Do not apply directly to the skin. All our fragrance oils are measured in grams, not milliliters. Bottle fill levels may vary due to differences in oil density, which affects volume.
This material is supplied as a raw ingredient. Full compositional and allergen information is provided in the SDS and Allergen Declaration documents found in the “Related Documents” tab. Compliance of the final product remains the responsibility of the manufacturer.

Discoloration potential: Heavy
Frankincense and Myrrh Fragrance Oil’s formula contains high concentrations of aromatic aldehydes, coumarin, balsams, and vanillin-family molecules. The blend is inherently rich and prone to progressive darkening.
- Expect steady ambering or brownish deepening, especially in soap, uncolored wax, or white cosmetic bases.
- Perfect for earthy, spiritual, or warm-toned products where discoloration complements the scent story.
- Not recommended in white or pastel designs unless discoloration is acceptable or masked.
Application Compatibility
This fragrance is oil-soluble and designed for use in oil-based and alcohol-based formulations. It does not mix directly with water-based systems without the use of an appropriate solubilizer.
Storage
Store cool and sealed, away from light and air — but visual deepening is expected regardless.
Usage & Performance
Fragrance performance varies depending on the base, formulation, and production conditions. Cold throw, hot throw, diffusion strength, and longevity are influenced by the materials used and the manufacturing process.
A typical development process involves:
- Initial scent evaluation (10g sample)
- Small batch testing (e.g. 50g scale)
- Full-scale production once performance is validated
Testing under your specific conditions is standard practice in product development. Evaluation at each stage is required prior to scaling.
Recommended usage guidelines
- Candles: 7%-12%
- Reed diffusers: 15%-25%
- Personal perfumes: 10%-15%
- Soaps: 1%-3%

J’ai testé la fragrance d’avant fin octobre, elle est magnifique. Juste un regret de devoir doser un peu élevé par rapport à d’autres. J’aurai aimé la même plus concentrée, même si le prix est plus élevé 😀

I loved it. Tried it with the tobacco leaves fragrance oil and it smells amazing!

I ordered this scent because people wanted candles that smells like inside a church. And trust me. It really does. The Myrrh is really prominent in this scent, so don’t expect a soft scent. The frankincense gives a nice citrus touch to it

This fragrance oil is warm, ambery, and exquisite. The throw is strong without being overpowering. My favourite from my order, I’ll be purchasing it again.
