Living Libations

Continuer les achats ou voir le panier

Rivae Frankincense is a rare, wild-harvested essential oil from the resin of Boswellia rivae, collected by pastoral communities in Ethiopia’s Ogaden region. Known locally as “Mirafur,” this precious resin is hand-gathered from naturally thriving trees in the lowland forests, ensuring sustainability and ethical sourcing.

Steam-distilled to perfection, this Frankincense exudes a deep, resinous, sweet-wood aroma, with dark, balsamic undertones enriched with cedarwood, cypriol, and a candy-like sweetness. Unlike traditional Frankincense, Rivae is darker, sweeter, and more leathery, offering a complex and unforgettable aromatic experience.
