Olibanum & olibanum

We have chosen to express our creativity and our uniqueness through frankincense, a rare resin more precious than gold, at the very origin of the perfume. Coveted by the pharaohs and princes of Antiquity, an incomparable burnt offering on the altars dedicated to the deities of India, Africa, Europe and Mesopotamia, transported, it was believed, the prayers of sacred or profane rites.
