Frankincense

Boswellia species

Frankincense essential oil comes from aromatic Boswellia resin, a material with deep traditional and cultural history. This public summary introduces frankincense as a resinous, grounding oil while keeping the naming and evidence questions clear. Different Boswellia species, resin grades, extracts, and distilled oils are not interchangeable. In professional aromatherapy, frankincense is best discussed with attention to botanical source, aroma purpose, client preference, and cautious interpretation of research.
