Myrrh is a resin obtained from the sap of a small tree native to the Horn of Africa and Middle East. Known for its warm, balsamic, and slightly spicy scent, myrrh has been used for centuries in incense, perfumery, and traditional medicine. The resin is harvested by making cuts in the tree’s bark, allowing the sap to harden before it’s collected. The resin is then steam distilled to make this certified organic myrrh oil. Its rich, earthy fragrance is often described as grounding and soothing, making it a popular ingredient in spicy and woody perfume blends. Historically, myrrh was highly prized in religious rituals, mummification, and as a medicine.
