Gum Elemi (soft) (Canarium commune) from the Philippines produces a bright lemony, woody fragrance with a hint of fennel, frankincense and grass. Elemi is known to be clarifying and cleansing with energizing properties. It stimulates mental ability and works well for morning meditation, tai chi or yoga. It creates a spirit of hopefulness and is said to help relieve depression. Traditionally, people use elemi with substances that are refreshing and cleansing such as mastic, lemongrass, and sweet grass.

Best Incense Ever!
It is the "BEST" incense I have ever used. The most expensive frankincense irritates my sense of smell after using it awhile. But this gum elemi lingers like a shroud of mystery and very easy on my smelling sense, even after using it for quite a while. It has lemony, woody and something else I can't put my fingers to it that make it easy on your nose...I loved It!

review
Just wanted to say thank you for the resins that ordered. They arrived in 2 business days, really fast. As soon as i started to unpack the box I could smell the aroma of resins. So far I tried Elemi (Philippines) and Benzoin (Sumatra) which is Beautiful. The Elemi has an amazing energizing sweet-wood aroma. Also would like to mention the quality of the resins is good too, which very important. Wholeness!
