Frankincense

Ethereal Resins is proud to present some of the world's finest frankincense resins, our premium Boswellia carterii "Beyo" resins, from the Puntland region of Somalia. 

​

Our resin is bright in scent and naturally oily, full of uplifting citrusy aromatics that offer notes of lemon sherbet and strong green-boswellic notes of the purest frankincense. Our partner in Somalia, Abdibasid, comes from a long line of harvesters and sellers of frankincense and myrrh, giving him and his family access and expertise to some of the world's highest quality incense resins.

 

We package our resins in the UK a few weeks after harvest, ensuring the utmost freshness of these resins for our customers. We utilise eco-conscious and affordable packaging in line with or our long-term mission to secure sustainability status for our traditional partners across the world.

Myrrh

Ethereal Resins is proud to the world's finest myrrh, our premium commiphora myrrha resin from the Las Anod region of Somalia.

 

Our traditional incense resins are imported and packaged within a few weeks of harvesting, ensuring that luxurious and all-natural fragrances are sealed in for the enjoyment of our customers. Our product packaging also serves as a handy long-term storage solution, offering a place to keep the resins tucked away inside the drawer box compartment.

 

Often, incense resins on the market are low quality, dry, and overpriced. Incense sticks and scented oils can also contain artificial fragrances. We're offering something different: fresh retail-ready incense resins that offer customers a natural solution to home and ritual fragrance.

 

Worldwide traditional incense practices have incorporated frankincense and myrrh for thousands of years. It has long been traded and burned for its meditative and cleansing properties, helping to remove microbes and other nasties from the air. By using raw and traditional incense resins such as these, we can transition away from toxic mass-produced scented products towards a more sustainable model. We hope that our frankincense and myrrh can transform the way that people approach home fragrance by offering a return to naturally powerful and clean resins, harvested from the wild. 

 

Our partner in Somalia, Abdibasid, comes from a long line of frankincense and myrrh harvesters who have exported resins from their native Puntland for generations. By dealing in only the highest quality incense resins and working directly with communities in Somalia, we are able to encourage more sustainable and traditional harvesting practices. In the near future, we hope to work with organisations such as Save Frankincense and FairWild to certify and protect our supply chains to ensure that our sustainable trade well continues into the future.
