Thurible
Thurible by Rook Perfumes is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with clove, sage and black pepper, moves into labdanum, frankincense, rose and patchouli and dries down to sandalwood, ambergris, musk and oakmoss. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.
- Sage Dry, herbal and slightly bitter. Adds a grown-up, aromatic edge.
- Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
Heart
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
