Simple and lovely. A new staple in our home. High quality resin.
Excellent quality, just a bit overpriced.
Ethiopian Frankincense (Boswellia Papyrifera)
This is my first time experiencing the Ethiopian Frankincense, Boswellia papyrifera. It has an uplifting citrus/evergreen aroma which is different than the Somalian Boswellia carterii. You might need an acquired nose to fully appreciate it, however I do not consider it to be a bad scent at all. This particular resin is perfect for medicinal use because it is one of a few Frankincense resins which are loaded with highly beneficial medicinal compounds. If you only care about the aroma, the Somalian Frankincense "Boswellia carterii" would be the better choice. Or better yet, consider the different Athonite-style Frankincense blends that Holy Cross Monastery offers. They all smell AMAZING!
It is the perfect size and the fragrance was perfect
