The name Frankincense is derived from the Old French meaning ‘real incense’. ‘Olibanum’ another name for Frankincense is a corruption through the classical languages of the Arabic luban, which strictly means ‘gum’ but, in practice, is always applied to this commodity. Here we offer a wide variety of essential oils, resins, absolutes and co2 extracts.
