Guerlain Encens Mythique Eau de Parfum paints incense through a Parisian lens, opening with a luminous wash of aldehydes that lets saffron glow and a rich rose unfurl. The heart turns gently spiced with pink pepper over earthy patchouli and cool vetiver, while the dry down threads silky ambergris with olibanum and polished woods for a refined, meditative trail that feels both airy and profound.

Story & Positioning
Part of Les Absolus d’Orient, Encens Mythique frames frankincense in a modern French style, polishing it with rose, aldehydes, and a cashmere-like ambergris glow for evening elegance and cooler seasons. It revives the house’s fascination with noble resins while remaining versatile and urbane. Lovers of refined, rosy incense will find it a sophisticated choice among contemporary luxury compositions.
Bottle & Design
Encens Mythique appears in the Les Absolus d’Orient silhouette, a sleek cylindrical glass bottle tinted deep garnet with a round golden plaque at the front, a smooth domed cap, and a decorative cord at the neck that lends a couture accent. The look is weighty, minimal, and meant to display beautifully.
