Tales from Nature
Boswellia Serrata is a plant native to India belonging to the Burseraceae family that reaches impressive size and develops a branched crown with ash-colored bark. The name pays tribute to biologist John Boswell while the appellation serrata recalls the jagged edge of its foliage. Historically known since ancient Egypt and found in biblical texts, the resin of this plant has accompanied religious cults for centuries by encouraging prayer and meditation. Ayurvedic medicine has always valued its properties for soothing irritation, while modern cosmetics have recently rediscovered frankincense to purify oily skin and relieve delicate scalps.
