Gold Living Fragrance ^Sale

Aromatherapy • Natural Perfume • Flower & Gem Essences

This living fragrance blends Rose Absolute, Myrrh Essential Oil, and Frankincense Essential Oil—a timeless aromatic triad long associated with heart-centered uplift, emotional grounding, and spiritual refinement. Rose offers softness and emotional openness, myrrh provides depth and protective steadiness, and frankincense brings clarity, presence, and quiet strength. Together, they create a contemplative yet luminous scent designed to support emotional balance, inner composure, and a sense of reverent calm.

In Arabian societies of Late Antiquity, perfume was not merely aesthetic but medicinal. From as early as 3000 BCE, frankincense and myrrh formed the backbone of aromatic medicine, deeply embedded in healing practices across Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Arabia. Rose later emerged as a central therapeutic scent in Persian, Greco-Roman, and early Islamic medical traditions. These aromatics were valued for their ability to calm the heart, sharpen the senses, protect the body, and restore equilibrium between mind, body, and spirit. Together, they represent a continuous and enduring legacy of aromatic healing across West Asia and North Africa. Additionally, A late antique text recounts Magi from the East bringing gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh to baby Yeshua (Jesus).

Suggested Use: Mist on or around the skin up to four times daily, or more often as desired. Reapply throughout the day to refresh the aroma and support ongoing mood and energetic balance.

Backstory: I am an indigenous Arab from Ahwaz, a region with a very significant and longstanding Arab historical presence. 

Mothers in Ahwaz had a distinctive remedy for fear. When a child became frightened, they would quickly take a piece of gold jewelry, preferably as pure as possible, and place it in a glass of water. They would have the child drink the water to ease the panic. The remedy was administered as close as possible to the frightening incident. Gold was present in every household and traditionally kept by women, serving many purposes, including calming fear and anxiety. I grew up drinking gold water when frightened and can still vividly recall its taste on my tongue. This practice inspired the creation of the Gold remedy.

I have often wondered about the origins of this tradition. I later learned of “The Bowl of Fright”, (aka The Mesopotamian Magic Bowl) in which water is poured into a metal bowl, often gold or copper, sometimes inscribed with sacred text, and then consumed following sudden fear or shock. This practice is associated with Eastern Arab communities and traces back to ancient Mesopotamia, where ritual bowls were used for healing and protection. Over time, these bowls were inscribed with verses from the Quran, transforming the ritual into a spiritual remedy for fear. It is possible that this tradition is the origin of the Ahwazi Gold Water practice.
