Myrrh is a timeless scent and has been used for thousands of years in ceremonial rites.  A deep, woodsy scent with a hint of sweetness, Myrrh is a classic incense used at Yuletime or anytime.  It has cleansing and healing properties which is why it's burned in churches and other sacred sites to this day.  It was one of the original gifts presented to the baby Jesus in the story of Christmas. 8 gram box, approx. 8 - 10 sticks.
