Commiphora Wildii Myrrh "Omumbiri"

Commiphora Wildii Myrrh — “Omumbiri”

Sourced from the arid heartlands of Namibia, Commiphora wildii, known locally as Omumbiri, is a rare and sacred form of myrrh gathered traditionally by the Himba women of the Kunene region. This wild myrrh resin carries the spirit of desert wind, sun, and timeless ritual, exuding an aroma that is both sweetly balsamic and deeply earthy, with undertones of honey, smoke, and sacred warmth.

Unlike common myrrh, Omumbiri is harvested not by cutting the tree, but by gathering naturally exuded resin—a practice that honors both the land and the living plant. When burned, its smoke is soft yet powerful, filling the air with a grounding and purifying energy that calms the mind and opens the heart to reverence and reflection.
