{"id":7564,"count":16,"description":"<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>THE FRANKINCENSE PROJECT<\/strong><\/p>\r\nOn December 2, 2000, UNESCO and the Sultanate of Oman signed a convention placing the Land of Frankincense \u2013 comprising four iconic sites in the Dhofar region \u2013 on the World Heritage List. For thousands of years, the precious resin has played a central role in the development of civilizations, sea routes, international trade and, of course, the history of perfumery.\r\nOne of the four listed sites is Wadi Dawkah, a 1,500-hectare valley that is home to almost 5,000 frankincense trees (Boswellia sacra). The trees have always been protected, but barely ever tapped.\r\nAn ambitious project is now up and running, driven by the Omani government and Renaud Salmon, Chief Creative Officer at the perfume house Amouage, with support from perfumery ingredient sourcer Dominique Roques. The new project centers on three key goals: to safeguard and develop frankincense tree cultivation in this unspoiled area; to build a high-quality industry for Omani frankincense essential oil; and to share this ancient cultivation tradition as widely as possible via a visitor center where people can learn about the natural environment, local heritage, extraction process and fragrance creation. The Nez editorial team is pleased to provide you with the opportunity to follow each stage of this extraordinary project in real time.
