Personality: Frankincense has been part of sacred incenses all the way from Ancient Egypt, up to it’s being a part of incense in the modern Catholic church. This might be the scent you recognize AS incense, in a formal sense. Frankincense comes across almost as a priest for me, a bit stuck up, but quite kind, with a backbone or spine. It primarily does what it does by lifting the vibrations of things around it. This is often a general go to for me, especially combined with Myrrh and Benzoin, when I need incense, but I’m not sure what I need.
