Myrrh has been valued for thousands of years for its aromatic, medicinal, and spiritual properties. Originating from the resin of the Commiphora myrrha tree in regions of northeast Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, it was highly prized in ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, and Rome.

Historically, myrrh was used in rituals, religious ceremonies, and embalming, as well as for wound care, respiratory support, and skin health. Its earthy, resinous fragrance made it a symbol of purification, protection, and spiritual grounding.
