AROMATIC DESCRIPTION - Warm, spicy, rich, clean

Derived from the Old French expression franc, meaning noble or pure, Frankincense lit-erally means “high quality incense.” Frankincense was highly esteemed by ancient civili-zations and religions and used for the most sacred of practices.

In some religions, it is correlated with one of the most prized possessions of ancient biblical times, as the three kings considered it valuable enough to be given as a gift to Christ after his birth.

Frankincense was also used during religious ceremonies and is still used in places of worship today. It is also used in salves for soothing skin and as a perfume.

The perfume or aroma that it emits promotes feelings of satisfaction, peace, relaxation, and overall wellness, which explains its unique value in ancient times. Just as in its treasured past, Frankincense essential oil is highly valued in the doTERRA community today and continues to be one of the most popular essential oils.
