Desert Gold Frankincense
Legacy Icons presents Desert Gold which is a premium, small-grain frankincense of select quality. This is a worship grade frankincense resin that we have purchased from a trade route in Northern Africa. This is not like a usual Athonite or Orthodox style incense but rather a resin or sap. Certainly used in both Orthodox and Roman Catholic services this has been a standard to burn since Christ's Nativity or birth in Bethlehem. Gathered directly from the tree, this incense will burn very clean and also burns quickly for quick prayer time or add more for longer. It begins with bright fragrances of pine and lemon, and develops into a deeper scent of fine leather and seabreeze.

Favorite Frankinsence
I love this Desert Gold Frankincense, it is my favorite Frankincense. I have tried several others, from Legacy and other vendors but this is the best. It works quite well in my smokeless burner and the fragrance is wonderful, perfect for prayer time and long lasting.

Not clean burning
This frankincense did not burn very clean as compared with the others I purchased from Legacy.
