about hosting a blind split. Ok, calm down, get a sample first.

    So I am the minority who thinks this sounds boring. There are so many skin/musk scents new these days. The type that make people think ‘is it a fragrance or is it a nice body odor?’ I want to realize I chose a great perfume! I love AdV/Schwieger Iris Nazarena btw.
