What does Frankincense Essential Oil (Boswellia frereana) smell like?

The Somali Maydi olibanum: alpha-thujene and sabinene make it sharper, drier and more conifer-terpenic than carterii, with a fresh pine-citrus lift and only a thin resinous body behind it. No boswellic acids and very little balsamic sweetness, so it is the frankincense to reach for when an incense accord needs brightness at the top rather than weight underneath.

Every regulatory join - IFRA, GHS, allergens - is by CAS number, and a material can supply one through its constituents as well as its own row, so of the 569 materials carrying no CAS number the 244 without a constituent table are the ones that return "nothing known" rather than "nothing applies". The blotter hours are sourced rather than measured by us, and the app labels every one of them an estimate. There is no physical chemistry on a row: no molecular weight, no vapour pressure, no boiling point. The longer answer, or the whole catalog counted.
