Frankincense Pure Essential Oil

The Boswellia Carteri tree is indigenous to the Middle East. The name 'Frankincense' is derived from the French word franc meaning luxuriant.

Ancient Egyptians burned frankincense as holy incense. It was used to fumigate the sick and to banish evil spirits. They also used it as a face mask, and ground the burnt resin into a powder called kohl (used to highlight the eyes).

The earliest record of frankincense use was found on an inscription in the tomb of Egyptian Queen Hatshepsut (from the 15th century BC).
