Frankincense



Frankincense is an aromatic resin from the boswellia tree. It is one of the most famous and oldest fragrances known to man, and was one of the three gifts supposedly given to Jesus on his birth.

The resin can be bought and burned directly on charcoal. It is a beautiful, sensual and evocative scent. It is also used in making incense. Sometimes it is a direct ingredient - added ground up as a masala, other times it is made into an essential oil. Sometimes the scent is created artificially. 

It is frequently blended with myrrh.
