What It Brings to Your Mind

Frankincense carries a calm, resinous depth that helps slow scattered thoughts and bring the mind back to stillness.

Its meditative aroma feels like entering a quiet room after a long, noisy day — allowing the breath to deepen, tension to soften, and the mind to return to a clearer, more grounded state.

What It Brings to Your Body

Frankincense can support a slower, more comfortable breathing rhythm and help ease discomfort in the respiratory system. 

When blended with a carrier oil, it can also be used in body care rituals to support skin repair, mature skin care, and a more complete sense of restoration — from skin, to breath, to mind.

The Story of Frankincense

Frankincense (Boswellia serrata) comes from the resin of the Frankincense tree and belongs to the Burseraceae plant family.

Since ancient times, Frankincense has been valued as a symbol of purification and stillness. Its resinous aroma was often used in sacred rituals, temple ceremonies, and royal incense to cleanse the air, calm the spirit, and create a peaceful atmosphere. It was once one of the precious gifts offered by the Three Wise Men, and has long been treasured across different cultures for its protective and restorative qualities. In Ayurveda, Frankincense was traditionally used as a medicinal resin and later became widely used in Chinese herbal traditions.

With its deep resinous character and quiet woody warmth, Frankincense remains a timeless aroma for meditation, breathing, reflection, and inner clarity.

Ritual Pairing

You Might Want to Know

1. Why does it take so much plant material to make essential oil?

Essential oils are highly concentrated botanical extracts. The aromatic compounds are present in very small amounts within flowers, leaves, fruits, roots, or other plant parts, so a large amount of plant material is needed to produce even a small amount of essential oil.

This is also why pure essential oils are so concentrated, aromatic, and powerful in use.

2. Do all plants require the same amount of material to produce essential oil?

No. Different plants contain different levels of aromatic compounds, so the amount of raw plant material needed can vary greatly.

For example, rose essential oil requires a very large amount of rose petals, while some herbal oils may require much less plant material to extract the same amount of oil.

3. Why are some essential oils more expensive than others?

The price of an essential oil depends on several factors, including the rarity of the plant, its origin, harvesting conditions, extraction difficulty, and yield.

Some oils, such as rose essential oil, require a large amount of raw material and delicate extraction, which makes them more costly. In general, pure, high-quality, well-tested essential oils are priced higher because of their sourcing and production standards.

4. How can essential oil quality be assured?

High-quality essential oils should come from carefully grown and harvested plants, and should be extracted through suitable professional methods.

Lanluis essential oils are tested to help ensure they are free from unnecessary additives, artificial fragrance, and unwanted impurities, while preserving the natural aromatic profile of the plant.

5. What should I pay attention to when using essential oils?

  • Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be used with care.
  • Do not apply undiluted essential oil directly onto the skin. Always dilute with a suitable carrier oil before topical use.
  • Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and other sensitive areas.
  • Keep away from children and pets.
  • If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or have a long-term health condition, consult a qualified professional before use.
  • Different essential oils may not suit everyone. For example, people with G6PD deficiency should avoid certain oils such as peppermint oil.
