An exquisite product, consisting of 100% pure Al Hojary frankincense resins extracted from the Boswellia Sacra tree found in the Dhofar Governate in the south of Oman. also known as the “Land of Frankincense”. It is believed that once upon a time, the frankincense resins (locally called Luban) were more valuable than gold. The Hojary resins are of high purity and rich in aroma, being one of the greatest treasures of the ancient world. They give off an almost citrusy and woody smell.

The fragrance of the Luban has a long-lasting effect. These grayish-white or greenish resins are extracted from Boswellia Sacra tree species that are found in abundance in the southern part of Oman. These trees have been here for thousands of years and have aged for more than a couple hundred years. The resins are hand-harvested by the locals using authentic methods for sourcing the high-quality resins. The process of harvesting is not an easy one as it requires special skills, expertise, and patience to excrete the milky resins, which may take up to 2 weeks from collection to solidification. The Hojary Frankincense resins are generally harvested from the months of April to June.
