Dan, the quality of this oil is beautiful. The woodsy, warm, weet uplifting aroma is what I anticipated.
I purchased some gray ambergris to use for at-home perfumery. The product, shipping, and overall experience has all been great! I look forward to trying AG’s other offerings :)
I have been a regular customer of Apothecary’s Garden. They have excellent customer service and very prompt in their response.I love the quality of the resins and also that they have been ethically sourced. Loved the Boswellia frereana resin, and will definitely recommend it.

I just love the Sultan's Grade Frankincense. I save it for special meditation times. The scent is just heavenly. I have bought this a few times now when it is available
It’s very easy to tincture. The smell is beautiful. I was expecting it to be more Rock-like, but it dissolves easily.
I put this in most of my formulations to make the blends last longer. Also it’s good as a diluent for hard to dissolve ingredients. (Costus Root for example) Wish I could buy it in a larger quantity.
This is luscious stuff. Lovely tobacco odour, very little marine. Intoxicating almost.
I bought this product months and months ago, and despite using it frequently as a relaxing sleep aide I've probably only used a third of my tin. You really don't need much!
Quality is top shelf. The Chicle has a surprisingly sweet taste considering it has no added sugar. Just wish the larger portions were kept in stock.
I tincture this and use it in my Good Vibes sprays. I appreciate how generous Dan is with his knowledge. I’ve learned so much from his blog and appreciate his awareness of the environmental impact when sourcing materials. He’s also transparent when he isn’t sure, instead of greenwashing. Last, but not least, I love the respect, clearly communicated through his descriptions, that he shows for the different cultures that the materials are sorted from.
Dan is a treasure! My expectations are always high when I buy anything from his shop, and this sandalwood exceeds them. The depth and beauty of this bead waste has me considering tincturing or macerating it, it’s really lovely stuff.
Oh, this is lovely stuff.....
Intense, full bodied frankincense -- medium 'flavors' compared to Myrrh, but lovely and complex....
I smile when I smell this.
Trying to burn the resin hasn't worked for me; so I bought this and at last I can smell myhrr! I mixed it with frankincense absolute and dissolved it all in alcohol and I paint it on the back of my hand with a silicone palette knife (not sharp; no bristles to absorb the liquid). It drys kinda sticky... But nothing to bad, and eventually wares down after 36 hours; But I think I go a bit "smell blind" after 8-12 hours, I don't know. The smell is much more INTENSE than my frankincense and myrrh perfume from Trudon -- which you should absolutely buy, it's worth every penny for smell, staying power, and convenience; I think it lasts for 4-6 hours, but it's a lot more convenient than the perfume I made. Buy Myrrh absolute from apothecary Garden -- don't try to burn it, just open the bottle and revel in the rich smell!
This is the most fragrant resin! We don’t dare stray from your products- thank you 😊
The perfect resin for this time of year - very cleansing for the home environment as the seasons get colder.
Copalli Pom makes the best salves ... I steep mine with olive oil, beeswax and yerba santa. The topical/medicinal applications are many.
I am so in love with the scent of this essential oil, and going to test making salves from the resin ... smells like heaven.
Beautiful color and quality. Smells wonderful! Will definitely order again.
Delicious smelling resin, I picked the green royal I believe? It's amazing, I use that sparingly though!
Pretty fast shipping for me, barely thought about it and it came.
I'm a long time customer from etsy and I love everything from here to make my own perfumes.
Wow wow wow, I am truly at a loss for words. My 1g arrived today and I couldn't have been more excited. I've never purchased raw ambergris before and when I tell you the scent transports you, it almost like forgetting who you are and what you're doing for a second. I'm likely gonna prepare a 10% tincture or an oil
personally I love the scent and its one of my favorites as I live in a poplar forest (but cant be bothered to make the oil myself haha) This oil is great on my lower back pain, it doesnt eliminate the pain completely but dulls it enough to let me get some sleep.
We are very satisfied with the Frankincense we ordered last year and knew we would be just as happy this year. Excellent service and shipping to the USA arrived in timely manner. We will order again next year!
