- Never leave a burning candle, incense or palo santo unattended. Keep it away from children, pets and anything that can catch fire.
- Burn on a heat-resistant holder or plate that catches ash and embers, in a room with some fresh air.
- Loose incense and resins burn on charcoal: set the charcoal on a layer of sand in a heat-resistant bowl and handle it with tongs. Charcoal and holders stay hot long after the smoke fades, so let them cool completely before touching or emptying.
- If you have asthma or are sensitive to smoke, use incense and palo santo with care, in a well-ventilated space.
- Candles: trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before each lighting. On the first burn, let a candle burn about one hour for every inch of its diameter, and never more than four hours at a time.
- Store incense, herbs and resins sealed, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight so the scent lasts.
- Stones: wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Each stone is unique in color and pattern.

Description
Myrrh Resin Incense — earthy, balsamic natural resin
Myrrh is one of the oldest aromatic resins in human history. It comes from trees of the Commiphora genus — ours is Commiphora myrrha, which grows in the rocky deserts of Ethiopia, Kenya and India. You burn a few small pieces at a time on hot charcoal.
Scent and character
Myrrh smells rich, earthy and slightly balsamic, with a soft bitterness that gives it depth. All myrrh shares the same botanical name, but its aroma and character vary from region to region, much like coffee or tea. It is slow and contemplative rather than bright — a resin for evenings.
In tradition
Myrrh has been burned for thousands of years. In ancient Egypt it was part of spiritual ceremonies and embalming practice, and across many cultures it has accompanied prayer, offerings and meditation. It is traditionally used in smoke cleansing rituals and is often paired with frankincense. Today many people light it to mark a quiet moment, a meditation or the end of a long day.
