Are fragrances that include alcohol, like those derived from whisky or cognac, allowed to be used? I know wine and beer are Najis, but I believe spirits are deemed Tahir. If this is so, can one wear fragrances containing such alcohol?

Any material taken from Najis item is Najis as well. Fragrances derived from intoxicant alcohol is Najis. Applying such fragrances is permissible by itself, despite that fact that it is Najis, but you need to wash it before performing your Wudhu and/ or Prayers (Salah).
