Plant: Commiphora myrrha

Origin: Yemen

Aroma: sweet, with a hint of acidity that becomes more pronounced toward the end of the burn.

History and traditions: Used by the ancient Egyptians as one of the ingredients of Kyphi, myrrh embodies the energy of our planet and reconnects with the earth. Fumigation with this resin was believed to soothe the tired and confused mind.
