Gerard said of Myrrh' the marvelous effects that it worked in new and green wounds were here too long to set down...' Myrrh oil, distilled from the resin, has been used since ancient Greek times to heal wounds.

Mmmm. Myrrh. I love myrrh, but a little of it goes quite a long way.
This 3% dilution is a great way of making sure that you're not over-myrrhing things - something that I sometimes have a tendency to do.
Mix it with the sandalwood and frankincense dilutions, and you'd have the classic Trinity, already diluted down for your anointing convenience, and at a really terrific price.

Not having any other previous reviews to base my judgement on this dilution, I was a bit wary of its scent being a 3% strength...
It may not be as strong as one might expect with a full strength Myrrh EO, but I find this dilution to be the perfect amount of scent given its aromatic nature.
This Myrrh 3% is one of the most deep and mysterious of all plant resins. It blends beautifully with roses as there are some roses with the scent of myrrh (sorry, I don't know which ones)

I adore the 3% dilutions. They are much stronger than I had anticipated and reasonably priced. A great way to include otherwise unaffordable scents in my formulations.
I would love to see a larger variety offered in the future.
