Frankincense Essential Oil

Frankincense essential oil has a sweet, warm, oily aroma with a light dose of camphor. It is used in aromatherapy for concentration, spiritual uplifting, and various nervous conditions such as stress. It effectively treats respiratory problems and is useful in treating the common cold, bronchitis, cough, and sore throat. Furthermore, it is particularly beneficial for mature skin as it revitalizes tired skin, relaxing tension from facial muscles, smoothing expression lines, and generally improving the appearance of wrinkles. On a psychological level, it has the property of slowing breathing, helping to remove fear and nervous tension, and is also suitable for meditation. It blends well with Sandalwood, Geranium, Lavender, Neroli, Orange, Bergamot, and Basil.

"Boswellia Serrata or Boswellia Thurifera is a small tree, known for the aromatic resin produced by its trunk, the biblical frankincense. This species is native to much of India and the Punjab region extending into Pakistan and produces Indian frankincense. When burned as incense, it contributes to spiritual uplift and has been an integral part of religious and social ceremonies for millennia."
