About this product
The scent of frankincense in the room
- The first impression is dry and resinous, with a clear, incense-like warmth.
- Its woody depth lingers gently, making it suited to unhurried evening routines.
- The diluted format gives a softer aromatic presence than neat essential oil.
- Use it when you want a familiar ritual scent without anything sweet or floral.
- It sits well beside simple textures: linen, warm water, quiet light, bare wood.
Resin from Boswellia carterii
This oil comes from the resin of the Boswellia carterii tree, a member of the Burseraceae family. The resin is steam distilled, a method that uses vapour to draw out the aromatic compounds without the direct heat of burning incense.
The result is frankincense in liquid form: less smoky than resin on charcoal, but still recognisably balsamic, woody and contemplative.
How to use it with care
Use a small amount at a time. Although this is already diluted to 5% in grapeseed oil, patch test before use and avoid the eye area, broken skin and sensitive areas.
Avoid during pregnancy unless guided by a qualified professional. Keep essential oils away from children and pets, and store the bottle closed, cool and out of direct light.
Frankincense through history
Frankincense, also known as olibanum, has been traded and burned as incense for thousands of years across the Middle East, North Africa and the Mediterranean world. In Ancient Egypt, frankincense resin was used in temple ritual and in cosmetic preparations, including the dark eye powder seen in Egyptian art. In many traditions it became associated with sacred space, offering and contemplation, which is why its scent still feels so closely tied to meditation, quiet rooms and ritual pause.
