This exquisite Frankincense carterii essential oil captivates with its multi-layered, rich incense aroma that resonates deeply, enveloping the senses in its warm embrace. Meticulously crafted through an artisan proprietary distillation process in the heart of the USA, this exceptional Frankincense essential oil is produced using hand-sorted, high-quality resin imported directly from the enchanting landscapes of Somalia.
What sets this particular Frankincense oil apart is its highly concentrated formulation, which elevates it beyond the ordinary. The proprietary distillation technique expertly extracts and preserves the heavier constituents found naturally in the resin, which are often lost in conventional distillation methods. This unique process results in a perfume-like essence that is deeper, richer, and remarkably longer-lasting – a truly tenacious aroma.
Due to the presence of these potent heavier constituents, which contribute to its extraordinary fragrance profile, this premium oil is not recommended for use in diffusing. Instead, it’s best appreciated when enjoyed directly or in personal care applications, where its luxurious scent can shine without dilution.
This magnificent Frankincense oil may be used to bring calm to the mind, dispel anxiety, increase enlightenment, and facilitate meditation. Frankincense carterii is a revered ingredient for creating ceremonial incense in India, China, and many parts of Southeast Asia. It is also used in the Western hemisphere by the Catholic Church.
