myrrh

The smell of incense — a combination of frankincense and myrrh — leached from every corner of the space, creating a somewhat soporific effect.

The delicately pink, multipetaled blooms of Saint Cecilia® have a rich myrrh bouquet, a scent sometimes described as earthy or slightly smoky.

This pretty kit contains mountain sage, frankincense, myrrh and white copal resin; a Selenite stick; crystals and a palo santo stick for smudging.

In texts, “antiu” was long thought to be a word that meant myrrh.

The word antiu, for example, appears thousands of times in Egyptian sources, and for more than a century Egyptologists have thought it referred to myrrh, the resin of a particular thorn tree.
