I was looking for reasonably priced organic Frankincese oil for awhile until I found it here. The quality of it is better than I expected (it is very good quality) and it is almost 1/2 the price to some well known branded ones. I use it before bed just put 2 drops in my palm and rub it in my hands and then take a deep breath of it to help me relax. I will definately come back for more. Highly recommended.
