KoEptYs Nejma 2017

Nejma Koeptys is a lovely spicy, and semi-sweet, semi-floral mix, heavy on the resins (incense, benzoin) and spices (cinnamon, pink pepper) but not without a lovely floral mix jasmine, lily of the valley, and violet, and gourmand additives of vanilla and coconut to sweeten things up. It feels like a balanced, complete, and relatively easy-to-wear resinous scent that conjures being outdoors in market with the aromas of spicy and sweet food in the air, certainly cold-weather-leaning but not overly heavy / dense to the point that I would be uncomfortable wearing it indoors or at night in the summer.

Like the other fragrance I tried from Nejma, 7, Koeptys is a nice creation, and even though I wouldn’t likely rush to buy a bottle, as I feel there are plenty of great incense fragrances to choose from, I would certainly recommended that those interested in it try to seek out a sample.

Koeptys does not appear to be sold through retailers in the US, but rather, retailers in the Europe like Selfridges, Harrods, Harvel Nichols, and Essenza Nobile. Only Selfridges seems to have it in stock, and at $177 for 100ml, so not bad, and it appears to ship the US, then (if listed in USD).
