While frankincense has always been part of the changing face of fragrances, it has taken on a new role in the modern perfumery landscape. Its journey reflects both a shift in aesthetics and a change in perspective. An age-old material that has become one of the most relevant voices in contemporary niche perfumery. 

In this episode, Dominique Roques  — a sourcer of natural ingredients for the perfume industry for over 30 years and tasked with establishing the revival project of this precious tree in Wadi Dawkah — discusses with Yohan Cervi, critic and lecturer on the history of modern perfumery to trace the journey of this iconic ingredient through the world of fragrance creation.
