Frankincense Frereana Essential Oil

Frankincense Frereana Essential Oil is steam distilled from the resin of Boswellia frereana, the prized ‘Coptic’ frankincense of Somalia. This frankincense has a fresh, warm, balsamic incense-like aroma — cleaner and more terpene-fresh than the serrata type, and highly valued in fine perfumery.

At Kush Aroma Exports, our Frereana frankincense is steam distilled from selected Somali resin to preserve its fresh, balsamic incense character. As one of India's leading essential oil manufacturers — a trusted essential oil manufacturer, supplier and exporter, we supply every batch with verifiable purity and specification.
