"Inspired by the mystery and beauty of Ancient Egypt where perfume originates, in the land of Pharaoh and Gods. Egypt has such wonder and history that it is hard not to be in awe when you stand at the foot of the great pyramids, or look into the gold face mask of Tutankhamen. The mysteries left behind, and the richness of culture is the inspiration of this scent. Dendera is an ancient temple, built upon and even older temple only recently discovered beneath its floors. Famous for its "Dendera Lightbulbs" embossed on the walls inside the temple. The scent opens with a rich blend of cinnamon and nutmeg paired with a dusty orris butter and Vietnamese oud combination. The oud has a natural dry earthy profile, and pairs beautifully with the orris butter. The resins are at the strongest through the mid, and provide a natural incense accord which lingers to the end of the drydown. As it progresses through the drydown, the creamy tonality of sandalwood comes to play, coated with the sparkling musky ambergris, sweetened ever so slightly by the Madagascan vanilla." - a note from the brand.
