Wildcrafted Frankincense Serrata CO2 Select Extract (Boswellia Serrata)
Wildcrafted Frankincense Serrata CO₂ Select Extract, obtained from the natural oleo-gum-resin of Boswellia serrata, a treasured frankincense species traditionally associated with Indian aromatic and botanical practices.
Produced using selective carbon dioxide extraction, this exceptional botanical ingredient captures a distinctive portion of the resin's aromatic constituents, offering a sophisticated fragrance profile that combines fresh resinous brightness with warm, woody, balsamic undertones.
Unlike conventional steam-distilled frankincense essential oil, CO₂ Select extraction can preserve a different balance of naturally occurring aromatic compounds, resulting in a unique material for artisanal perfumery and advanced botanical formulation.
Its beautifully layered aroma makes it an excellent addition to natural perfumes, resinous fragrance accords, aromatic balms, solid perfumes, and luxury personal care products.
