Somali frankincense is harvested from wild Boswellia sacra/carteri trees growing in the arid highlands of the Horn of Africa. Renowned for its high essential oil content, bright citrus-pine aroma, and smooth, long-lasting woody base note, the resin appears as translucent pale amber tears. When burned, it produces minimal smoke and an elegant, refined fragrance—making it a prized natural incense for yoga, meditation, and aromatherapy.
