At this time of year, we are reminded of the reason for Christmas which evokes certain memories, sounds and smells for all of us. Frankincense and myrrh are two of my favorites, so I thought I'd share a bit of information about them. Enjoy! ~ Susan
Treasured by kings, wise men and people of discriminating taste for millenia, the aroma of frankincense and myrrh evokes feelings of warmth, comfort, majesty, reverence and peace.
Frankincense & Myrrh have the rich aroma of two time-honored majestic oils. Frankincense and myrrh, aromatic resins from spindly trees, were once highly-prized from Rome to India, and deemed essential for a variety of uses ranging from religious to cosmetic to medicinal. According to Christian belief, the three wise men who traveled to Bethlehem to worship the Christ Child brought gold, frankincense and myrrh as gifts: sweet deep aroma with hints of citrus and vanilla. What a lovely gift!
