Dendera is inspired by the mystery and beauty of Ancient Egypt, from where perfume originates. It's difficult not to be in awe when one stands at the foot of the great pyramids, or looks into the gold face mask of Tutankhamen. The mysteries left behind by the ancients, and the richness of Egyptian culture, is the inspiration behind this scent. Dendera is an ancient temple, built upon an even older temple that was only recently discovered beneath its floors. Dendera is famous for its "Dendera Lightbulbs" embossed upon the walls inside the temple. 

The scent opens with a rich blend of cinnamon and nutmeg, paired with a dusty orris butter and Vietnamese oud combination. The resins are at their strongest through the midpoint of the fragrance, and they provide a natural incense accord that lingers to the end of the dry-down. As it progresses through the dry-down, the creamy tonality of sandalwood comes to play, coated with the sparkling musky ambergris, sweetened ever so slightly by the Madagascan vanilla.
