Frankincense Oil
Back to Oils & Gel Page
Recent studies indicate that frankincense tree populations are declining, partly due to over-exploitation. Frankincense comes in many types, and its quality is based on color, purity, aroma, age, and shape. Silver and Hojari are generally considered the highest grades of frankincense. Frankincense essential oil has been used since ancient times for sacred and medicinal purposes. Frankincense oil has a woody, earthy, spicy, and slightly fruity aroma, which is calming and relaxing. It's said to be sweeter, fresher, and cleaner than frankincense resin.
