ABOUT

Nag Champa is an incense-style note inspired by traditional Indian blends, marrying creamy sandalwood with buttery champaca/frangipani florals and resinous sweetness for a soft, smoky, powdery aura touched by honeyed, slightly banana-like nuances. It evokes temple smoke, flower garlands, and meditative calm, and is used in perfumery as a heart-to-base accord to impart enveloping warmth and spirituality to woody, amber, and floral compositions, often paired with benzoin, vanilla, patchouli, and musk.

CATEGORY · RESINOUS

Resinous notes are characterized by their rich, warm, and often sweet aromas, derived from the natural resins of trees and plants. These scents typically evoke a sense of earthiness and depth, featuring elements like frankincense, myrrh, and benzoin, which contribute to a soothing and meditative quality in fragrances. Commonly found in oriental and woody compositions, resinous notes add complexity and longevity, enhancing the overall warmth and richness of the scent while often providing a grounding effect.
