Series 3: Incense Avignon

THE INCENSE IN A GOTHIC, FRENCH CATHEDRAL

Powderful and intense, Avignon portrays the medieval city in southern France that surpassed Rome as the center of Catholic Church power in the 14th century.

The scent of Gothic cathedrals and papal palaces, with tapestries steeped in centuries of incense. A scent of cold marble stairs, holy relics and dark confessions.

Frankincense and myrrh open the High Mass in Avignon and give way to the smoky heart that almost makes the eyes water with resin. Dry vanilla and Roman chamomile soften this reverent scent. Beautiful, dark and mysterious, Avignon takes its place among the most talked about and loved fragrances from CdG.
