Myrrh Essential Oil 50ml – Commiphora Myrrha | Steam Distilled Somalia

Discover the deep, sacred richness of pure Myrrh Essential Oil, steam distilled from the resin of Commiphora Myrrha sourced from Somalia. Warm, balsamic and profoundly grounding — with a smoky, earthy depth, a sweet resinous complexity and a lingering, meditative quality — Myrrh is one of the oldest, most revered and most storied essential oils in the history of human civilisation.

Myrrh has been treasured since antiquity. Used in ancient Egypt for embalming, ritual and medicine, burned as sacred incense in temples across the ancient world, and carried along the great spice routes of Arabia and the Mediterranean, it is one of the few botanicals to appear in the oldest written records of human history. Mentioned in the Bible, the Talmud and ancient Greek and Roman texts, Myrrh was considered as precious as gold — a gift fit for kings and gods alike. Its name derives from the Arabic murr, meaning bitter, a reference to the intensely aromatic resin that weeps from the bark of the thorny Commiphora tree when it is cut.

In aromatherapy, Myrrh Essential Oil is prized for its deeply calming, grounding and restorative character. It is said to ease coughs, colds and sore throats, soothe digestive discomfort and support the immune system. It is also valued for its anti-inflammatory properties, its ability to alleviate pain and its reputation for promoting wound healing. In skincare, Myrrh is a celebrated ingredient — long used in luxury formulations for its purported ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and support skin renewal.
