The tree is cultivated in Ethiopia because of its valuable resin. The incense smoke is characterized by a fresh lemon-pine scent,[3] and is therefore highly esteemed. In Ethiopia where it is called itan zaf,[4] it comes in semi-translucent yellow tears. The gum resin of Boswellia papyrifera coming from Ethiopia, Sudan and E. Africa is believed to be the main source of frankincense of antiquity.[5] Chemical constituentsIn studies conducted on the chemical properties of the oleo-gum resin of B. papyrifera, it was shown to contain a high concentration of octyl acetate (57.1–65.7%) and N-octanol (3.4–8.8%), the former accounting for its citric note. The species also contain diterpenes and nortriterpenes; the methanol extracts specifically consisting of the following diterpenes: incensole, incensyl acetate and verticilla-4(20),7,11-triene). It also contained the following triterpenes: β-amyrin, α-amyrin, β-amyrenone, and α-amyrenone. The oleogum resin also contained nortriterpenes (24-noroleana-3,12-diene and 24-norursa-3,12-diene) and α-boswellic acid.[6] References1. ^{{GRIN | accessdate=24 September 2014}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q2367386}}{{Sapindales-stub}}2. ^Äthiopischer Weihrauch (Ethiopian incense) 3. ^Ethiopian Oils and Resins 4. ^Agroforestry in Ethiopia, bottom of p. 3. 5. ^{{cite journal |first= Arthur O. |last=Tucker |title=Frankincense and myrrh |journal=Economic Botany |date=October 1986 |volume=40 |issue=4 |pages=425–433 |doi=10.1007/BF02859654}} 6. ^{{cite journal |first=D. |last=Bekana |first2=T. |last2=Kebede |first3=M. |last3=Assefa |first4=H. |last4=Kassa |title=Comparative Phytochemical Analyses of Resins of Boswellia Species (B. papyrifera (Del.)
