Arabic Gum Golden Resin Incense

Arabic Gum Golden Resin Incense

This Gum Arabic resin has a beautiful clear golden rose color.

What does it smell like?

Gum Arabic has a mild fragrance described as light, slightly sweet, woody, resinous, or faintly fruity. Compared with frankincense, myrrh, copal, benzoin, and other resins, its scent is quite subtle. It is valued more for a gentle background smoke than for a powerful fragrance, and it is often blended with stronger resins. Because its aroma is so mild, it can be combined with frankincense, myrrh, sandalwood, or other botanicals rather than being used primarily for its own fragrance.

Traditional use

Gum Arabic is a traditional purification incense commonly associated with purification, protection, and cleansing.

Origin: Africa

How to use

For use as incense. Burn resin over charcoal tablets in a proper heat-resistant charcoal incense burner.
