Organic Frankincense Serrata Essential Oil 10ml
Frankincense (Boswellia serrata) essential oil was used by many ancient civilizations as an anointing oil, revered for its allegedly powerful repairing virtues on wounds, wrinkles, hair / scalp loss… and to strengthen the gums. Its warm, calming, and deeply absorbent scent promotes an atmosphere of worldly detachment and spiritual contemplation. The scent has been famous for its sacred uses since the time of the ancient Egyptians.
The incense oil, which is also known as olibanum comes from the Boswellia Tree. The milky white sap is extracted from the bark of the tree, allowed to harden in a gum resin for several days, and then scraped off into tear-shaped droplets,
Boswellia trees grow in African and Arab regions, such as Yemen, Oman, and Somalia. Oman is the best known and oldest source of incense, from there it has been commercialized and shipped to other places such as the Mediterranean, India and China.
