frankincense tree

Frankincense oil (Boswellia Sacra) - controlled organic cultivation

The frankincense tree is native to Ethiopia, Somalia, Yemen and Oman. It grows on sandy, dry soils and prefers desert-like climates. Even in ancient times, frankincense was a sought-after raw material for religious and cultic purposes.

The essential oil is extracted from the resin of the tree by steam distillation. Frankincense oil has a clear, fresh scent: initially somewhat camphor-like, later woody-balsamic, becoming increasingly softer. To extract one liter of essential frankincense oil, you need about 80 kg of resin from the tree.

Physical effects: anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, promotes blood circulation

Mental and emotional effects: promotes concentration, strengthens memory, has an antidepressant effect, has a strong calming effect
