A cousin of the healing Myrrh Oil we have always offered, this sweet Myrrh is most likely the Myrrh spoken of in the Song of Solomon. Unlike our astringent and healing Myrrh, this has a sweeter, softer, and longer lasting aroma, very different from the sharp freshness of Myrrh Oil. It has been a component of incense and perfumes since Biblical times. Some sources state that it has a drying action and thus would be effective against excessive mucous in the lungs. Hence it could be recommended in cases of bronchitis, colds, sore throats, and coughs. From a respiratory standpoint it would have just the opposite effect of our Inula graveolens, which loosens a tight dry cough. The Opoponax should help dry up a really “soupy” cough. Primarily, though, I would use this sweet base note in blending for perfume. One friend says it reminds her aromatically, of our Oud. At first I couldn’t see the similarities, but in the drydown, the resemblance is there. BLENDS WITH: Orange, Lemon, and other Citrus Oils, Frankincense, Neroli, Patchouli, and Sandalwood. WARNING: Possible sensitizer. Those sensitized to Peru Balsam should avoid use on the skin. Also, a photosensitizer, avoid exposure to ultraviolet light when wearing Opopanax. SHELF LIFE: Approximately 3 to 4 years after you open the bottle. Storing in the dark, refrigerated, and decanting half full bottles into smaller, full bottles will extend shelf life.

AUTOMATIC OIL REVIEW
More evidence needed for this report
What the evidence tells you
1 report connected; 1 directly linked by the supplier. Read the evidence before comparing chemistry.
1 source document archived
The downloaded source document is preserved with its content fingerprint, so later changes do not overwrite the evidence. Archiving alone does not establish its report type or quantitative validity.
Report linked from the product page
The supplier connects this product to the report. Confirm the batch on the bottle before applying these figures to a purchase.
Original analytical report status needs confirmation
These source documents are saved, but their status as original laboratory reports is unconfirmed or they are publisher summaries. They remain outside historical anomaly conclusions.
Chemical extraction needs review
Automatically extracted figures are visible for inspection. They are excluded from historical anomaly conclusions until the extraction is reviewed.
Comparison context is incomplete
Missing or unconfirmed: plant part, origin, analysis method, batch, exact analysis date. Unknown values are not assumed to match known values.
Numerical comparison is not supported for this report
The source describes the analysis as qualitative. Its listed figures remain visible, but are excluded from numerical historical anomaly conclusions.
Repeated constituent identity needs checking
More than one extracted row identifies the same constituent. Its percentage is withheld from the comparison until the source rows are resolved.
Source extraction has review notes
The source describes a qualitative GC/MS analysis; these figures are not validated mass fractions. The source includes reproduction restrictions; the archived original remains private. A source date requires review against the original document. Additional source extraction notes require review against the original document.
Not enough comparable history to assess differences
A range requires at least three earlier, reviewed original reports with the same botanical, chemotype, origin, plant part, extraction, analysis method, percentage basis and storage context. Missing and trace values are never replaced with zero.
