Uzbek Frankincense

Uzbek frankincense, derived from the resin of Boswellia trees native to Central Asia, particularly from areas around Uzbekistan, is a valued aromatic used historically in rituals and for medicinal purposes. The scent profile of Uzbek frankincense is complex and enchanting. It typically features a mix of woody, earthy, and slightly citrus undertones. Upon burning, it releases a rich, balsamic aroma that is both grounding and elevating. The woody notes are deep and resinous, akin to pine or cedar, while the earthy aspects bring forth a warm, slightly spicy scent reminiscent of soil and minerals. The citrus undertones contribute a fresh, invigorating layer that brightens the overall fragrance. This unique combination makes Uzbek frankincense a sought-after ingredient in perfumery and aromatherapy, providing a scent that is both soothing and revitalizing.
