Ikiryo Incubus FAQs

What is the scent profile of Incubus by Ikiryo?

Incubus is characterized by a unique blend that embodies both sensuality and depth. The top notes of benzoin and Iso-E-Super lend a warm and slightly sweet opening, while the heart features musk and maple, adding an intriguing softness and depth. The base notes of caramel, cashmeran, clove, and vanilla create a rich, gourmand finish that is enticingly seductive and comforting, making it a standout fragrance in the olfactive woody family. 🌟

How long does Incubus last, and what is its sillage?

Incubus is an Eau de Parfum, which typically offers a stronger concentration of fragrance oils. This means you can expect good longevity, usually lasting around 6 to 8 hours on the skin, depending on individual skin types. The sillage is moderate to strong, leaving a noticeable but not overwhelming scent trail, making it perfect for making an impression without being too overpowering. ✨

When is the best occasion to wear Incubus by Ikiryo?

Incubus is ideal for romantic occasions due to its alluring and sensual profile. It's perfect for date nights, intimate gatherings, or evening events where you want to leave a lasting impression. Additionally, its unique blend of notes makes it suitable for cooler weather, such as fall or winter, but can also be enjoyed during evenings in warmer seasons. 🌙❤️

How does Incubus compare to other fragrances in the Cœurs Sombres trilogy?

While each fragrance in the Cœurs Sombres trilogy presents its unique character, Incubus stands out with its darker, more masculine interpretation of sensuality. Compared to its feminine counterpart, Succubus, which features floral and fruity notes, Incubus leans into enriched, warm notes like caramel and vanilla, making it richer and more robust. Magie Sexualle, the unisex option, incorporates spikenard, giving it a mystical quality, while Incubus focuses on a more straightforward appeal of warmth and seduction. 🔥

Are there any tips for applying Incubus for optimal results?

For optimal results, apply Incubus to pulse points such as your wrists, neck, and behind your ears, as these areas naturally emit heat, helping to project the fragrance throughout the day. Additionally, consider layering it with an unscented moisturizer to enhance longevity. Avoid rubbing your wrists together after application, as this can alter the scent. For a more subtle effect, spritz it into the air and walk through the mist. 🚶‍♂️💨
