How to use

Diffuse sparingly to create a grounded, contemplative environment during meditation, evening rituals, and spiritual practices where a deep, resinous atmosphere supports stillness and presence. A small amount goes a long way in diffusion.

A natural companion to frankincense in ceremonial and ritual blending traditions, where the two resins have been used together for thousands of years. Often used in anointing oils, sacred blends, and intentional aromatherapy formulations where heritage and depth are part of the product's purpose.

Valued in natural skin care for its richness and depth, frequently used in facial oils, balms, and body butters formulated for mature or very dry skin. Commonly included in lip balms and lip care products where its thick, conditioning quality is a functional asset as well as an aromatic one.

Can be added to warming massage oils and muscle balms when well diluted. Due to its thick consistency, blending with lighter carrier oils before adding to a formula helps with even dispersion and smooth application.

Used in natural incense blends, room-cleansing sprays, and home fragrance products where its deep, earthy-resinous aroma adds an unmistakable sense of gravitas and intention.

Due to its thickness and intensity, dilute thoroughly in all topical applications. Avoid use during pregnancy.

Caution

Skin sensitivity may occur. Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be diluted before applying directly to the skin. Keep out of reach from children. If pregnant or breastfeeding please ask your doctor before use.
