The persuasive charm of an oriental woody fragrance gives off among the light silky folds of Frankincense.

Caldo Encens is an oriental woody fragrance with the signature of graceful notes of precious incense. Its persistence blends in an intimate embrace of pine resin and cedarwood. A long-lasting perfume fascinates and gives comfort like a luxuriant oasis among the dunes of a sun-drenched desert.

I choose Caldo Encens because…
  • "I'm already using oriental woody fragrances. I enjoy smelling incense and I’m intrigued by the most precious Frankincense"
  • "I adore the idea to wear a perfume that evokes oriental spirit filled with local markets, spices and incenses"
  • "I'd love to try an original incense fragrance that has nothing to do with classic scents of the most common incenses"
  • "I'm looking for an oriental fragrance with natural raw materials, a fragrance that will embrace me with its warm woody notes"

Caldo Encens comes from the idea to create an incense fragrance in a modern context: not as intense as classic incenses but more gentle, clean, crisp and sunny. It is a spirit that lifts you up with the nuances of the rarest Frankincense.

    The best review according to Officina delle Essenze!

    Premise: I absolutely do not like incense! I discovered Officina delle Essenze several years ago—Osmarine was my first love at first scent. I loved it, but now I was looking for something more wintry. I decided to buy all the samples and try them on my skin. I started with the “Puri”: Talco, Lino, Neroli, etc. All very good, but not for now. I continued with the “Caldi”. Some were too sweet, others too woody. Then, very slowly, I got to Caldo Encens. I expected the usual incense smell, but instead I was fascinated. No incense—I smell green notes, woods, but also powdery tones, resin and this balsamic note that stays on my skin. I find it a mysterious, intriguing, intimate fragrance. I also like it because it doesn’t leave an overwhelming trail—it’s delicate, yet bold, captivating, and soothing. And that’s it—today I went back to the shop where I first met Osmarine, and I came home with him, my Caldo Encens. Thank you 🖤

    When trying the fragrance, I expected something dry and strong, pure incense to be exact, so I thought I wouldn’t like it. However, this fragrance is spectacular because it’s a super fresh incense. I never thought I could associate the word incense with fresh, but honestly, on my skin, this fragrance is amazing, probably thanks to the top notes of pine. The longevity is endless, I sprayed it at 6 pm and the next morning I could still smell it on my skin and sheets. Highly recommended! It’s perfect for a man, but I also see it on a woman who wants to be elegant or for a work dinner. Truly worth trying, because describing it doesn’t do justice to how unique it is.

    Very good at first. It reminded me of the incense in churches. Then it changes quickly, fading into a thousand facets that are difficult to identify. Complex and mysterious. But that’s exactly why it’s such an intriguing and beautiful fragrance. Really well done, because handling incense is not an easy task…

    I bought it after getting the Discovery Kit. Among the many great fragrances, I was struck by this one, which has pleasant woody notes that blend with incense. Truly excellent!

    Masculine scent, well crafted and fine blended. You smell resin and pine, warm, with strong but fine projection. Not for everybody, well suited for men, not boys or teens, between 35-55. It is a fragrance for MEN.

    A modern incense, which doesn’t get tiring despite being persistent. Engulfing and fresh at the same time, excellent balance.

    I discovered Officina delle Essenze through an advertisement on Facebook. I read a few reviews and decided to give it a try. I thought the incense would be more “pure,” but it didn’t meet my expectations.

    Let me start by saying that I’m not judging the quality of the product—I would give it 5 stars—but my expectation was different. After searching online for a fragrance with frankincense, I purchased Caldo Encens. I find it very sweet and without the resinous note I was hoping for. I probably should have tried the 2.5 ml sample first. Thank you anyway!

      Answer from Officina delle Essenze

      We’re really sorry that the fragrance didn’t meet your expectations, Stefano! Luckily, you purchased only the 10 ml size and not a larger one. For the benefit of others reading your words, we just want to clarify a couple of things. From a purely olfactory perspective, it seems that in this case, some nuances may not have been perceived as they really are. Caldo Encens is indeed not only rich in Frankincense, but it also contains a generous dose of pine resin, clearly noticeable in the top notes of the fragrance. In any case, dear Stefano, we want to thank you for giving it a try. We hope you’ll have the chance to rediscover Caldo Encens, perhaps trying it again in a month far from this hot July 😊
