Origin & Lore

Frankincense and myrrh are the resins of Boswellia and Commiphora trees from Arabia and the Horn of Africa, burned together in temples and churches for thousands of years. Frankincense is traditionally linked to the Sun and myrrh to the Moon, so the blend joins the two lights for blessing, purification and spiritual restoration.

Gold, frankincense and myrrh: two of the three gifts the Magi carried to Bethlehem were resins, which says how precious these scents were.

Myrrh is named in Exodus as an ingredient of the holy anointing oil, and frankincense in the sacred incense of the Tabernacle.

Both resins were used in Egyptian temple ritual and myrrh was used in Egyptian embalming, which tied it to death and rebirth as well as to the sacred.
