Organic essential oil FRANKINCENSE is obtained by steam distillation of resin from the Boswellia tree – Boswelia carterii. It comes into Amon & Anis bottles from organic boswelia trees in Somalia. This essential oil is certified organic & food grade – Bio Aroma. This variety of Frankincense essential oil is called Boswellia Carterii (Sacra), which is the most prized and sought out of all varieties, because of its richness of scent. Other more known varities are: Boswelia Neglecta, which is a bit more fresh and less rich, and Boswellia Serrata, which has a completely different, intensely “smoky” scent, popular for its cheaper price.
