Bois d'Ascèse – Naomi Goodsir

What does it smell like?

A smoldering impression of incense, charred branches, and weathered woods. Cypress, artemisia, rosemary, and dry spices lend a cool, aromatic edge to the opening. Frankincense and balsamic labdanum deepen the heart, with broom adding a subtly bitter floral facet. Cade wood, birch tar, vetiver, cedarwood, and amber give the finish a dark, resinous warmth. It evokes a forgotten stone chapel in the wilderness, where incense and woodsmoke seem to linger in the walls: austere, contemplative, and profoundly atmospheric.

The Experience

The opening

Cool cypress, artemisia, rosemary, and dry spices create a pine-like, herbaceous first impression against a smoky backdrop.

The dry-down

Frankincense, labdanum, and broom deepen into cade wood, birch-tar smoke, earthy vetiver, cedarwood, and amber.

The overall feeling

Austere, mystical, and contemplative. Julien Rasquinet contrasts aromatic herbs with incense, charred woods, and balsamic warmth for a dry, architectural smoke impression.

Why sample it?

A fragrance deserves more than a first impression.

Try Bois d'Ascèse on skin to explore how cypress, artemisia, rosemary, and spices develop through frankincense, labdanum, and broom, then settle into cade wood, birch tar, vetiver, cedarwood, and amber. The balance of herbs, incense, and smoky warmth can feel different from a paper blotter; wear and longevity vary by person.

The 2ml Philosophy: Our 2ml discovery spray delivers 25 to 30 precision sprays, not a fixed number of wearings. Explore it across different cool days and evenings before considering a full bottle; the number of wears depends on how much you spray.
