Opoponax (Sweet Myrrh) Absolute

Species: Commiphora erythraea Engler var. glabrescens Engler, fam. Burseraceae
Part: Resin
Method: Solvent Extraction
Class: Sesquiterpene
Perfumery Note: Base
Country: Kenya

This cousin of Myrrh has an exceptionally quality aroma, its warm, balsamic and sweet and reminds me of a bit of rum. Though not a "true" absolute, it is extracted with alcohol from a hydrocarbon solvent extracted resinoid. It is a very thick, sticky material and will require some heating to make mobile.

Caution: For external use only. Keep away from children & pets. Avoid eyes & mucous membranes. If pregnant, consult doctor. Highly concentrated - always dilute with a carrier oil when using on skin.
