Frankincense Sacra Essential Oil

Our organically crafted Frankincense Sacra Essential Oil is steam distilled from the resinous dried sap of Boswellia sacra trees native to Oman, an historic region known for producing premium quality Frankincense Oil. The essential oil of Boswellia sacra has a warm, radiant, resinous, earthy, slightly balsamic aroma with peppery undertones and a top note of lemon-orange citrus; and is endowed with a rainbow of aromatherapeutic applications.

The lightly colored, greenish-hued Boswellia sacra resin is carefully harvested from trees in Oman, where only a few distillers have permission from the royal family to work with the Royal Hojari resin, as it is known locally. Also referred to as Sacred Frankincense, Boswellia Sacra Oil is used as a spiritual aid in ritual, prayer, and meditation.
