Original designation: Myrrhe RDE MAX CTE
Commiphora myrrha
Myrrh is the dark, bitter voice of incense: medicinal resin, earth, smoke and a licorice-like warmth that seems both ancient and abstract. A concrete/resinoid presentation suggests body and tenacity, perfect for solemn bases and shadowed ambers.
