RARE Myrrh Resin from Socotra Island
The rarest myrrh resin known to man, directly from socotra island, dark and rich, exudes a fragrance as complex and captivating as the island itself. It's not merely a scent; it's a journey. First, a wave of earthy warmth, like sun-baked soil after a summer rain. Then, a subtle sweetness emerges, reminiscent of ripe dates and honeyed figs, a taste of paradise. Underneath, a hint of spice, a whisper of incense, adds depth and intrigue. The resin itself is surprisingly smooth, almost velvety to the touch, yet with a hidden strength, like the island's resilient people. It's a fragrance that lingers, a memory that unfolds slowly, revealing new facets with each inhale. It's the scent of ancient rituals, of sun-kissed shores, of a land untouched by time. Socotra myrrh: a treasure from a mystical island, a fragrance as unique and unforgettable as its origin.
Scent Profile:
Top- Fig and balsamic syrup
Middle-Dark old wood
Base- Earth and smoke
Notes: dates, heated soil, spice
Warmer instructions:
place a SMALL clump/spoonful (approx 0.5 grams) on the warmer, allow it to melt for 5 minutes, when the mixture has slightly melted and darkened in colour, use the wooden stick provided to stir the mixture, pinching any remaining resin, and sprinkling it back into the warmer. Stir once every 10-15 minutes for even fragrance distribution. Resins can burn and release scent for up to and in excess of 4-6 hours. When mixture is black/VERY dark and no longer acts like a sticky oil, and acts more like a dry stone, the mixture has come to the end of its life and can simply be collected and sprinkled into garden beds or flushed down the toilet.
Coal/traditional burning instructions :
Very carefully follow coal instructions and wait until the coal is completely ignited and has a thin, white coating of soot. ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION, Take a VERY small amount of the mixture: approx 0.15G (for indoor use) and place onto coal using tweezers or a small, metal spoon. When mixture stops smoking and creates a black char on the coal, it has come to the end of its life and you may either repeat the above steps until coal is no longer ignited or simply wait for the coal to burn out.
