(Commiphora myrrha)
Myrrh resin has been used for thousands of years across the Middle East, North Africa, and the Horn of Africa, both in ritual practices and traditional medicine. Highly valued in ancient cultures, it was burned in sacred ceremonies and used for purification, healing, and meditation.
The resin releases a deep, warm aroma with balsamic, smoky, and slightly bitter notes. Its scent is traditionally associated with grounding, protection, and spiritual cleansing, believed to calm the mind and purify the space in which it is burned.
