Description

From the untouched and mystical island of Socotra, off the coast of Yemen, comes one of nature’s rarest treasures — Socotra Frankincense.
This exceptional resin is collected entirely by hand from wild-growing trees that thrive in the island’s unique and isolated ecosystem. The people of Socotra, guided by generations of tradition, gather the resin naturally — without tapping or harming the trees — preserving both the purity of the product and the balance of the land.

Because the resin forms and falls naturally from the trees under the island’s intense heat, it is normal to find small traces of bark or tiny stones among the resin. This is a sign of its authenticity and natural collection process — a reflection of the deep respect the local people hold for the trees and their environment.

Socotra is often called a “living museum” for its extraordinary biodiversity, home to plant species found nowhere else on Earth. The island’s indigenous people have passed down deep botanical knowledge, understanding each plant’s scent, benefit, and sacred use.

In line with efforts by the Socotra government and environmental organizations, the collection process strictly avoids any methods that could harm the trees. Our company proudly works hand-in-hand with local communities to uphold these standards — carefully identifying each variety, ensuring responsible harvesting, and bringing to the world the purest, most distinct fragrances of Socotra’s rare frankincense.

Every piece of our resin carries the spirit of the island — natural, untouched, and deeply connected to the ancient soul of the land.
