Myrrh Scented Beeswax Candle – Air of Gold In Eastern Africa, an ancient tree bleeds resin so valuable that its price sometimes surpasses that of gold. Myrrh is pure luxury, an elite substance that produces an awe-inspiring scent. The Egypt of the Pharaohs revered myrrh and believed it had special powers that transcended life and after life. Its aroma has been breathed by Somali Sultans just back from trading expeditions, Egyptian princesses on their wedding days, and at the births of future kings. Qualitas has produced a candle which captures the earthy, hardy scent of myrrh – a candle worth its weight in gold.
