It means "true fragrance" and is also known as frankincense, olibanum, and lubanum.
It uses the resin extracted from the frankincense tree.

Frankincense has been burned in ancient Egyptian temples and Catholic churches as a sacred fragrance to purify the atmosphere.
Legend has it that the three wise men from the East gave it to Jesus as a gift when he was born.

Collecting frankincense, which is permitted only to a select few, involves scraping off a thin layer of tree bark with a specially made flat knife called a mankahu.
When you scrape off the bark, the green bark is revealed, and when you peel it back further, the brown skin appears.
When the tree is scraped, a white sap slowly oozes out; this is frankincense resin.
After about a week or two, the white sap will harden into teardrop-like deposits.
Carefully scrape off any hardened areas with a man cuff.
The sap begins to seep out from the cuts made by the mankafu, and is then harvested again; this process continues for about a month.

■Staff's My AromaMy my aroma is frankincense.
This is an attractive essential oil with a mysterious scent that mysteriously calms the mind, as if wrapping one in a thin veil.
It makes me think that the scent I like might actually be something my body needs.
