Boswellia Popoviana – Premium Wild Incense Resin

Description

When collected at peak freshness, the resin often contains partially melted, glossy pieces — a natural sign of its high essential-oil content. These softer, amber-like fragments indicate that the resin was gathered while still “alive,” before it had time to dry completely on the tree.

You will also notice a fine, fragrant powder mixed within the resin. This powder is not an impurity — it is simply the crystalized surface layer of the resin itself, formed as the fresh droplets dry and break apart. When burned, this powder produces a quick, bright release of aroma that complements the slower-burning resin tears.

Socotra Frankincense  is a remarkable natural treasure, exuding from majestic trees without any tapping or harm. This sustainable harvesting method allows for the collection of beautiful resin droplets, which gently fall from branches and gracefully rest on the ground, creating a unique allure. As a testament to its organic origins, you may discover occasional fragments of bark and delicate twigs mixed within the resin, adding to its rustic charm. It’s not uncommon to find small pieces and fine powder—derived naturally from the resin itself—evoking a sense of authenticity and connection to nature.
