Adam Michael has this to say “Frankincense absolute produced by solvent extracting the Boswellia carterii gum-resin. This absolute exudes outstandingly rich, warm, wonderfully sticky resinous and dry notes along with a fresher lemony fruity top.
More full-bodied and richer than the regular carterii essential oil offering, this material brings together the juicy-fruitiness of ripe citruses with balsamic resinous-warmth and the moist coolness of an old church, offering great depth, complexity and versatility.
Frankincense absolute makes an interesting base note for fresh and citrus accords and colognes, in oriental, precious woods and spicy accords but also in high class florals where it will make a very elegant base note without dominating or dragging the composition down.
Of such a thick consistency that it would be literally impossible to work with, this material has been very patiently diluted at 50% in ethanol for ease of use and in order to prevent repeated heating that would inevitably damage the aromatic compounds.”
Botanical Name: Boswellia carterii
Origin: Somalia

Another one of my must haves, this frankincense is fantastic.
Rich and warming, even when used in a diluted strength.

A stunning beauty ! Did you know that Boswellia Carterii and Boswellia Sacra (most desired) are just the same plant ? Anyway, this one is a true beauty, both top and basenote.

Cold stone walls, a very churchy and mysterious Frankincense. Feels regal in a composition compared to many Frankincense essential oils.
