Production
Harvest
Boswellia carterii is a small tree endemic to the Arabian Peninsula and the Horn of Africa, thriving in semi-arid regions. Its resin, known as olibanum, has been harvested by making incisions in the tree for millennia. The collected olibanum tears are then cleaned and sorted for sale under various qualities: chewing gums, religious incense, and gum for distillation.
Manufacturing
We have organized a dedicated supply of organic olibanum gums to offer essential oils.
We collaborate with wild-collected Boswellia sacra in Oman, specifically in Salalah, the Arabian capital of perfumes in the southern part of the country. Additionally, we work with Boswellia carterii collected in northern Somalia, in carefully selected areas to ensure consistent quality of the produced essential oils.
