IGR J17252-3616, a highly absorbed High Mass X-ray Binary (HMXB) with Hydrogen column density NH~(2-4)×1023 cm-2, has been observed with XMM-Newton for about one month. Observations were scheduled in order to cover the orbital-phase space as much as possible. IGR J17252-3616 shows a varying column density NH and Fe Kα line when fit with simple phenomenological models. A refined orbital solution can be derived. Spectral timing analysis allows derivation of the wind properties of the massive star.
