Frankincense essential oil is one of the most revered oils in history, known for its profound spiritual, emotional, and therapeutic effects. Steam distilled from the resin of Boswellia trees—commonly Boswellia carterii, Boswellia sacra, or Boswellia serrata—this sacred oil has been used for centuries in meditation, skincare, and natural healing. With its rich, balsamic, and slightly citrusy aroma, Frankincense is both deeply grounding and elevating.
