Botanica Gaia Hydrosol Toner Frankincense Carterii | Artisan Distilled | Boswellia Carterii

Boswellia carterii Resin Hydrosol, often called Frankincense Hydrosol, is a sacred, deeply purifying, and spiritually uplifting aromatic water distilled from the resin tears of the Boswellia carterii tree. Harvested from the arid regions of Somalia and the Horn of Africa, this hydrosol carries the legendary therapeutic and aromatic qualities of true frankincense—delivered in the gentlest, water-based form suitable for all skin types and daily holistic rituals.

Frankincense has been revered for thousands of years for its role in ceremony, meditation, healing, and perfumery. Through slow copper or stainless-steel steam distillation of raw resin tears, the hydrosol captures the hydrophilic components of the resin, including soothing terpenes, micro-droplets of frankincense essential oil, water-soluble boswellic compounds, and subtle aromatic molecules.

The result is a soft, clean, sacred-smelling hydrosol known for its skin-rejuvenating, grounding, clarifying, and emotionally balancing effects.

Boswellia carterii Hydrosol features a refined and serene aromatic profile:

Light citrus-resin notes

Soft woody and balsamic undertones

Subtle hints of lemon, pine, and amber

Clean, sacred, tranquil aroma

Unlike the stronger scent of the essential oil, the hydrosol’s aroma is gentler, more ethereal, and well-suited for facial mists, energetic cleansing, meditation, and luxury skincare.
