Frankincense (Boswellia carterii) Essential Oil

Frankincense Essential Oil (Boswellia carterii)

A certified organic essential oil, the scent of frankincense —fresh, balsamic, warm, and woody—has for centuries helped create spaces of peace and inner connection.
Frankincense oil supports deep, clear breathing, especially during meditation, during cold season, or for daily respiratory health support.

Frankincense is on our list of raw materials requiring special attention for sustainable harvesting. Our certified organic frankincense oil is produced from the resin of wild Boswellia carterii trees, native to Somaliland.
