The exact historical origin of burning incense is unknown but the first recorded use can be found in Ancient Egypt more than 6000 years ago. Resin balls were found in many prehistoric Egyptian tombs in El Mahasna in Sohag.

True incense comes from tree resin found in parts of Africa, the Middle East or India. Since the dawn of time, people have burned this resin to enjoy its warm and amber fragrance.

It is said to reveal energies that are invisible on the physical dimension and help inspire insights into the Divine. More generally, it is burned for purification. Frankincense resin is found in trees in the Middle East and North Africa, where it gathers energy from the hot desert sun and eliminates negativity.

These ranges of natural Tree Resins all have wonderful aromas and spiritual properties.
