René Schöenfeld (Three Kings) Pontifical Incense
René Schönefeld’s Pontifical Blend is a revered incense, preferred by St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome. It features a unique mixture of black and gold glazed gum granules, creating a sensory experience that is both rich and refined. The aroma is a harmonious blend of high-quality, sweet incense types, with deep, complex undertones balanced by lighter, sweeter notes.
Pontifical Blend is crafted from three premium types of gum granules: Olibanum (Frankincense), Myrrh, and Gum Benjoin. These are sourced from distinct trees—Boswellia papyrifera and Commiphora myrrha in Africa, and Styrax benzoin in Asia. Each granule is carefully washed in perfume oils and enhanced with EU-approved pigments.
Designed specifically for liturgical ceremonies, this incense creates a profound, spiritual atmosphere when burned. It should be used with charcoal tablets, which are available on our website, to ensure optimal burning and fragrance diffusion. 1 lb.
