Myrrhe 20g - المر

Commiphora myrrha, granular to crumbly

Myrrh is as well known as frankincense, as it is mentioned in the Bible in addition to gold. In Egypt it was an important means of embalming 3000 years ago, and it was also a common aphrodisiac before Christianity. Myrrh was also used as a remedy for the plague and to reduce fever. In today's medicine, myrrh is gradually becoming socially acceptable again. It is valued for its hemostatic and contracting action against bleeding gums, intestinal cramps, bronchitis and intestinal inflammation, also chronic.

The smell of myrrh when smoked is warm, resinous, spicy and slightly sweet. Similar to mastic, it combines individual fumigants into one big whole. In addition, myrrh has an earthy, calming and concentration-promoting effect.
