Myrrh
Description
Myrrh is a fragrant resin obtained from various Commiphora tree species native to the Horn of Africa and Arabian Peninsula. It has a warm, balsamic, and slightly smoky aroma with earthy and medicinal undertones. Myrrh has been prized since ancient times for its use in incense, perfumes, and traditional medicine.
How it feels
Myrrh-based fragrances evoke a sense of mystery, spirituality, and introspection. The scent can create a calming, grounding effect, making it suitable for meditation, yoga, or other mindful activities. Myrrh also has a certain regal and luxurious quality, making it a good choice for formal or elegant occasions.
Use in perfumery
Myrrh is commonly used as a base note in perfumes, providing depth, warmth, and longevity. It pairs well with other resinous notes like frankincense, as well as woody, spicy, and floral accords. Myrrh is a key ingredient in many incense-inspired, oriental, and chypre-style fragrances, where it lends a rich, balsamic character.
