Incensi - Lorenzo Villoresi - Bloom Perfumery

An ancient ritual. The wonder of green, perfumed resin flowing from the tree. It is reminiscent of journeys along the perfume routes, of the magic of nocturnal ceremonies. Fresh, intense notes of Incense, Opoponax, Storax and Tolu.

All about this fragrance

Vibe check

Incensi suits an evening spent in unhurried conversation, its green edge cutting through the warmth of powdery balsams and spice. The register is composed rather than festive: an old-world resin scent that lends gravity without relying on sweetness alone.

How to wear

Cool or mild weather is a natural setting for its spicy, balsamic character. Start with one or two sprays on skin, allowing the green opening to settle before adding more. A restrained application keeps the resinous warmth measured in close quarters; use a lighter hand in heat.

Who it’s for

For those drawn to incense beyond a purely smoky accord: green resins, peppery spice, powder and balsamic woods. Its old-school, subtly animalic character will appeal to wearers who prefer layered aromatic textures over sheer freshness or overtly sugary warmth.

Release year

1997, reissued 2013–2014

The nose

Lorenzo Villoresi is a Florentine perfumer whose work draws on aromatic materials, cultural curiosity and travels in the Middle East. His compositions often have richly layered textures, from the enveloping powder of Teint de Neige to intricate treatments of woods, spices and resins. In Incensi, he places an incense-and-balsam foundation beneath a contrasting green, citrus and spicy opening.

Lorenzo Villoresi’s story

Lorenzo Villoresi approaches perfume as an independent artistic craft, rooted in Florence but informed by encounters with other cultures. In-house production, carefully selected ingredients and attention to detail support a vision of understated, enduring luxury rather than seasonal fashion.

Incensi’s concept

Incensi takes its inspiration from ancient ritual, aromatic resin flowing from trees and journeys along the perfume routes. Its imagery evokes nocturnal ceremonies without tying the composition to a particular religious tradition. Originally released in 1997, it later returned as part of the house’s Vintage Collection.

Extra info

Despite its incense theme, the official composition includes apple and citrus in the opening and mimosa in the heart. These unexpected accents give the resins a greener, more varied framework than the name alone might suggest.
