Palais de Tokyo - Incense

Overlooking the Seine like a futuristic vessel, the Palais de Tokyo stands as a monument to contemporary creativity. Palais de Tokyo Incense captures the raw, electric energy of this iconic space, where concrete corridors and shifting light create an atmosphere both industrial and deeply artistic.

Smoky cedar and gaiac wood form the backbone of the composition, enriched by the crisp, aromatic edge of juniper. Oak moss adds an earthy, mineral depth, while cashmeran introduces a warm, skin-like softness that lingers in the air. Created with perfumer Christophe Raynaud in collaboration with the Palais de Tokyo, the fragrance feels modern, architectural and quietly provocative.

Crafted on the island of Awaji using traditional techniques passed down through generations, each stick is made from natural woods, resins and botanicals to ensure a smooth burn and a refined, lingering fragrance.

ABOUT THE BRAND

Designers of furniture and white ceramics Ivan Pericoli and Benoît founded their company, Astier de Villatte, in 1996 in association with friends and family. Successor to the Parisian manufactures of the 18th century, satire de village is now the only major studio to keep the tradition of artisanal ceramic production in Paris alive. In 2000, they opened the boutique at 173 rue Saint Honoré, which also presented their other creations for the home: titanium cutlery, borosilicate glassware and above all the wonderful collection of traditionally printed notebooks.

In 2008 they decided to join forces with a big name from the perfume world and together begin creating luxury scented goods. Working with their associates Emilie Massed and Françoise Caron, the star pefumer at Takasago (a Japanese fragrance company) Astier de Villatte's range of scented products was born.
