The word frankincense is derived from the Old French franc encens, meaning “pure incense” and it’s an aromatic gum resin obtained from an African tree (Boswellia papyrifera). It is a milky white exudation consisting of 3–8%volatile oil, 60–70% alcohol-soluble resin and 27–35% water soluble gum, which soon hardens on exposure to the atmosphere.
The use of frankincense has a long history in human civilization. The natural oil content and pleasant smell of frankincense made it desirable to burn as an incense in temple rituals and to use as a base for perfumes and for medicinal purposes since ancient times.
