Advantages: Many uses, gorgeous aroma

Disadvantages: none really

Myrrh has one of the most delicious aromas around. Woody, dusty, aromatic, it reminds you of old buildings and ceremony. It has been used throughout history in ointments of all kinds and in rituals.

In modern terms the oil has a number of uses. It is astringent in nature and indicated for diarrhoea or discharge. Also, because of it's anti-inflamatory, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial actions it has been used for treating mouth and gum infections. It has expectorant qualities, therefore very useful for laryngitis, bronchitis or loss of voice. There has been some clinical research done on the oil which showed that the oil helped to lower cholesterol levels.

To make the most delightful and evocative aromas around the home, blend with patchoulli, frankincense, sandalwood, juniper and lavender, or combinations of.
