Find incense rather than assume it
An oriental name or a dark bottle does not establish an incense note. Look for incense in the pyramid, then identify its stage. Coeur de Sable and Terre Noble list it in the opening; VIP Elixir lists it in the base.

Compare the accompanying woods
Record sandalwood, cedar, papyrus or vetiver in the examples that interest you. Two incense perfumes can differ through these woods as well as through flowers and fruit. If you need a specific ingredient or origin, a note list is not sufficient evidence.
