Description
Handcraft Blends Organic Frankincense Essential Oil is a USDA Organic, steam-distilled Boswellia serrata oil sourced from India. Its concentrated earthy, woody and balsamic aroma is suited to diffusers, custom fragrance blends, soaps, candles and properly diluted topical formulas.
USDA Organic Frankincense Essential Oil
Steam distillation captures the characteristic aroma of frankincense resin: warm, dry and woody with a smooth balsamic depth. This concentrated oil can be used on its own in a compatible diffuser or added in small amounts to layered aromatic blends.
The formula is 100% pure and undiluted, with no added carrier oils, synthetic fragrance or preservatives. Handcraft Blends packages the oil in amber glass to help limit direct light exposure and includes a dropper for controlled dispensing.
Benefits & Features
- USDA Organic – Certified-organic frankincense oil for shoppers who prioritize organic sourcing.
- Botanical identity – Made from Boswellia serrata sourced from India.
- Earthy, woody aroma – A warm balsamic scent for diffuser and fragrance projects.
- Steam distilled – Produced by steam distillation and supplied without added carrier oils.
- Versatile blending note – Pairs well with citrus, floral, herbal, woody and resinous oils.
- Quality-focused packaging – GC/MS tested, bottled in the USA and supplied in an amber glass bottle.
How to Use Organic Frankincense Essential Oil
Diffuser: Add approximately 3–5 drops per 100 mL of water, or follow the instructions for your diffuser. Begin with fewer drops in a small room and increase only if a stronger aroma is preferred.
Aromatic blends: Combine frankincense with lemon or sweet orange for brightness, lavender or clary sage for a floral-herbal accent, or cedarwood and sandalwood for a deeper woody profile. Record the proportions when testing a new blend.
Soap and candle projects: Confirm compatibility with the selected base and follow its supplier's usage-rate and temperature guidance. Prepare a small test batch before scaling the formula.
Topical Dilution for Body and Massage Blends
For adult topical cosmetic use, dilute Organic Frankincense Essential Oil in a compatible carrier oil before application. The product directions allow up to a 2% dilution, approximately 6–12 drops per 30 mL of carrier oil. Because drop size varies, formulators should measure by weight and follow the applicable supplier or IFRA guidance.
Use the finished blend on a small area first. Do not apply the undiluted essential oil directly to skin, around the eyes, or on broken or irritated skin.
What Does Frankincense Essential Oil Smell Like?
Organic Frankincense Essential Oil has an earthy, woody and balsamic aroma. Compared with cedarwood, it has a more resinous character; compared with patchouli, it is drier and less musky. Its depth makes it useful for balancing brighter citrus or floral notes without relying on medical or mood-related claims.
Organic vs. Standard Frankincense Essential Oil
Both Handcraft Blends versions are steam-distilled Boswellia serrata oils sourced from India and share the same general earthy, woody scent family. Choose this version when USDA Organic certification is important to your purchase. Choose the standard version when organic certification is not a deciding factor.

View report (PDF)How to use
Organic Frankincense Essential Oil has a rich, warm, and grounding aroma that’s lovely for calming aromatherapy and can be blended into skin and body care when properly diluted. Its scent creates a peaceful atmosphere and, when added to carrier oils, may help support a soothing massage or refreshing skin routine.
-
Diffuse frankincense essential oil using about 3–5 drops per 100 mL of water to create a relaxing, forest-like aroma in your space. It pairs beautifully with citrus, floral, or woody oils in diffusers and homemade room sprays to support a calm, inviting atmosphere.
-
For massage use, always dilute frankincense essential oil in a carrier oil. A general guideline is up to 2% — about 6–12 drops of frankincense oil per ounce (30 mL) of carrier. Massage the diluted blend over shoulders, back, or legs for a calming, comforting experience.
-
To freshen and revive skin, add a few drops of frankincense essential oil to your favorite moisturizer or blend it into a carrier oil first, then apply to clean skin. This can help support a smooth, refreshed feel during your daily body care routine.
Good to know
Warning: For external use only. Frankincense essential oil must be diluted before applying to the skin. Avoid contact with eyes and sensitive areas. Perform a patch test before first use and discontinue if irritation occurs. Keep out of reach of children and pets.

I like to mix this with jojoba oil for a nice facial moisturizer. It smells amazing and its organic and safe for skin. Love it.
B
I added it to carrier oil to use on my skin. Great results. It has healing qualities.

We've only been using this frankincense oil for a few days and already feel it helps with back and shoulder pain. Seems to be healing broken skin injury pretty quickly and started to use it on eczema rash in scalp to see if that will heal. A natural-pathetic Dr we met said by using it with coconut oil it will penetrate deeper. I also started using a little with the coconut oil under my nose and on my facial sinus areas and it has helped my allergy issues.
