Frankincense (Maydi) Resin - Boswellia frereana

The special Boswellia frereana species of Frankincense is highly revered for its bright, uplifting, and complex aroma. Its fragrance leans more toward fresh, citrusy top notes layered over a smooth, lightly sweet resinous base, creating a scent that feels both expansive and refined. The resin tears are often golden to amber in color, with a natural clarity and beauty that reflect its high quality and make it especially prized among connoisseurs. Frankincense resin is one of the world’s most important tree resins. Its rich, fragrant smoke has been used religiously, ceremonially, and spiritually across cultures for ages. Traditionally it is used for sacred offerings, energetic alignment, meditation, ritual, and much more. Many of the ecological practices, economic impacts, and cultural traditions surrounding the harvesting of Frankincense trees are in danger. More often than not, Frankincense is sourced unsustainably. Therefore, it is important to support the eco-friendly, sustainable trade of this powerful and symbolic ancient incense resin. Origins: Our Frankincense resin (Boswellia frereana) is sustainably harvested and ethically sourced from Somalia through our tribal co-operative partners. These particular wild harvesters are trained in healthy caretaking of the trees and even help to expand their populations.
