Premium Grade – Frankincense Resin – Biblical Frankincense
BOTANICAL NAME: Boswellia Papyrifera
Plant Family: Burseraceae
Frankincense and the oil produced from it has been known for its healing powers and its ability to improve communication with the creator in the Middle East for thousands of years before it was made a gift of to Christ by the Magi. There are over 52 references to it in the Bible. Egyptian records show a great many references to it including its use in cosmetics, perfumes and as an embalming agent. The Chinese used it as part of a treatment for leprosy. Grown predominantly on the Somali coast and parts of the Arabian Peninsula, the resin is obtained by making deep cuts in the trunk of the tree lengthwise. Below this incision a narrow strip of bark is peeled off allowing the sap to run out, and as it touches air it begins to harden. It takes approximately three months to harden into the yellow “tears” that we are used to seeing will be sold at market. The sap is gathered from May until the rain showers start in September.
CONSTITUENTS
The venerable herbalist Mrs. Grieve noted that the constituents of frankincense as follows: resins (65%), volatile oil (6%), water soluble gum (20%), bassorin (6-8%), and plant residue (2-4%). The resins contain boswellic acid and alibanoresin.
PARTS USED: Dried resin, collected from stems and trunk.
TYPICAL PREPARATIONS
Powdered resin added to water, tincture, and very rarely as a tea.
PRECAUTIONS
Specific: Not for use in pregnancy except under the supervision of a qualified healthcare practitioner.
General: We recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.

Top Notch For Perfumery
I received my frankincense today, and, OMG, it smells amazing. The actual resin does not have much of a smell, but I crushed 10 grams to make my tincture. When putting crushed frankincence into the jar, some of the released oils stuck to my hand. The aroma is a buttery cross between sandalwood and something cured, like maybe vanilla beans or tobacco. Wonderful!

I’ve been buying their Patchouli oil for years and when I did a search for Frankincense resin, I found this… just like the patchouli, it doesn’t disappoint!

Smell and clean burning.
Smells good and clean burning. Add a few drops of frankincense oil to enhance aroma.

I think one must be very specific I.e. the exact same incense used in Catholic Church ceremonies.
It wasn’t the frankincense that is used in religious ceremonies. I used to get frankincense from a priest friend and it was composed of tiny gravel-like material. The aroma was powerful. There was a tiny charcoal involved and the grains were sprinkled on this charcoal. I desperately needed this product to get rid of the smell of four months of flooding in my home. With the product I ordered there was no profound aroma and the charcoal I burned emitted a very black smoke. Took it all outside and I am done with it. Must say, this was the FIRST product to let me down.
