Cool scent of incense from autumnal, woody depths
As if I were going with the current season, I had just bought this beautiful but underrated fragrance! And "fresh" it is too and fits well into the fall. Cool due to very specific citrus-infused smoke. Frankincense, myrrh, mysterious like November mist in the early morning. The fine droplets glisten silver on the grass, leaves and tree branches. Delicate cobwebs between blades of grass shine like tiny diamonds.
The forest exhales its woody, resinous scents. It is almost windless and very quiet. Only your own footsteps and the occasional soft cracking of twigs can be heard. Only the fragrances of wood, earth and these "magical" resins and smoke are not silent. They envelop you with autumn colors. Colorful, damp leaves, conifer resins, forest soil, damp fog.
"Does fog have a smell?" you might ask. To which I would answer YES. It collects scents from its surroundings and slowly releases them again. And in the autumnal depths of an "enchanted forest", a wonderfully wondrous and comforting mixture is created ;-))

The most realistic olibanum (frankincense) and cedar!
With the most authentic incense (olibanum) and cedar that I have ever tested.
Only Sorcinelli with al or Unum can be so realistic.
But what petit grain is in it and what labdanum...
It also has slightly animal accents, but discreet!
Never pushy but always present, Shanaan M. Micallef.
PS: I have known all types of coniferous resins since I was a child, my father was an engineer in the wood factory, back in my hometown, and I was there as a child, all types of coniferous and deciduous trees were there, that realistic smell of fir, spruce, hornbeam, found here and in many other creations.
Not to mention birch, ash, beech, oak...
Shanaan remains a true manifesto dedicated to the sacred resins of the East and also a pleasure for lovers of the genre, including myself!
Forever!

Subtle Cedar And Incense...
Very nice incense scent by Micallef here. I get the cedar note early on, quickly mixing with a nice dominant frankincense note with patchouli in a supporting role. This is a nice versatile scent that I could see working year-round just about in any situation. It stays pretty close to the skin, so if you are looking for a sillage monster, look elsewhere. My only minor gripe is that for an eau de parfum, it has just average longevity on my skin (which tends to be very scent friendly, longevity-wise as a general rule). Still, I can easily recommend Shanaan to incense and cedar lovers; Micallef has another 3.5 star out of 5 winner here.
