Along with myrrh, frankincense was one of the first resins ever burned as incense. This pure essential oil is steam distilled from the resin of the Boswellia carterii tree, also known as olibanum. An essential oil is the concentrated scented oil taken from a plant, and this one is for anyone who keeps a ritual or meditation practice.
There is 50ml of oil, made from the resin by steam distillation. The Boswellia tree belongs to the Burseraceae family and is native to the Middle East. Avoid it during pregnancy, and do not eat, drink or put it on skin.
In ancient Egypt, frankincense was burned as holy incense, and its earliest record is a tomb inscription of Queen Hatshepsut from the 15th century BC. In tradition, frankincense is said to symbolise divinity, and it is still used during meditation. Choose it for a scent with thousands of years of ritual behind it.
A good gift for: meditation lovers, incense lovers, altar keepers, witchy friends.
