Frankincense Carterii Resin

Raw: Bright, honeyed citrus with soft pine, lemon peel, and warm amber tones.

As Incense: When burned, the resin blooms into a luminous smoke. Clean, meditative, and gently balsamic, with whispers of spice and citrus. Its fragrance clears the air and calms the mind.

Revered since antiquity, frankincense was once valued above gold. It was burned in Egyptian temples, offered to the gods of Greece and Rome, and treasured in ancient trade routes that crossed the deserts of Arabia. In ritual and meditation, Carterii resin is used to purify, bless, and centre.

Modern practitioners use it to cleanse spaces, deepen breathwork, and infuse blends with resinous warmth. Its soft smoke harmonises beautifully with myrrh, copal, and sandalwood.
