The Frankincense Candle: A Rich, Woody & Fresh Seasonal Fragrance
Some fragrances are instantly inviting. They bring warmth to a room, create an atmosphere and make home feel that little bit more special. Our seasonal Frankincense fragrance is one of those scents.
Rich, luxurious and beautifully balanced, Frankincense combines fresh citrus and aromatic botanicals with warming spices and a deep, woody base. It's a fragrance that feels particularly at home during the colder months, but is equally lovely to enjoy throughout the year.
Whether you're looking for a new scented candle for your living room, a thoughtful Christmas gift or a fragrance to enjoy when friends and family come round, Frankincense is a lovely choice.
What does Frankincense smell like?
Our Frankincense fragrance is woody and fresh, with a rich oriental character.
It opens with bright citrus peel, eucalyptus and juniper, creating a fresh and aromatic introduction. Lavender adds a softer floral note before the fragrance develops into a gently spiced heart of cinnamon, clove and orris.
As it settles, warm amber, sandalwood, cedarwood, patchouli, musk and vanilla bring depth and richness to the fragrance.
The combination makes Frankincense wonderfully layered: fresh at first, gently spicy in the middle and warm, woody and luxurious underneath.
The fragrance notes
Our Frankincense blend brings together a carefully balanced combination of fresh, aromatic, spicy and woody notes.
Top notes – Citrus Peel, Eucalyptus & Juniper
Fresh citrus peel and aromatic eucalyptus meet the crisp, slightly pine-like character of juniper, giving the fragrance its fresh opening.
Heart notes – Lavender, Spices & Orris
Lavender brings softness, while cinnamon and clove add a gentle warmth. Orris helps round out the fragrance with a smooth, elegant character.
Base notes – Sandalwood, Patchouli, Musk & Vanilla
The fragrance settles into a rich and comforting base, with creamy sandalwood, earthy patchouli, soft musk and vanilla.
Together, these notes create a distinctive fragrance that feels both fresh and warming.
Why we love our Frankincense fragrance
What we particularly love about Frankincense is how luxurious it feels without being overpowering or unwelcoming.
It's a fragrance that works beautifully throughout the home, especially in living spaces where you want to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Light it when you're settling in for the evening, enjoying a quiet moment at home or getting ready to welcome guests. Its combination of fresh and woody notes makes it a lovely choice for the festive season and beyond.
