Certified Organic Irish Apothecary's Own Brand 100% Pure Essential Oil Frankincense oil is a member of the Burseraceae family. This oil has a fresh, terpene top note with a rich, sweet-balsamic undertone and is classed as a base note. Frankincense blends well with camphoraceous, citrus, earthy, floral, herby, minty, spicy and woodsy oils. Top Notes: Fresh and Citrusy: The initial aroma is light and invigorating, with subtle citrusy hints that provide a fresh and uplifting start. Slightly Sweet: There is a delicate sweetness that balances the initial freshness, making it pleasant and appealing. Middle Notes: Warm and Woody: As the top notes fade, the heart of the aroma reveals a warm, woody character. This richness brings a sense of depth and complexity to the scent. Resinous and Balsamic: The middle notes are marked by a resinous, balsamic quality, reminiscent of the tree resin from which the oil is derived. This gives the scent a slightly earthy, grounding feel. Base Notes: Earthy and Deep: The base of the aroma is profoundly earthy, grounding, and calming. It provides a stable foundation that lingers, imparting a sense of tranquility and balance. Incense-Like: The dry down of frankincense essential oil has a characteristic incense-like quality, deeply soothing and meditative.
