Part of Plant: Tree Resin
Extraction: Steam Distillation
Description & Scent Profile:
Steam-distilled from the fragrant tree resin of Somalian Commiphora myrrha, Myrrh essential oil is an ancient, revered resinous botanical with a rich, warm, smoky-earth aroma and subtle sweet-balsamic undertones. Containing naturally occurring Furanoeudesmadiene and Curzerene, Myrrh is celebrated in luxury skincare for its moisture-locking and skin-soothing qualities. Uniquely grounding, it fosters spiritual stillness, quietens emotional restlessness, and anchors mind and spirit during meditation, sacred rituals, and reflective evening routines.
Key Botanical, Cosmetic & Mindful Benefits:
Deeply Nourishing Skincare: Intensely hydrates and comforts dry, chapped, or weathered complexions, helping reinforce the skin’s natural moisture barrier and smooth rough texture.
Soothing Oral & Hygiene Care: Refreshes breath and supports daily mouth hygiene when added to natural oral gargles or tooth cleansers.
Centring & Meditative Aromatherapy: Quietens mental overactivity, promotes a deep sense of inner strength and calm, and provides a sacred, grounding backdrop for meditation and prayer.
Fixative Perfume Base: Serves as a rich, warm, long-lasting resinous base note that grounds floral and citrus top notes in custom natural perfumes.
Best Ways to Experience:
Restorative Moisture-Locking Facial Serum: Dilute 1 drop of Myrrh into 10 ml of Jojoba or Rosehip seed oil. Gently press onto clean face and neck to soothe dry patches and restore smooth hydration.
Grounded Meditation Diffusion: Add 2–3 drops of Myrrh, 2 drops of Rose Blossom, and 1 drop of Lemon Verbena to your ultrasonic diffuser to create a serene, clearheaded, and sacred room ambiance.
Refreshing Oral Hygiene Gargle: Add 1 drop of Myrrh to a glass of warm water or saline solution for a refreshing, mouth-cleansing gargle that leaves breath feeling crisp and clean.
Comforting Body & Hand Cream Booster: Add 1–2 drops to a palmful of unscented lotion or rich hand balm to soften weathered, chapped skin during cold-weather seasons.
Aromatherapist's Tip: Myrrh resin oil is naturally thick and viscous. Warm the bottle between your palms for a minute before dispensing to help drops flow smoothly. Blend with Sandalwood and Frankincense for a classic, meditative resin synergy.
