Frankincense Essential Oil

This sacred resin has been central to large spiritual gatherings as well as moments of solitude. Often experienced per fumus (“through smoke”), it embodies something we love about perfumes, themselves. It smells as otherworldly as it can make us feel. Its effect in elevating the spirit is, perhaps, one of the reasons it has stood the test of time. The very purpose for the resin is to heal the wounds of the tree from which it comes. When the tree is injured from damage to the bark or harsh environmental conditions, the resinous gum is secreted to heal and also protect it from pathogens, invaders, or further damage to its vulnerable wound. Countless testimonials abound at how Frankincense essential oil is healing to our skin in much the same way it is to the tree. Like a guardian and a warrior at once, it is no wonder Frankincense is as highly regarded for its ability to elevate the spirit along with caring for our mortal bodies.
