Myrrh Essential Oil from Somalia is a prized resin oil, known for its sweet, slightly spicy aroma with metallic nuances and hints of licorice. Typically used in middle notes of oriental perfumes, Myrrh complements woody notes, adding depth and warmth to fragrance blends. The oil is extracted through steam distillation, ensuring the preservation of its complex scent profile.

The Somalian government has implemented strict harvesting practices to maintain the sustainability of Myrrh production, including yearly evaluations of tapping frequency, tree rotation, and ensuring no pesticides are used. The gum is certified organic, ensuring high-quality and eco-friendly sourcing. Myrrh Essential Oil is a versatile ingredient, perfect for perfumers and offering numerous benefits in aromatherapy. Its soothing and grounding properties make it a valuable material in creating rich, earthy, and aromatic compositions. The oil appears pale yellow and is ideal for enhancing the complexity of fragrance formulations.
