Odor: characteristic
Use: Adam Michael has this to say “Despite what many businesses say about frankincense sacra the truth is no morphological differences exist between Boswellia carterii and Boswellia sacra, they are from the same species. What actually separates these two supposed species apart from each other is nothing more than habitat and time of harvest. Boswellia carterii is harvested in the summer months of March to late June (xagaag), Boswellia sacra in the winter months of September to late November (jiilaal).
