Frankincense Hydrosol

Frankincense Hydrosol · Soft, resinous, citrusy

Frankincense hydrosol is the aromatic water collected during steam distillation of Boswellia serrata resin. It carries the water-soluble aroma compounds of the plant in a far gentler form than the essential oil, so it can be used directly on skin or added to the water phase of a formula.
