Omumbiri Essential Oil

Originating from the harsh desert landscapes of Namibia in sun-soaked southwestern Africa, Commiphora wildii, a stubby plant with reddish-purple branches, secretes droplets of aromatic amber resin in the heat of summer. This versatile myrrh resin, cherished for centuries by the Namibian population, was traditionally combined with fat and ochre to produce a balm. This balm, admired for its pleasant fragrance and skin-nourishing benefits, was typically applied to the skin.

With a truly unique fragrance, this wild Myrrh imparts a warm, lemon-balsamic scent and releases sesquiterpenes known for their skin-calming effects, such as hydration, softening, toning, and purifying.

The essential oil distilled from this exquisite natural treasure enriches the lives of the local population. The women of the Ovahimba tribe, experts in Kunene wild Myrrh botany and shrub management, gain community, ancestral wisdom, and steady income from the resin they collect.

The distillation of this resin is managed by a community-owned trust that reinvests the earnings back into the local region. From harvesting to distribution, all the community supply chains are positively affected by the production of our Omumbiri Essential Oil.
