Paul Henrion, (23 June 1817 – 24 October 1901 ) was a 19th-century French composer.

President of the Société des auteurs, compositeurs et éditeurs de musique of which he was a co-founder with Victor Parizot and Ernest Bourget, he was also a goguettier, member of the goguette du Poulet sauté [fr]. In a panorama of the world of songs published in 1882 in Le Figaro, the journalist considered him "a first-rate artist whose romances for salons were famous". Henrion sometimes signed his compositions under the pseudonym Henri Charlemagne.
