Pure Omani frankincense essential oil is a highly concentrated expression of Boswellia sacra, steam-distilled from Hojari frankincense resin from Dhofar, Oman.
Frankincense has been used for generations in many different forms. Traditionally, whole frankincense resin has been burned, chewed, soaked in water, and included in warm traditional preparations. The essential oil is the concentrated aromatic form of frankincense, created through steam distillation and used for diffusing, massage oils, skincare, soap, salves, perfumes, and professional product formulation.
This one-liter size is designed for businesses, formulators, spas, massage professionals, soap makers, skincare brands, hotels, perfumers, and regular users who want an authentic supply of Omani frankincense essential oil.

It is especially beautiful during:

For Custom Aromatic Blends

Keep a record of:
Product formula
Essential-oil percentage
Batch size
Production date
Batch number
Testing results
This helps maintain quality and consistency from one batch to the next.
Important Information
This product is the steam-distilled essential oil form of frankincense. Traditional frankincense water and warm-drink preparations use whole resin rather than the concentrated essential oil.
Dilute before topical use and test new formulations on a small area first. Avoid contact with the eyes and sensitive areas. Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
The distinction between whole resin and steam-distilled oil is scientifically meaningful: Boswellia sacra resin contains gum, resin, essential oil, and other constituents, while the distilled essential oil is primarily composed of volatile aromatic compounds.
