原料介绍｜索马利亚乳香 (Frankincense)

▎精油简介

优选产自索马利亚，温暖干燥的加勒卡约地区。位于东非的索马利亚加勒卡约地区，属亚热带和热带沙漠气候，终年高温，干燥少雨。这样的气候条件种植的乳香特别强韧。

索马利亚乳香树能适应贫瘠干燥的环境，树皮中流出乳白色树脂，清新又悠远的香气，宛若一位深沉智者徐徐述说着历史的沉淀。

｜乳香小知识

乳香因为价格较贵，而松香与乳香性状相似，市场上常有用松脂或松香、淀粉掺制的伪劣品出现，2012年抽样的50件样品中，有23件为伪劣品，其中22件验出松香酸，13件验出淀粉。 2017年抽验5个不同地区（亳州、杭州、成都、上海、重庆）市售乳香，显示皆为衣索比亚乳香，其中含量均符合标准，然而却发现有不同程度的掺伪松香酸。松香中的松香酸换算所掺入的松香均小于0.1%，但是松香酸有小毒，长期对人体有其危害，因此对乳香进行松香酸的检查有其必要性。
