Frankincense Frereana Essential Oil (Boswellia frereana)
Certified Frankincense Oil Frereana – Maydi, the king of all incenses
Certified Frankincense Frereana essential oil, also known as "Maydi," meaning "king of all frankincense," comes from the Daallo Mountains in Somaliland. It is rarely produced, and the raw resin is highly prized in the Middle East. The resin from trees growing in the Daallo Mountain region (Sanaag, Somaliland) is carefully extracted and hydrodistilled to create an oil with an exceptionally pure profile: earthy and balsamic, with a sparkling citrus freshness.
Like other Frankincense varieties, this oil makes a cleansing and clarifying addition to your daily skincare routine, and also contributes soothing properties to specialized blends for irritated and scarred skin.
A rare aromatherapy delicacy – the elegant face of Boswellia
It has a distinctive, deep aroma with earthy, resinous, and slightly musky notes. This resin is highly prized and rarely distilled into essential oil, making it a true rarity in the world of aromatherapy. It is with great gratitude that we can offer this exceptional Frankincense Frereana oil—rare, authentic, and full of natural depth.
This is the choice of incense connoisseurs – subtle, clear, and full of light. Frankincense Frereana, with its exceptional clarity, is appreciated by connoisseurs for its freshness and lightness, unmistakable by any other Boswellia, and is considered by many to be the most elegant form of Boswellia.
"It's one of those oils you just smell. Your skin reacts first. Then your breath deepens. And suddenly you know why so many people call it their favorite frankincense."
