Sacred. Ancient. Irreplaceable.
For thousands of years, frankincense resin has been burned in temples, used in Ayurvedic healing, and traded across civilizations as one of the most precious botanicals on earth. Boswellia serrata - Indian frankincense - is the variety that has been at the heart of Indian healing traditions since antiquity. Deeper, earthier and more complex than its African or Arabian counterparts, it carries the full weight of Ayurvedic wisdom in every drop. Ours is steam distilled from pure Boswellia serrata resin, sourced from native Indian forests - not imported, not blended, not compromised.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between Boswellia serrata and other frankincense oils? Most frankincense oils sold globally are Boswellia sacra (Oman/Yemen) or carterii (Somalia/Ethiopia). Boswellia serrata is Indian frankincense - native to India, deeply rooted in Ayurvedic tradition, with a richer, earthier, more resinous scent profile. Rarer in Western markets and more aligned with authentic Indian botanical heritage.
- Is this good for meditation? Frankincense has been used in spiritual and meditative practices across cultures for thousands of years. Diffusing during meditation or breathwork creates a deeply grounding, focused atmosphere.
- Can I use this on my skin? Yes, when properly diluted in a carrier oil. Frankincense has been prized in skincare traditions for centuries. Always dilute: 2-3 drops per teaspoon of carrier oil.
- What does Boswellia serrata smell like? Warm, deeply resinous and earthy with subtle woody and slightly citrusy undertones. Fuller and more complex than common frankincense oils. Like the inside of an ancient Indian temple.
