Frankincense

62 perfumes

Derived from the resin of the Boswellia tree, frankincense is harvested through precise incisions in the bark. Its olfactive profile is complex: balsamic, lemony, and deeply resinous with a cool, peppery edge. Primarily a base note, it provides a meditative, spiritual anchor to fragrances. In the Gulf, it is an essential cultural pillar, often layered with oud or rose to evoke the sacred atmosphere of traditional majlis, symbolizing hospitality, purity, and the timeless heritage of the Arabian Peninsula’s ancient trade routes.
