While frankincense draws its origins trees found in South Asia, the Middle East, and the Horn of Africa, it takes its Latin name of Boswellia from a source thousands of miles away- Scottish botanist William Roxburgh, who named it in honor of his friend Dr. John Boswell. With that unlikely connection in mind, Boswellia Scotia is a uniquely Scottish take on incense, built for the bracingly crisp air of autumn and the deep cold of winter in Edinburgh. Atmospheric, with enough warm richness to provoke a nuzzling sensation but also a striking inherent undulating freshness, Omani-harvested Hojari frankincense is the star ingredient, presenting a silvery incense profile that feels worlds apart from the cold austerity of ceremonial or church-y incense fragrances. Instead, Boswellia Scotia is both dense and warm but simultaneously weightless, with aromatic, amber, and woodsy elements providing layers of luxurious smoothness that only serve to highlight the exceptional quality of the frankincense. Rich, deep, and ethereal, Boswellia Scotia is a superior incense for those looking for a truly exquisite experience.
