Frankincense
An incense of biblical renown, traditionally made from a resin called 'olibanum'. For our frankincense, a little rose has been added to this resin, to create a sweet, woody fragrance that is perfectly suited to everyday use. It is grouding, calming and earthy.
Frankincense can help with depression and anxiety and is a known anti-inflammatory.
The olibanum is a resin harvested from the Boswelia tree. Overharvesting and climate change have put this tree at risk in the Horn of Africa and the Arabian peninsula, but please rest assured that we only use Indian frankincense.
If you like the resinous properties of frankincense, you might like to try 'Chandra', a distinctive and outstanding fragrance in our 'online only' range. 'Dhyana' in the same range carries a lot of frankincense too.
