Frankincense Hydrolat | Floral Water

Also known as Olibanum, Frankincense is a small tree or shrub with abundant pinnate leaves and white and pale pink flowers. It yields natural oleo gum resin which is collected by making incisions into the bark. At first, a milky white liquid appears which then solidifies into tear-shaped amber-orange-brown lumps between the size of a pea and a walnut.

Hydrolats are gentle and effective. They are known as hydrosols or floral waters and these are aromatic waters produced by steam distillation of botanical materials used during the production of essential oils. Containing not only the most water-soluble chemicals from the plant materials but also microscopic drops of the essential oils.
