Frankincense (Boswellia serrata) essential oil, also known as Indian Frankincense, has a fresh, woody, and slightly spicy aroma with a hint of citrus. The scent is soothing and grounding, making it ideal for creating a calming atmosphere in aromatherapy.

Difference from Frankincense Olibanum: Frankincense Serrata has a more robust, earthy scent compared to the lighter, more citrusy aroma of Frankincense Olibanum (Carterii). While Carterii is often used for spiritual and skin-healing purposes, Serrata is valued for its potent anti-inflammatory effects, making it a popular choice for pain relief and medicinal use.

  • Calming: Promotes relaxation and emotional balance, helping to alleviate stress and anxiety.

History: Frankincense essential oil from the Boswellia serrata species is derived from the resin of the Boswellia tree, which is native to India and regions of the Middle East. The use of frankincense has a rich history dating back thousands of years, particularly in Ayurvedic medicine, where it is known as "Indian frankincense." It has been used in traditional practices for its healing and spiritual properties.

The extraction process involves collecting the resin from the tree bark and then steam distilling it to produce the essential oil. This method preserves the oil’s potent therapeutic properties and aromatic profile.

In modern times, Frankincense (Boswellia serrata) essential oil is highly valued for its wide range of benefits and applications. It is a staple in aromatherapy, skincare, and holistic health practices, known for its ability to promote emotional balance, enhance skin health, and support overall well-being. Its fresh and grounding aroma also makes it a popular ingredient in natural perfumes and colognes.
