Dragons Blood Resin Incense

Dragon's Blood creates a strong herbal and spicy fragrance when burnt. It's traditionally used in Indian ceremonies to get rid of negative energies and spirits and is regarded as having cleansing properties. 

As well as for burning, the resin has gained other uses throughout history. In the 18th century Italian violinmakers are said to have used it as a source of varnish for their instruments, and the Greeks and Romans regarded it as having medicinal properties. The warriors in ancient China used to carry it with them when going into battle. If they were wounded they used the resin to stop their wounds bleeding so much.

This dramatic sounding resin isn't quite what the name suggests! Dragon's Blood resin generally comes from the fruits of climbing palm trees, such as Daemonorops Draco, in areas of tropical Asia. The fruit of the trees is covered in scales and the bright red shiny resin seeps out between the scales - which looks a bit like blood coming out from a cut (or a scaly dragon's hide). As it seeps out, it's traditionally collected, cleansed and then melted down to form a hard chunk of resin.
