Overview
Frankincense serrata adds scent, not firmness or skin feel. Its dry, slightly citrusy resin note is most noticeable when the container opens and can make sweet, smoky, leathery, citrus, or woody blends smell drier and less heavy.
There is no single amount that fits every oil and product. Check the supplier's current usage and allergen guidance and the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) guidance for the exact product type, then adjust only through small test batches. Add it after the base begins to cool and keep it tightly closed because heat, air, and light can weaken or roughen the scent.
