Frankincense Oil - 100% Steam Distilled Pure Essential Oil

(Boswellia Sacra Tree)

Frankincense Oil also known as Olibanum & Lubaan is a high quality essential oil grade distillation of fine Boswellia Sacra resin. This light gold coloured, very thin oil has a sweet, woody scent with warm balsamic aroma and top notes of lemon despite being considered a base note. Historically used for incense, skin care, stomach ailments and cosmetics.

Common super cheap oils and resin that are sold as frankincense are actually derived from benzoin resin which is a totally different plant (Genus Styrax). This is not true Frankincense and is usually with 1/10th the price of good Frankincense resin. Knowing the price of the cheapest resin in the market we find it hard to see how frankincense can be sold by some sellers for less that $10 per 3ml.

Frankincense is tapped from the scraggly but hardy trees by striping (slashing the bark) and letting the exuded resin bleed out and harden. The hardened streaks of resin are called tears. Several species and varieties of frankincense trees each produce a slightly different type of resin. Differences in soil and climate create even more diversity of the resin, even within the same species.
