Shay & Blue London Frankincense Black Pepper is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2026, created by Julie Massé. Frankincense Black Pepper opens with Bergamot, Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Amyris, Mineral, Hazelnut, and Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, Vetiver, and Tonka Bean. Shay & Blue London's Frankincense Black Pepper carries a Statement verdict, an amber-led wear.

It’s a bold gamble to promise a frankincense and pepper scent that's also 'mineral', but this one might hit the jackpot for those craving something truly different and a tad mysterious. Let's see if the hype delivers.

About

Opening with a zesty, almost effervescent burst of bergamot and a sharp, invigorating crack of black pepper, this scent quickly reveals a rich, resinous heart. Frankincense and labdanum twine around warm amberwood and a surprising mineral note, conjuring images of ancient stones and cool, damp earth. A subtle sweetness from tonka and hazelnut rounds out the experience, settling into a musky, woody base with hints of dry vetiver and juniper.
