Derived from tree sap, frankincense and myrrh are fragrant resins highly valued for incense and perfumes. Our Frankincense and Myrrh fragrance oil captures the essence of these enduring scents used for millennia. Hints of citrusy bergamot and amber open up to a heart of resinous myrrh and frankincense. The wood and incense notes are softened by powder and oud in the base. Olibanum, patchouli, and coriander seed essential oils reinforce the earthiness of Frankincense and Myrrh in candles and melts. Body scrubs, lotions, and soap made with this scent give an elegant and unique twist to your handmade creations.

This fragrance is infused with natural essential oils, including coriander seed, cumin, lemon, orange, patchouli, and olibanum.

Blends well with: Fraser Fir, Egyptian Amber, Spiced Honey and Tonka, Matcha and Bergamot

We did experience slight acceleration but no separation. The batter came to a light trace quickly and started to thicken with some hand stirring. Overall the batter remained workable and poured smoothly into the mold. After 24 hours, the soap had discolored to a dark yellowish-brown color. The scent was light but still true to the out of bottle character. We did observe that the soap reached a partial gel. After 30 days, the soap has discolored to a brown shade and the scent was slightly stronger than after the initial cut. This fragrance would be ideal for a design technique that requires a thick trace.

One of the strongest scents
B&B Candles and Soaps 2024-10-15

This is one of the strongest scents I’ve purchased from Candle Science. I was shockingly surprised. It’s very clean floral scent but strong. I feel maybe a little less than recommended would be a better usage rate. Will most def order again. Thanks candle science!

Loooooove it
Gino Bracco 2024-04-15

Whether it smells like the actual resins I can't say, all I know is that its such a soft and calming scent. Its perfect for a candle advertised for meditation or something to light while reading

My favorite holiday scent this year!
Amber M. 2024-01-23

I made multiple holiday candles this year to gift to my family, and this was the most popular. Even my husband, who doesn’t really DO scented candles liked this one. A lovely, comforting, well-balanced blend.
