Rooted in centuries of tradition, Myrrh Essential Oil carries a deep, resinous aroma that speaks of sacred rituals, ancient medicine, and timeless healing. Extracted through steam distillation from the gum resin of Commiphora myrrha trees native to Somalia, this oil is revered not only for its rich history but also for its wide range of modern-day uses.

Thick, amber-hued, and powerfully aromatic, Myrrh’s scent is earthy and slightly smoky, with a touch of balsamic warmth. It’s often chosen for its ability to support emotional grounding and enhance spiritual practices—making it a favorite in meditation, prayer, and mindfulness routines. When diffused, it promotes a calm, reflective space; when blended into skincare, it offers support for dry, aging, or cracked skin due to its natural astringent and anti-inflammatory properties.

Used on its own or paired with oils like frankincense, patchouli, or sandalwood, Myrrh Oil brings depth and character to natural perfumes, therapeutic salves, and wellness rituals. Lyfe Herb’s offering is 100% pure, undiluted, and free of synthetic additives—a truly authentic expression of one of nature’s most revered botanical treasures.
