Like the rest of the incense family, Boswellia Neglecta, or Frankincense Neglecta, has been used in sacred ceremonies and rituals for centuries. What makes its resin unique is its black colour. The essential oil is mainly used in perfumery, its mild, woody, vanilla scent adding a special touch to men’s fragrances. Frankincense Neglecta essential oil is a marvellous addition to any essential oil collection, especially for those who like the smell of incense.
