Although not many people use or even know of frankincense these days, back in Roman times it was massively popular. In fact it was one of the most prominent smells all throughout the empire. It was used privately as well as in temples or official buildings. Further, it functioned as a symbol of wealth and status. Frankincense had to be imported from Africa or Arabia and thus, was very expensive. Only the better off-Roman citizens could afford this precious commodity. And still today it did not loose any of its magic. Everyone that enjoys rare fragrances should give frankincense a try. Therefore, it also makes for a great present for every incensing enthusiast.
