How it moves

You meet apple, pepper and cypress at the door. Then the heart turns up — incense, myrrh, opoponax and fir — and the whole thing slows down. By evening it is sandalwood, labdanum, vetiver and musk, and it is better for it.

Who made it

Marc-Antoine Corticchiato composed it in 2009, for Parfum d'Empire in France. An African-inspired incense built on myrrh, apple and fir resin, named for a Cameroonian musical instrument. Widely admired for its balance of resin and fruit.
