Myrrh Resin (Commiphora myrrha) is a dried aromatic resin with a deep, smoky, earthy scent. Sourced from trees native to Ethiopia and Somalia, this resin has been used across cultures for incense, tinctures, and botanical formulations for thousands of years.
Traditionally valued in incense and ritual blends, myrrh is also used in DIY herbal preparations and has a long history of inclusion in tooth powders and mouth rinses due to its naturally astringent profile.
