Frankincense Essential Oil from Somalia, extracted from the resin of Boswellia carteri trees, delivers a captivating and complex aroma. Upon initial inhalation, its warm, resinous top notes evoke fresh pine needles and earthy undertones, promoting a sense of grounding and tranquility. As the scent unfolds, citrusy sweetness reminiscent of sun-kissed oranges or lemons emerges, balancing the resinous depth with delicate sweetness. A subtle spicy note lingers in the background, adding warmth and comfort to the fragrance.

The oil is produced through steam distillation, a time-honored method that ensures purity and quality. Boswellia carteri trees, primarily found in Somalia and the Arabian Peninsula, are sustainably harvested to protect both the environment and the local communities. This essential oil is ideal for use in aromatherapy, promoting inner reflection, spiritual awakening, and emotional balance. Its rich and multilayered scent makes it a treasured ingredient in perfumery and wellness practices.
