Composition
Encke Selfridges Exclusive is a unisex extrait de parfum from Tiziana Terenzi, launched in 2019 exclusively at Selfridges and created by Paolo Terenzi. It opens with Cloves, Cardamom and Saffron, reveals a heart of Cedar, Patchouli and Leather, and settles into Sandalwood, Animal Notes, Musk, Amber and Labdanum. Its character is defined by warm spicy, woody and leather accords.
To me this smells like a spice merchant's tent in a city that no longer exists — cloves and cardamom dark and oily in the first breath, saffron glowing like embers. Leather rises underneath, worn and animal, cedar and patchouli darkening it like the tent poles at night. Animal notes and labdanum grind at the base — sweat, hide, resin, the real stuff. This is not a perfume, it is a time machine to somewhere wilder. Amber and musk glow through the animalics like firelight in a dark tent. Not for beginners — beginners stay away.
