≈ $100 · 50ml · approx. retail
Named after the Russian monastery town, Zagorsk represents Orthodox Christianity in the Series 3 Incense collection, built around a cold, forested pine-and-birch accord layered with church incense. Evelyne Boulanger balances the resinous top with a soft iris-and-violet heart before settling into warm hinoki wood.
