Usage Tips
Tip for burning on charcoal:
Once your charcoal disc is fully lit we recommend leaving it to cool for about 5-10 minutes or until it turns grey before placing your resin on top of the charcoal. This helps to release the natural oil from your resin without burning it with intense heat. Remember, once the bottom of your resin starts to burn, safely flip it over with a pair of mini tongs to get the most out of your resin. Tip for burning on a tea light burner:
After your resin has been gently heating for about 45 minutes (depending on your resin size and dimensions of your burner) you'll notice your resin may start to burn. This is when it needs to be turned over. We recommend using a pair of mini tongs to safely flip your resin over and squash it once it's been softened by the heat. Squashing the resin open will expose it to a greater surface area of heat which helps to optimise the benefits of your resin.
Tip if your resin size is too big:
We recommend using a hand mortar and pestle (or similar tool) to create your desired size (if required).
Storage & Safety
Storage:
Resins are a natural product and need to be stored with care. Store in a cool, dry place away from UV sunlight exposure.

Here at Frankincense Pure we only recommend burning frankincense and myrrh resins.

To safely burn incense, either on charcoal or in a tealight incense burner, ensure it’s out of sight and reach of children and pets and that the area is well ventilated. Never leave your burner unattended and always ensure your burner is placed and remains on a heat proof surface when in use, away from all flammable items. Brass, stainless steel and similar type burners remain HOT when in use, never handle when in use.

We encourage you to do your own research or contact us and we'd be happy to send your the links to the research papers reporting on the numerous benefits including deep relaxation and positive mood benefits.
The greenish tint of this particular Royal Hojari Boswellia Sacra signifies not only rarity but also denotes its premium quality within incenses used across diverse cultural practices. The green hue also reflects the meticulous harvesting process, where only the finest resin tears are selected, ensuring the highest grade of frankincense. This makes Royal Green Hojari a sought-after choice making it a favourite among perfumers and incense enthusiasts alike.
Aromatic Profile
The Royal Green Hojari Frankincense is renowned for its good quality and distinct, multifaceted fragrance profile, distinguishing it from other varieties.
This incense exudes a subtly sweet aroma infused with accents of citrus, mint, and pine, underscored by the gentle essence of soft amber at its core. The result is an exhilarating scent that provides both tranquillity and stimulation.
The aromatic complexity is attributed to its unique chemical composition, which includes a rich blend of terpenes, sesquiterpenes, and other aromatic compounds. These compounds not only contribute to its captivating scent profile but are also reported to enhance its therapeutic properties. When burned, the resin releases an exceptional fragrance.
Harvesting and Grading Process
The collection of these precious resins is conducted with careful attention to sustainable harvesting practices.
The Boswellia sacra trees are tapped gently, either by making superficial cuts on the trunk and branches or by peeling away a small part of the bark.
This action prompts the release of a milky-white sap that solidifies into resinous tears upon contact with air, which are then gathered.
The heart of the Omani frankincense revolves around harvesting practices that are ensuring frankincense trees continue to thrive while harvesting their resin.
The quality, particularly the green variety, is critical for its revered reputation as a premium grade frankincense. In this process, each piece of resin is inspected based on rigorous standards related to size, form, and hue to ensure only top-tier Frankincense is provided to you. To produce even a modest amount of the esteemed Green Hojari resin requires an abundance of Omani Frankincense to be sorted.
Health Benefits of Royal Green Hojari Frankincense
This Frankincense is endowed with an abundance of compounds that foster health and well-being.
The presence of Boswellic acids in the resin, highly researched for their strong anti-inflammatory properties, contributes to its therapeutic effectiveness. Historically, these Boswellic acids have been leveraged in traditional medicine to manage various ailments. The resin has been used for many years to aid in deep relaxation, reduce stress and anxiety, and enhance a positive mood.
The reported anti-inflammatory properties of Boswellic acids may make them particularly beneficial for conditions where inflammation plays a significant role in pain and discomfort.
Moreover, it has been reported to assist with relaxation which highlights the popularity in health and wellness because of the versatility and its enduring appeal, making it a cherished addition to both traditional and modern medicinal practices.
This frankincense isn't just recognised for mitigating inflammation.

Introduction to Indian Frankincense
Indian Frankincense, also known as Boswellia serrata, is a deciduous tree native to the regions of India and Pakistan. This tree is one of the four main species that produce the resin used in religious rituals, incense burning, and traditional medicines. The resin, commonly referred to as boswellia resin, is a key ingredient in producing a popular essential oil used in aromatherapy. For centuries, Indian Frankincense has been revered for its ability to treat various health conditions, particularly chronic inflammatory illnesses such as arthritis, bronchial asthma, and ulcerative colitis. The boswellia extract, rich in boswellic acids, is known for its potent anti-inflammatory activity, making it a valuable natural remedy for supporting joint health and reducing inflammation.
Chemical Composition and Boswellia Extract
The chemical composition of Indian Frankincense is a complex blend of compounds, with boswellic acids being the most notable for their anti-inflammatory activity. The boswellia extract is derived from the resin of the tree and is widely used in supplements and herbal extracts. This extract has shown significant efficacy in treating chronic inflammatory illnesses, including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and chronic colitis. For instance, a randomized double-blind trial published in the Eur J Med Res demonstrated that boswellia extract effectively reduced symptoms of bronchial asthma. The active compounds in boswellia serrata extract work by inhibiting pro-inflammatory enzymes, thereby reducing inflammation and alleviating symptoms in patients with these conditions.
Health Benefits of Boswellia Serrata
Boswellia Serrata, commonly known as Indian Frankincense, stands out for its remarkable reported health benefits. The resin from this tree, a powerhouse of therapeutic properties, is reportedly extensively used in Ayurveda to manage conditions like arthritis and asthma. It’s not just traditional knowledge; modern science has started to substantiate these claims, highlighting the anti-inflammatory properties of Boswellia Serrata through scientific and medical journals and reports.
The reported potential of Boswellia Serrata to alleviate symptoms associated with chronic inflammatory diseases is particularly noteworthy, including the research reporting reducing joint pain or improving respiratory functions, the resin’s versatility in promoting health is impressive. Boswellia Serrata is reported to show promise in treating and enhancing immune responses, making it a valuable addition to a health regimen. Clinical studies have also highlighted Boswellia Serrata’s potential benefits for patients suffering from knee pain, particularly those with osteoarthritis.
Let’s dive deeper into the specific health benefits of Boswellia Serrata, starting with its reported potent anti-inflammatory activity.
Anti-inflammatory Activity
The reported anti-inflammatory prowess of Boswellia Serrata is largely attributed to its primary active compound, boswellic acid. Boswellic acids are reported to inhibit pro-inflammatory enzymes, thus playing a crucial role in reducing inflammation and alleviating symptoms of various inflammatory conditions.
Research indicates that Boswellia Serrata is particularly effective in treating chronic inflammatory illnesses such as rheumatoid arthritis and ulcerative colitis. Incorporating Boswellia is reported to provide significant relief from joint and muscle pain, making it a preferred natural remedy for managing arthritis. While Boswellia Serrata has shown benefits for conditions like ulcerative colitis, the evidence regarding its effectiveness against collagenous colitis is unclear, indicating a lack of significant benefit in maintaining remission for affected patients.
It is also reported that topical applications of boswellia may also assist in alleviating skin issues and inflammation. Boswellia Serrata’s reported anti-inflammatory properties provide a natural alternative to conventional treatments, illustrating its potential in modern healthcare.
Pain Relief
Boswellia Serrata has been reported to have demonstrated significant efficacy in providing pain relief, particularly for those suffering from knee osteoarthritis.
The pain-relieving effects of Boswellia are not limited to osteoarthritis. Research indicates that this herbal extract can significantly reduce discomfort associated with various conditions, thanks to its potent anti-inflammatory activity. This may make it an attractive option for those looking to manage pain naturally. Additionally, Boswellia formulations have been suggested to alleviate genitourinary pain in men experiencing prostatitis-like symptoms, highlighting its potential therapeutic benefits in addressing discomfort associated with this condition.
Furthermore, topical applications of boswellia oil have been reported to provide localised relief for joint or muscle discomfort. Incorporating Boswellia into your pain management routine can potentially reduce reliance on conventional medications, offering a more natural approach to pain relief.
Treating Bronchial Asthma
Boswellia Serrata contains beta-boswellic acid, reported for its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties, which can be particularly beneficial for managing bronchial asthma. The reported anti-inflammatory effects of boswellic acids are reported to help reduce inflammation in the bronchial tubes, a critical factor in asthma management.
Studies have reported that the frankincense, which contains compounds from Boswellia, may alleviate psychological stresses such as depression and anxiety, which often accompany asthma. This dual benefit of physical and psychological relief positions Boswellia Serrata as a promising natural remedy for asthma sufferers.
Combining its reported anti-inflammatory and psychological benefits, Boswellia Serrata offers a holistic approach to treating bronchial asthma, potentially reducing the need for conventional medications and improving overall quality of life.
Scientific Evidence Supporting Boswellia Serrata
The scientific community has shown a growing interest in Boswellia Serrata, with various clinical trials and studies supporting its efficacy. These studies have highlighted the positive effects of Boswellia Serrata on inflammation, pain relief, and chronic illness management. This growing body of evidence provides a solid foundation for the therapeutic use of Boswellia Serrata.
Initial clinical studies report that Boswellia Serrata may be effective in treating chronic conditions like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. These findings suggest that Boswellia can help maintain remission and improve quality of life for individuals with these conditions. However, it is important to note that evidence surrounding Boswellia's effectiveness against collagenous colitis is unclear, and there is no significant benefit reported for patients with Crohn's disease.
Ongoing research explores the full potential of Boswellia Serrata, investigating its effects on brain tumors and blood circulation. Continual advancements in this field open new avenues for Boswellia’s practical application in modern medicine.
Clinical Trials and Studies
Recent studies have underscored the clinical efficacy of Boswellia Serrata, particularly in improving patient outcomes. In a randomised controlled study on osteoarthritis, it was reported that patients receiving an enriched extract of Indian Frankincense showed significant improvement within just seven days. These findings highlight the rapid and effective action of Boswellia Serrata, making it a valuable supplement to support joint health and alleviate symptoms associated with musculoskeletal issues.
Boswellic acids, the active components of Boswellia Serrata, are reported to inhibit pro-inflammatory enzymes, which play a critical role in inflammation. Targeting these enzymes, it is reported that major boswellic acids help reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms, offering a natural solution for chronic inflammatory conditions.
The mechanisms by which Boswellia Serrata exerts its effects include the reported inhibition of leukotriene production and other inflammatory mediators. This multi-faceted approach makes Boswellia a potent anti-inflammatory agent, as evidenced by numerous studies published in reputable journals such as Eur J Med Res and J Ethnopharmacol.
Early Efficacy in Chronic Illnesses
Initial studies have reported that Boswellia Serrata may be effective in managing chronic inflammatory illnesses such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Clinical trials report that Boswellia can significantly improve symptoms and reduce inflammation in patients with these conditions.
Boswellia Serrata’s reported ability to sustain remission in chronic inflammatory conditions is particularly noteworthy. Reducing the frequency and severity of flare-ups, Boswellia presents a promising alternative for long-term disease management.
These early findings suggest that Boswellia Serrata could be a valuable addition to treatment plans for individuals to treat chronic inflammatory illnesses, providing a natural and effective way to manage symptoms and maintain remission. Additionally, research published in BMC Complement Med Ther and med pharmacol sci supports these findings.
Ongoing Research
Current research delves into the potential therapeutic effects of Boswellia Serrata on brain tumors and circulatory health. Early results are promising, indicating that Boswellia may have a role in improving outcomes for patients with these conditions.
Investigations are also exploring how Boswellia Serrata can reportedly enhance blood flow and circulation, which could have far-reaching implications for cardiovascular health. As research advances, the full spectrum of Boswellia’s benefits continues to unfold, showcasing its potential in various medical fields.
Practical Applications
Boswellia resin is not only valued for its medicinal properties but also for its practical applications in traditional practices. It is often used in the form of incense, providing aromatic benefits while also promoting relaxation and well-being.
Burning Boswellia resin creates a fragrant and calming atmosphere, making it a popular choice for relaxation. Its use in aromatherapy is also well-documented, with essential oil extracted from Boswellia offering therapeutic benefits when used topically or diffused. In addition to its use in aromatherapy, Boswellia resin is also available as a supplement, providing a convenient way to incorporate its therapeutic benefits into daily health routines.
Topical applications of boswellia extracts reportedly benefit skin health, alleviating irritation and promoting healing. This versatility makes Boswellia a valuable addition to both traditional and modern health practices.
Side Effects and Precautions
While Indian Frankincense is generally considered safe, it is important to be aware of potential side effects and precautions. It is reported that essential oil may cause allergic contact dermatitis in some individuals, and the boswellia extract may interact with certain medications, such as blood thinners and diabetes medications. It is reported that people with underlying medical conditions, including Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, should use Indian Frankincense under the guidance of a healthcare provider. Additionally, pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult with their doctor before using Indian Frankincense supplements or essential oil. A study published in the BMC Complement Med Ther reported that boswellia was well-tolerated and effective in reducing symptoms of mild irritable bowel syndrome, highlighting its safety profile when used appropriately.
Dosing and Administration
The dosing and administration of Indian Frankincense can vary depending on the specific product and intended use. The essential oil can be used in diffusers and is reported to be able to be applied topically with a carrier oil, or inhaled directly. A study published in the Med Pharmacol Sci reported that boswellia was effective in reducing symptoms of knee osteoarthritis. It is always recommended to consult with a healthcare provider before using Indian Frankincense supplements or essential oil, especially if you have any underlying medical conditions or are taking medications. Additionally, a placebo-controlled trial published in Phytother Res reported that boswellia extract was effective in reducing cerebral oedema in patients with brain tumours, further supporting its therapeutic potential.

Usage Tips
Tip for burning on charcoal:
Once your charcoal disc is fully lit we recommend leaving it to cool for about 5-10 minutes or until it turns grey before placing your resin on top of the charcoal. This helps to release the natural oil from your resin without burning it with intense heat. Remember, once the bottom of your resin starts to burn, safely flip it over with a pair of mini tongs to get the most out of your resin. Tip for burning on a tea light burner:
After your resin has been gently heating for about 45 minutes (depending on your resin size and dimensions of your burner) you'll notice your resin may start to burn. This is when it needs to be turned over. We recommend using a pair of mini tongs to safely flip your resin over and squash it once it's been softened by the heat. Squashing the resin open will expose it to a greater surface area of heat which helps to optimise the benefits of your resin.
Tip if your resin size is too big:
We recommend using a hand mortar and pestle (or similar tool) to create your desired size (if required).
Storage & Safety
Storage:
Resins are a natural product and need to be stored with care. Store in a cool, dry place away from UV sunlight exposure.

To safely burn incense, either on charcoal or in a tealight incense burner, ensure it’s out of sight and reach of children and pets and that the area is well ventilated. Never leave your burner unattended and always ensure your burner is placed and remains on a heat proof surface when in use, away from all flammable items. Brass, stainless steel and similar type burners remain HOT when in use, never handle when in use.
