It’s a great product well processed and the customer service is great

It’s a great product well processed and the customer service is great. Speedy with the delivery. I use Frankincense and Myrrh mixed because I read that they make a good synergy between the two and beneficial for health.

Frankincense Sacra Powder

Beautiful Frankincense Sacra Powder

I absolutely love the aroma of this Frankincense Sacra powder. It has a beautiful, deep resinous scent that feels earthy, dry and very natural. The powder is also much finer and more uniform than frankincense resin I have ground myself in the past.

I am currently testing it in the development of Root & Flower, a sensual macmaria I am creating around earthy roots, flowers and resins. I have just made my first small test with the powder in an oil-based macmaria, and I especially love how the frankincense develops on the skin. The oil absorbs beautifully, while a warm, dry, root-like resinous aroma remains on the wrist.

This is a fascinating material to work with, and it has already inspired me to explore frankincense and other resins further in my macmaria formulations.

Muskrat musk-Perfume Tincture
Frank Hoeflich (Lincoln City, US)
Muskrat love began on my last order

Dan wisely gave me a sample of Muskrat on my last order. You can see immediately why it's one of his favourites - it does have a warm animalic thing going, not as fecal as civet, so you can even dose it a bit higher. I would still combine this with Castoreum for added depth and fruitier leather.

Anyway, believe it or not, I'm using up the sample in a perfume for my mother - not what I had intended. But it's obviously a great enough material that I'm back for more. Thank you, Dan!

Excellemt face serum

Excellemt face serum. It makes the skin feel silky and hydrated. Will purchase again.

Siberian Cedar Essential Oil
Claudia Canales (Geneva, CH)
Beautiful oil

This is the second time I have ordered this oil. It is of very high quality and distinct due to the fact that production is artisanal, like everything else I have ordered from this shop!

Copal Santo Resin

It’s beautiful! Noticed the caramel first

It’s beautiful! Noticed the caramel first, then the fruitiness came in, and I’d swear I was smelling menthol after that for a short while. Finally mellowed into something soft, warm and leaves a really gentle n inviting atmosphere. Again as always fresh, fast and friendly- big thanks!

Benzoin Siam-Almonds
Anonymous (Manchester, US)
Like if a tree made a delicious pastry

I've never smelled benzoin before this, but I would describe this as my favorite memory of the smell of a quality pencil, shaved over vanilla ice cream. Sweet and woody and hard to not want to burn everyday.

Great base for adding other smells

This smells great with almost everything. It's like cinnamon, clove, and all the other warming spices gave you a hug.

Green Frankincense Dalzielii RARE
Anonymous (Manchester, US)
LOVE this stuff

I've been hyper fixating on trying new resin incense for a few months now and this is one of my favorites. I don't even like mixing it with anything because it's just so nice by itself.

Amazing and indescribable!

I just started to process this rare material, and it does not disappoint. It is an amazing fragrance that I have never experienced before, and honestly, I don't know how to begin to describe it. A salt and pepper type profile...pepper trees in hot sun at the beach....bright and exotic...the wilderness...I could go on... the profile reveals itself in a new way with every passing moment. I formulated an oleo resin for my beard...it is there, but not explosive.

This is a beautiful serum!

This is a beautiful serum! My skin feels amazing after only using for a few days. This also saved my peeling skin after a bad sunburn

Bursera heliae Resin
Chris E (Des Moines, US)
What a find! It’s beautiful

What a find! It’s beautiful, little different from the others, for sure, but seems to play well w/ other scents. It’s bright and fresh. I‘m a big fan of this one!

Magic balm

The smell, feel and effect of this balm is magic. We are on our third jar of it. It is indescribable and nothing compares.

Frankincense Rivae
Kathrina Cortez (Edmonton, CA)
Interesting and Earthy

This is definitely unique and stands apart from the rest of my order. It has a much stronger, earthier character with a fresh, woody and spicy aroma compared to the sweeter Sacra or Hojari. It's not what I expected but I appreciate its bold, complex scent profile. Keeping this in my collection.

Frankincense Sacra Oman
Kathrina Cortez (Edmonton, CA)
A bit too much bark

This had a pleasant scent no doubt. Great for everyday use but I was surprised by the amount of bark in what I received. I apologize if this is typical for this grade. I'm not entirely sure. I'll probably invest in higher quality resins going forward. Overall happy with the rest of my purchase just not this particular item.

Royal Green Hojari Frankincense-BACK IN STOCK
Kathrina Cortez (Edmonton, CA)
Worth the splurge

Even just opening the package, the wonderful smell bursts right out! This is absolutely exquisite. The scent is beautifully bright and citrusy with delicate pine undertones clean, uplifting and truly premium. The resin pieces are stunning with their lovely green hue and burn perfectly. Yes it's pricier than other varieties but the quality is unmistakable. Worth every penny!

Green Frankincense Dalzielii RARE

This a gem! Beautiful citrus mint aroma

This a gem! Beautiful citrus mint aroma, gorgeous green tears and burns cleanly. For the price, it's incredible value compared to Royal Hojari. Very happy with my purchase!

Frankincense Dalzielii
Kathrina Cortez (Edmonton, CA)
Pleasant citrusy minty aroma

This gives a pleasant citrusy minty aroma that reminds me of Royal Green Hojari just not as bold or complex. Still a lovely scent and the price is much more affordable. Solid buy and would repurchase!

Frankincense Carterii #1

New To Resin Incense & Learning

I can't say more other than I'm New to the Resin *Incense burning and so far I like the smokeless method best as it doesn't activate my smoke alarms like the charcoal does... Next method will be an electric burner in the near future.. I am completely satisfied and impressed with Apothecary's Garden... The Website is easy to navigate and ordering is simple with reasonably fast shipping... Frankincense is my favorite so far but everything resin I have tried is very pleasant as well... The Reviews play a big part with me making which to try next... There's so much to learn about what can be done with Resin and I'm learning so much here at AG.... Dan
