Frankincense is the gum resin secreted by a small shrub which grows in semi-arid regions of Arabia. An incision is made in the trunk to allow the strongly-scented and rubbery oleoresin to ooze out. We use the resin “tears” when they are harvested pure as they are exuded by the tree, or resin “chestnuts” when it falls to the ground. Pale yellow or reddish yellow in color, it gives of an aromatic scent with turpentine accords. Frankincense burns quickly, giving off a strong aroma which is spiritual by nature.
In traditional medicine, it is used in fumigation to treat respiratory infections due to its high essential oil content (3 to 9%).
Its essential oil is appreciated in cosmetics for its regenerating and anti-irritation properties.
Extracts
The argan tree, endemic to south Morocco, plays a key ecological role in protecting the area from desertification and soil erosion. It produces an edible oil when its fruit is roasted, or a cosmetic plant oil if it is extracted by first cold pressing. Argan oil benefits from a PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) guarantee label which confirms its origin. In order to preserve its main active ingredients and pleasant taste, it must not be exposed to heat.
The economic sector for this oil is set apart by the fact that it involves women, who are often in a precarious situation. They harvest the argan, then produce this oil for small communities.
It is appreciated in cosmetics for its unique components, in particular omega 6 and 9, vitamin E and squalene. Its polyunsaturated fatty acids give it anti-aging and antioxidant properties which Berber women had intuitively known for centuries. Argan oil rebuilds the cutaneous barrier, limits skin water loss and increases collagen synthesis.
We also appreciate the shell of the stone – a residue from the manufacture of the oil – which, when dried and reduced to a powder, becomes an effective natural exfoliator.
Oils
People have been using honey since the dawn of time, and it has always had a special character and status. Olympians drink ambrosia – a mixture of milk and honey. Since ancient times, Romans, Greeks and Egyptians have been eating honey and using it to treat wounds and burns and make the skin more beautiful. We have always been aware of its regenerating and antiseptic properties, but they are now also scientifically recognized.
It can be used pure or as an extract in cosmetics to make the most of its numerous detoxifying, softening and regenerating properties and the vitamins, minerals and amino acids it contains.
Others
This note is the fruit of a spicy composition, pushed to the extreme so you can really feel its strength… but subtle nonetheless. Benzoin, a real tree resin, preserves the soft, milky nuances. It settles on a calm, enveloping musk and warm, sensual and slightly powdery amber. The ensemble is structured by a sweet cinnamon base note and myrrh which might remind you of frankincense. This resin adopts an aromatic vibe, similar to moss. The creation becomes unforgettable, like our body care products which have adopted it.

Sens et Encens
This product rolls hundreds of tiny exfoliating beads onto the skin for a surprising, very pleasant and extremely soft sensation. The dead cells which cause your skin to look dull and dry are gently eliminated, immediately leaving your skin radiant and feeling softer.
Being bold enough to overdose on these scrubbing particles, choosing them for their finesse to ensure an experience which is both sensory and effective.
An extremely refined body exfoliator, which people with more delicate skin can apply to dry or damp skin to control its action, zone by zone. Note that this cream is very easy to rinse off.
An abundance of argan powder (its crushed shell) which breaks up dead cells on the skin’s surface to make way for new cells and radiance.
A hint of olive oil is reminiscent of savon noir, but most importantly provides its lipid-replenishing properties.
Frankincense extract for purity.
Opuntia extract adds a hint of freshness and poetry.
