Do you want to bring a touch of tradition into your safe space and open yourself to an intimate experience of purification and meditation?

Light a piece of myrrh resin — one of the oldest incenses ever used. Its dense, balsamic-spicy aroma brings a sense of depth and inner calm, purifies the air in the room, and opens the way to peace and concentration.

Enjoy it during meditation or prayer, as it helps calm the mind, enhance concentration, and create a spiritual and ceremonial atmosphere. It will wash away feelings of stress, nervousness and anxiety, thought overload and emotional exhaustion. It will harmonise your feminine side.

Its smoke will enrich your space with a sense of sacredness — on an ordinary day, during a ritual, or whenever you seek stillness and reconnection with yourself. Traditionally, it is used for both symbolic and practical purification of rooms, clothing, and vessels — to eliminate unwanted odours and repel insects.

Let yourself be enveloped by the aroma of our 100% pure and natural resin — free from binders and added fragrance, yet rich in a tradition spanning thousands of years.

Pregnant women should avoid excessive exposure to it as it can circulate blood in the pelvic area.

Instructions for use – how to burn incense

On carbon: Put the quick-lighting carbon in a fireproof container with sand, light it and add a piece of resin. This method is most effective for a quick energetic cleanse, though it produces more smoke and requires ventilation..

On a censer with a mesh screen: Specially designed censers ensure a gentler, longer-lasting burn, perfect for meditation or smaller spaces. After burning, remove the resin residue from the sieve with a brush or in warm water.

In an electric incense burner: A convenient, modern and safe heating method that prevents the formation of unpleasantly dense smoke. The incense burner is portable and ensures that the incense blends do not burn out.

Burning tips

For a purer fragrance, we recommend using a mica plate (a thin sheet of mica), which prevents burnt notes and ensures a gentler, longer-lasting scent.

Larger beans can be lightly crushed in a mortar to release the aroma more quickly.

Safety notice

• Always use a non-flammable container and keep it out of the reach of children and animals.
• Do not leave the fire unattended.
• Ensure proper ventilation.
• Do not inhale the smoke directly.
• People sensitive to smoke or pregnant women should use incense sparingly.

Resin or essential oil?

Resins and essential oils have some common effects, but they differ in many ways.

Incense blends natural resins, herbs, woods, and spices, releasing their aroma through charcoal, a censer, or an incense burner, while essential oils capture the pure essence of plants, filling the air or nurturing the skin when carefully applied.

Unlike essential oils, incense offers an authentic, ‘living’ fragrance with smoky and woody notes, delivering a swift and powerful energetic cleansing of your space while enhancing rituals, meditation, women's circles, and ceremonies.

Choose essential oils when you desire a subtle, long-lasting fragrance for your home or workspace, along with the benefits of aromatherapy Incense is perfect for powerful cleansing, sacred moments, meditation, rituals, and ceremonial practices.

Millennia-old Myrrh

Classic myrrh comes from the thorny shrub or small tree Commiphora myrrha, which grows in the dry regions of the Horn of Africa (Somalia, Ethiopia, Kenya) and the Arabian Peninsula. When the bark is wounded, resin seeps out and hardens in the air into solid, partially translucent “tears.”

The history of myrrh dates back thousands of years. In ancient Egypt it played an important role in ceremonies, medicine and embalming. Its inclusion among the gifts brought by the three wise men to the infant Jesus shows how highly valued it was.

In its region of origin, it remains an inseparable part of family rituals, celebrations and coffee ceremonies, prayers, and everyday hygiene practices. In the modern world, it is also used for oral care, in cosmetic products for mature and dry skin, and as a fragrance fixative in perfumes.

Myrrh is considered a resin with feminine energy, and is therefore used in rituals associated with femininity, often at night. It is the counterpart of incense, which carries masculine energy.
