Boswellia resin is collected by incising the bark of trees growing in the dry, rocky regions of Oman, Somalia, and Ethiopia. The flowing sap solidifies in the air for several weeks before being distilled.

Frankincense has accompanied spiritual rituals for over five thousand years. Present in Egyptian temples, Buddhist monasteries, churches, and mosques, it is one of the few raw materials that has transcended the boundaries of all great religious traditions worldwide.

In aromatherapy, it is valued for its influence on the rhythm and depth of breath. It supports concentration, reduces emotional tension, and builds a sense of stability during moments of overwhelm. This is the oil to reach for when inner quiet is needed.

Scent profile: resinous, balsamic, slightly citrusy with a dry woody note
