Why Frankincense & Myrrh is perfect for Christmas

We all know the Bible story about the Three Wise Men bringing Baby Jesus gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Matthew II tells us that the wise men journeyed from the East in search of the Christ child. They asked of King Herod where they can find Him, saying, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him” (Matthew 2:2). Upon finding the baby Jesus, “they bowed down and worshipped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold and of incense and of myrrh” (Matthew 2:11).

Why our Frankincense & Myrrh will be your Christmas memory this year

This Christmas narrative has been passed down to us through the generations, with particular significance to our childhood, in which we were taught the tale through family and education. The majority of us will have vivid memories of participating in school Nativities, centring around the gift-giving to the newborn Christ.

These deep-rooted connections mean that our Frankincense & Myrrh range has remained relevant and meaningful to households, enhancing the tradition and spirit of the season.

We have have been making some of the finest smelling toiletries since 1978 and the popularity of our Frankincense and Myrrh naturally rises during the winter months. This fragrance is often described as a cold-weather fragrance that will warm you up.
