Science Behind Essential Oils

There’s a reason Myrrh Oil has been coveted for thousands of years—from sacred temples in Egypt to the apothecaries of early herbalists. Far from being just another essential oil, Myrrh (Commiphora myrrha) is a resin-born powerhouse that smells like history itself: warm, spicy, and grounding in a way citrus and florals can’t touch. Today, it’s as relevant for your skincare shelf as it once was for ancient altars.

So, what makes Myrrh Essential Oil worth a spot in your routine—and how do you actually use it?

Your immune system faces a lot every day, from seasonal threats to invisible germs. That’s why we created two powerhouse blends with very different personalities. Protect is bold and warming, built on spicy classics like clove and cinnamon. Defend is fresher and softer, layering citrus and lavender into its antimicrobial mix. Both are designed to help you breathe cleaner air, keep your home purified, and support your body’s natural defenses—without relying on synthetic chemicals.

Here’s how they work, what the science says about their ingredients, and how to choose the one that fits your routine.
