AEDES DE VENUSTAS

$107

The Mayan incense copal is the muse of COPAL AZUR, brought to life by perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour in 2014, who also authored AEDES DE VENUSTAS first scent, SIGNATURE. Incense is an olfactory thread that runs through much of the AEDES DE VENUSTAS collection. This millennia-old burnt offering to the gods is at the very origin of perfumery, since the word “perfume” itself springs from the Latin per fumare, which translates to “through smoke.” Who better than Duchaufour to whisk incense from the church into the seaside jungle?
