BELEVING: De hars in deze geur was vroeger duurder dan goud. Geen andere geur brengt je verder terug in de tijd. Door de toevoeging van roos waan je je in de oudste paleizen van weleer. Olibanum hars was een sleutelingrediënt bij het mummificeren van de Farao’s van Egypte 3 tot 5 duizend jaar geleden.
GEUR: Wierook uit de Oudheid is de oorspronkelijke wierook met interessante accenten. De basis van deze geur is olibanum hars (= het bestanddeel van kerkwierook) waaraan extra zoete en rozige noten zijn toegevoegd.
