Frankincense Perfumes & Colognes: 2,144 Fragrances With Frankincense

Frankincense perfumes make up 2,144 fragrances in our catalog, with frankincense used as a base note 53% of the time. Frankincense is a resin with a dry, peppery, lemony smell and the smoky feel of church incense. It adds a calm, airy depth and usually sits in the heart or base, where it lasts well. It is most often paired with myrrh, labdanum and cistus, and these perfumes tend to be spicy and woody. Well-known examples include L'Homme Idéal by Guerlain, Y by Yves Saint Laurent and Acqua di Giò Profumo by Giorgio Armani.
