Incense crush Pepper and herbs in the open with incense immediately. Burnt/charred herb. Gets a bit dull and cardboardy with light pepper after this it continues with a smokey vibe. Smokey/peppery in the projection, the cardboard is only up close. The smoke vibe is very vetiver overall.
Projection in this is quite large. 'smoke incense, vetiver and sawdust bomb' were the words my partner used.
Doesn't change or evolve much after the initial charred herbs opening. Remains with smoke and peppery frankincense. There is no sweetness here, just dry smoky facets of wood and resin. Dark and heavy.
