Series 3 Incense was launched in 2002 and was devoted to the five main spiritual teachings of the humanity:
Avignon – Catholicism
Ouarzazate – Islam
Zagorsk – Orthodox Christianity
Jaisalmer – Hinduism
Kyoto – Buddhism and Shintoism

Each of the fragrances is named after the cities significant for those teachings.

Zagorsk presents Eastern Orthodoxy. It is named after the Russian city that was, until today, one of the influential Orthodox-Christian places of Russia.

Zagorsk is light, a bit melancholic fragrance, the smell of Russian monasteries placed in endless snowy Russian planes, the odor of light birch and dark pine tree woods, and northern red forest fruits. The main notes of this composition are white frankincense, pine tree, red hot chilly pepper, violet, cedar, iris, Hinoki cypress and birch.

This one went all the way where Prada Infusion d'Homme chickened out. It is based on the same bitter herbal note (which is parsley to me), but this note is here complemented by manly and sophisticated mixture of leather, tobacco and incense. The tobacco note here is definitely the one of smoked tobacco rather than dry leaf (read "cigarette butts" - but in the best possible sense).

I am underwhelmed by this...not because of the quality per se but probably because I put it on too high a pedestal in my expectations. Honestly, at first it reminds me of classic "Grandma" perfume - omnipresent cough-inducing sweetness. After a while I could almost sense the "snow/cold" note a lot of people mention - but it was so fleeting I didn't know if it was my imagination. Incense, yes...especially in the way it pervades everything around you like a veil of olfactory fog(you can almost see the smoke when smelling this). But the only "Russian" association I got from it was mens' aftershave from the soviet union. It's not unpleasant by any means...just for me feels absolutely nothing like the description.

Classic incense, right down to the resin and smoke. I'm told it smells like a Russian Orthodox church. It's lovely, but probably too close to real incense for most people. Still, I like it very much for it's evocative atmosphere.
