Aksha Myrrh is Extremely RARE and hails from Socotra Island's Commiphora Ornifolia tree. Aksha Myrrh (Commiphora Ornifolia) is very different to any other myrrh we've tried, but probably most similar to Commiphora Mukul and Commiphore Wightii with a sweet, syrupy aroma with a hint of spice. We find this scent highly nuanced and keeps you wanting to enjoy the symphony of aromatic notes.

For those that have not yet tried these other Myrrh resins, one could liken Aksha Myrrh of the Commiphora Ornifolia tree to Kua Myrrh (Commiphora Kua) from Socotra Island Yemen, however the scent profile is slightly different, while very enticing in its own way.

Aksha Myrrh (Commiphora Ornifolia) is very sticky, which could be one reason why it's only collected in small quantities and is reportedly used by locals mainly for medicinal purposes to aid in digestion.

We love the aroma of this resin, particularly on our Ceramic Tea Light Incense Burner and Brass Adjustable Tea Light Burner because the resin melts very smoothly.

On a Charcoal Incense Burner a smaller piece goes a long way and the aroma wafts through the air beautifully.
