SOURCE

Ollie’s 100% pure Somali Frankincense essential oil is extracted from the resin of the Boswellia carterii tree – native to the rocky, arid mountains of Somaliland in Northern Somalia. The tree’s milky sap is carefully and ethically tapped and left to harden into golden bits of resin before being steam distilled into oil. This time-honoured practice has been part of local trade and tradition for centuries.

Did you know? One of the largest buyers of frankincense is the Vatican – it buys several million kilograms each year!

Ollie partners only with growers that use sustainable and ethical farming practices. Every incoming batch is GC-tested for colour, aroma, and composition – ensuring only oils of the highest purity and potency make it into an Ollie bottle.

FRAGRANCE:

Somali Frankincense essential oil has a warm, resinous, and sweet-balsamic scent, layered with earthy woods, soft citrus, and a touch of spice. The aroma feels both ancient and luminous – grounding yet gently uplifting – making it a favourite for meditation, skincare, and perfumery.

Aroma breakdown:

Warm & Balsamic: The signature golden-resin warmth with soft sweetness.
Earthy & Woody: A grounding, temple-like depth that anchors the blend.
Peppery & Coniferous: Subtle spiced notes with whispers of pine needles.
Citrusy Freshness: Bright hints of orange and lemon to lift the heaviness.
Smooth & Balanced: Mellow and rounded, less sharp than other varieties.

CAUTION

Essential oils are mighty powerful. But remember, with great power comes great responsibility! Please keep in mind:

Dilute, always: never apply neat; mix 2-6 drops per 10ml of carrier oil. Always patch test.
Avoid sensitive areas: eyes, ears, nose, broken skin.
Storage: keep away from heat, light, flames, and always always always (as in, always!) keep out of reach of children and pets, to avoid accidental ingestion or other misuse.
Health Conditions: if pregnant, breastfeeding, epileptic, or managing health concerns, consult a doctor before use.
Environment: Many essential oils are toxic to aquatic life, so please avoid releasing them into the environment. Thank you, merci, xie xie!
