Origin & Lore

Musk was traded from Tibet along the Silk Road to Persia, the Arab world and Europe, and it was used in perfume, incense and temple offerings. Today the scent is made synthetically to protect the deer. This oil uses the name for its deep, warm character in meditation, inspiration and transformation.

True musk came from a small gland of the male musk deer of the Himalayas, and for centuries Tibetan musk was considered the finest in the world.

Arab geographers and perfumers of the ninth and tenth centuries praised Tibetan musk above all others, ranking it ahead of musk from China and India. Legend in Marrakesh holds that musk was mixed into the mortar of the Koutoubia mosque so that its walls would breathe scent in the heat of the sun.
