"Burning of Boswellia resin as incense has been part of religious and cultural ceremonies for millennia and is believed to contribute to the spiritual exaltation associated with such events. Transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) 3 is an ion channel implicated in the perception of warmth in the skin. TRPV3 mRNA has also been found in neurons through-out the brain; however, the role of TRPV3 channels there remains unknown. Here we show that incensole acetate (IA), a Boswellia resin constituent, is a potent TRPV3 agonist that causes anxiolytic-like and antidepressive-like behavioral effects in wild-type (WT) mice with concomitant changes in c-Fos activation in the brain." \\ | "Burning of Boswellia resin as incense has been part of religious and cultural ceremonies for millennia and is believed to contribute to the spiritual exaltation associated with such events.

"... 250 components had been identified in olibanum oil or as pyranolysis products of the resin; however, no charcater-impact compound was among these... Olibanum resin contains several odorless cembranoid diterpenes [7.511-7.513 meaning cembrene A, incensol, 1-hydroxycembrene A] and pentycaclic diterpenes, of which yet unidentified pyrolysis products are considered to contribute to the typical odor of incense smoke. Cembrene A was initially identified in pine tree resins, whereas incensol and its 1-hydroxy derivative occur in olibanum only." \\ | |

| Only one synthetic incense odorant, namely 2-methyl undecanoic acid (Mystikal) with its humid resinous incense note, conveys the typical olibanum odor. \\ |

α-Pinene (11-24%), limonene (11-18%) and myrcene (2-8%) were the main components of B.sacra extracts. α-Pinene, β-myrcene, 1,8-cineole, linalool, verbenone, trans-carveol, carvone, thymoquinone, germacrene D, α-copaene, p-cresol, serratol, o-methyl anisole, sotolone, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate and especially two unidentified substances (A: broth, meat, spicy and and B: coniferous, woody, peppery) were identified | α-Pinene (11-24%), limonene (11-18%) and myrcene (2-8%) were the main components of B.sacra extracts. α-Pinene, β-myrcene, 1,8-cineole, linalool, verbenone, trans-carveol, carvone, thymoquinone, germacrene D, α-copaene, p-cresol, serratol, o-methyl anisole, sotolone, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate and especially two unidentified substances (A: broth, meat, spicy and and B: coniferous, woody, peppery) were identified |

The key molecular constituents contributing to the characteristic odor of olibanum seem to be (1S,2S)-(+)-trans- and (1S,2R)-(+)-cis-2-octylcyclopropyl-1-carboxylic acid. These highly potent odorants occure in ppm amounts in all frankincense samples analyzed "... even those showing radically different volatile compositions. These cyclopropyl-derived acids provide the very characteristic old churchlike endnote of the frankincense odor." \\ | Two oxygenated sesquiterpenes, rotundone and mustakone, are potent odorants of frankincense with very low odor thresholds. During GC-O analysis it was observed that close to the threshold level, rotundone imparts a more woody, coniferous, incense-like, and only slightly peppery smell, while at somewhat higher levels the strong, distinct peppery note arises. Mustakone (non-anosmic panelists: odor th <0.01 ng/L) is "...described by panelists as spicy, woody, slightly fatty, meat-broth-like, and balsamic. Interestingly, some panelists remarked that the smell resembles that of α-copaene, which was reported to contribute to the smell of frankincense and smells 'spicy, broth, woody'." \\ |
