The frankincense scent is warm, resinous, and slightly woody, offering a deep, meditative aroma that has been cherished for centuries. Its mystical, grounding profile is ideal for creating spiritual and calming fragrances.
Derived from the resin of the Boswellia tree, frankincense contains terpenes like alpha-pinene and incensole acetate, which contribute to its complex, balsamic character. It’s often featured in base accords, adding a rich, smoky depth to woody, oriental, or spicy compositions.
Compared to similar resinous notes like myrrh or amber, frankincense is fresher and more aromatic, with a subtle citrus undertone. Perfect for candles, diffusers, and sacred spaces, the frankincense scent adds a timeless, spiritual warmth to your creations.
