Frankincense, presumably, was one of the finest perfumes available in Jesus' time. The other gifts offered, gold and myrrh (another perfume) were also very valuable commodities.
Frankincense which is an important component of incense shows the priesthood of Christ (While Gold represents Kingship, and Myrrh the prophet)
Those are precious during Jesus birth because Gold symbolizes wealth, frankincense for Honor and myrrh for power. During that time the wise men possesses those precious wealth and the have it offered to the King of Kings. THat's why they called also wise men and whoever give the mentioned wealth to God are wiseman.
In the first century frankincense was expensive and highly coveted, a gift befitting a king.
I believe that it is Matt 2:11 that states that gold, frankincense and myrrh were presented to Jesus. Only the best for the new King.
Jesus was born of a Jewish mother. Raised by Jewish parents. Raised of Jewish faith. Frankincense was one of the few scents that that were allowed/required, by God, to be burned during certain rituals and in the temple.
Frankincence was very expensive back then and it was a sign of great respect to give expensive gifts.
Frankincense was used in religious rituals. It was given to Jesus in homage to His identity as God.
It was symbolic of the prayers of the high priests rising up to heaven, foretells Jesus as High Priest.
