The John Cage bit might have been me. But obviously you are quoting out of context.

Also, Basenotes, and the usual discounters like Fragrancenet, Fragrancex, Beautyencounter, etc. You never know when things will pop up...TJMaxx actually had a huge shipment a few years back.i traded my LUC jeans + Julius belt + Neil Barrett jeans for a blamain biker jeans

Merci d'avance.
Fragrances in that direction are many since the incense accord has been, heh, on fire recently. Obviously, there's the CDG incense series: Zagorsk and Avignon are the closest to Spiritus Sancti, in my opinion. Heeley's Cardinal is very, very similar to Avignon, though with an astronomical price tag. Olivier Durbano's White Crystal, L'Artisan's Passage d'Enfer and my favorite in the incense genre, L'Artisan's Timbuktu (incense that manages to distinguish itself in a saturated field through the use of an unusually cool, white smoke note.) All are worth trying.

So after all the suggestions I went with the Heely Cardinal, While similar to avignon, on my skin it smells exactly like Cire Trudons spiritus sancti. Plus I had a gift certificate which greatly reduced its otherwise inflated price.
Thanks again for the advice.⚡
