Glossary of the Top, Middle and Base Notes for Frankincense/Oilbanum & Myrrh

Description:

Citrus, floral, spicy, dry, aldehydic, fruity

Olfactive Profile:

With its citrus, green, floral, and solar notes, Bergamot is reminiscent of the warm Mediterranean sun. Aromatic floral tones enrich the energizing citrus freshness of Bergamot and brings a sweet freshness to a fragrance.

Facts:

The fruit is a cross between the pear lemon and the Seville orange or grapefruit. While Bergamot is a key ingredient in modern perfumery, growers still respect ancestral methods, and harvesting is done by hand. The name is derived from the city of Bergamot in Lombardy, Italy, where the oil was first sold.

Description:

warm, sensual, exotic, musky, soft, slightly sweet, slightly spicy, amber

Olfactive Profile:

Amber is associated with sweet, spicy, and aromatic notes that are evocative of exotic places, opulent jewelry, and warm memories. It’s warmth and subtle sweetness evoke a sense of comfort and indulgence to perfectly match the mood of fall and winter.

Facts:

Amber is made from fossilized tree resin. Remember the mosquito in Jurassic Park? Used throughout human history for jewelry, medicine, and more, the actual scent we now refer to as “amber” is more of an emulation of the rich, golden appearance of amber as the resin itself has little or no aroma.

Description:

earthy, woody, piney, balsamic, soft, sweet, citrus

Olfactive Profile:

With a sweet, woody and balsamic undertone, Olibanum offers a green, terpenic, citrusy, peppery and resinous profile. Sensual and rich, the note is typically amber

Facts:

The genus Boswellia is used to describe any of the varieties of trees that produce frankincense resin, and is native to the Arabian Peninsula and northeastern Africa. It has been used for a variety of medicinal, ceremonial, and religious purpose for over 5000 years.

Description:

sweet, ambery, balsamic, smoky

Olfactive Profile:

Myrrh is sweet with warm, spicy tones and hints of licorice. Smoky undertones and a distinctly sharp balsamic quality add to its unique aroma.

Facts:

Myrrh is a natural resin or gum obtained from the bark of trees in the Commiphora genus, native to the Arabian Peninsula, East Africa, and parts of Asia. When their bark is cut or injured, these trees produce a resin or gum, which hardens into a fragrant, reddish-brown substance. Myrrh was traded along the ancient spice routes to Egypt, Greece, and Rome.

Description:

woody, ambery, leathery, animalic, smoky, earthy, musky

Olfactive Profile:

Oud is rich, complex, and extremely long-lasting. Warm amber tones combine with spicy, animalic, and leather qualities, resulting in a sensual, woody, and slightly musky scent.

Facts:

Oud, also known as agarwood or aloeswood, is obtained from the Aquilaria tree, native to Southeast Asia, India, and Bangladesh. When the Aquilaria tree becomes infected with a certain type of mold, it produces a resinous substance that changes the composition of the wood and gives it a distinctive aroma.

Description:

soft, gentle, subtle, fresh, dry, clean

Olfactive Profile:

Powdery scents are soft, clean, and enveloping.

Facts:

Dusting powders were used to absorb sweat and odor in the early twentieth century. As a result, the scent of powder became associated with freshness, luxury, and sophistication.
