Perfumer: Julien Rasquinet
Capturing the essence of desert myrrh warmed by the beach. With spicy cinnamon, rich cedar and sweet tangy ambroxan all clarifying and defining the sensational incense. It is a scent of contradiction with amber tones and mineral references that serve a blend that can be peaceful or invigorating. You choose.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a fragrance for close conversation in a quiet room where the air still carries warmth from outside. It feels composed and contemplative, but with a dry spark that keeps it from sinking into softness, giving the wearer a calm, slightly magnetic presence.
How to wear
Best in cool to mild weather, where its resinous warmth and mineral edges can unfold without becoming heavy. One to three sprays are enough: the cinnamon opens with a dry shimmer, then the incense and myrrh settle close to the skin with steady, elegant diffusion.
Who it’s for
For those who like spicy-resinous perfumes with a modern, mineral twist rather than dense sweetness. It will appeal to wearers drawn to incense, myrrh, cedar and ambered woods, especially if they prefer compositions that feel contemplative, textured and quietly distinctive.

The nose
Julien Rasquinet is a French perfumer known for precise, textural compositions that often explore resin, smoke, woods and the sensual side of oriental perfumery. Mentored by Pierre Bourdon and working at IFF, he tends to build fragrances with a strong sense of place and material contrast, making Myrrhe feel especially aligned with his style. In Myrrhe, Rasquinet turns incense and myrrh into something tactile rather than solemn: cinnamon adds heat, cedar gives structure, and ambroxan lifts the composition into a mineral, modern register. The result reflects his gift for balancing depth with clarity.
Collaborators
Nicolas Chabot, Headspace’s founder and creative director, shaped the concept and invited Julien Rasquinet to develop the fragrance within the brand’s headspace-driven vision of capturing the atmosphere of a material or place. Jules Dinand created the bottle design, extending the fragrance’s minimalist, conceptual identity into the visual presentation.
Headspace’s story
Headspace Parfums builds fragrances around the idea of capturing the volatile aura of a material or moment, translating sensory impressions into streamlined compositions. The house combines scientific technique with poetic imagery, favoring minimalist names, modern structure and a focus on raw materials, contrast and atmosphere.
MYRRHE’s concept
Myrrhe was created as part of Headspace’s 2022 launch, with the brief centered on a sun-warmed desert rock: dry, mineral and still holding heat after contact with water and air. The fragrance plays on that contrast, turning myrrh and incense into something both meditative and alive, with cinnamon and ambroxan clarifying the image of warmth against stone.
Extra info
Myrrhe is part of Headspace’s inaugural 2022 collection. The bottle was designed by Jules Dinand, grandson of Pierre Dinand. The fragrance is built around the idea of a sun-heated rock by the sea or in the desert, a contrast of warmth, stone and air that defines the whole composition.
