A dream from 1001 nights with the mysterious essence of Kyphi
On my first trip into antiquity, I searched all over Cairo for this legendary incense, whose mysterious recipe is immortalized on a wall in the sacred temple of Edfu - to no avail. I was met with perplexed looks and resigned shaking of heads as I wandered through the souks of the old town, and so I returned home without having achieved anything. From a small German ! I bought the most delicious kyphi that the ancient pharaohs could have dreamed of. And now it appears in this jewel: in the fascinating mélange of "Queen of the Night".
Kyphi plays a key role in this fragrant gem from The Merchant of Venice, adding a deep and mystical dimension to the fragrance. This ancient blend of resins, spices and aromatic plants has always captivated me. For anyone who smokes and is looking for the perfect fragrant incense: Kyphi.
Kyphi, with its roots in ancient Egypt, becomes a truly magical element in "Queen of the Night". The fragrance journey begins with the subtle fluidity of incense, reminiscent of the opulence of ancient pharaonic temples. The spicy notes of kyphi, consisting of myrrh and cinnamon, dance harmoniously together and unfold a warm, spicy aura. The myrrh brings an earthy depth, while the cinnamon lends the fragrance its sensual sweetness. These two elements combine to create a beguiling fragrance experience that appeals to the senses and builds a bridge between past and present.
This fragrance creates a connection to millennia-old rites and conveys the feeling of discovering a precious treasure from times gone by. Because Kyphi was as precious as gold. It was used for ceremonial incense at court and its recipe was kept like a treasure in the sacred temples.
An essential component of Kyphi is the raisins soaked in wine. Together with the sweet notes of honey and spices, they breathe life into "Queen of the Night". The honey imparts a cozy sweetness, while the wine adds a festive and lively nuance. Together, they create a cozy warmth that lifts the fragrance into a unique, historical dimension.
Kyphi is not just an ingredient in "Queen of the Night", but a treasure from bygone eras that has stood the test of time. When I wear this fragrance, I feel the connection to the ancient rituals and secrets that once surrounded Kyphi. It's as if the essence of the millennia is wafting through my senses and history is revived in a single breath. Sensual amber carries the ethereal gem to the furthest corners of the heart, bedded on warming tonka bean that creates a depth of unimagined dimension. Saffron carries the fragrance into the room on golden wings and makes it glow.
Deep, mystical, enchanting - a decidedly complex fragrance that sparkles in the room and envelops the body with an aura of charisma and sensuality.
