Inanna - Mesopotamian Incense

Relaxing and seductive, this incense creates an enchanting atmosphere of love. It is a wonderful reminder to celebrate our mortality through the finite pleasures of our bodily senses.

For the Sumerians, eroticism and sexuality were sacred as they constituted the origin of creation. Inanna, the Queen of Heaven, was the Sumerian goddess of beauty, sensuality, physical love and feminine fertility. She was worshipped by great kings, and she accompanied them in battle in the form of the planet Venus. This incense alludes to the spirit of Inanna.

 Galbanum, also called “the mother resin”, was indigenous to Mesopotamia; it relieves tension and relaxes.

 Storax is similarly calming and known as a great aid in dealing with insomnia. Feminine and seductive, storax was also burned on festive occasions in light of its dignified fragrance. It enhances the sweet and flowery ingredients of the mix and preserves the rest.

 Labdanum reconnects you with your body and brings warmth and sensuality.

 Mastic has a radiant energy and reinforces the other ingredients of the incense.

 Myrrh, considered by many peoples a divine fragrance, releases the energy of the earth and of the divine feminine, helping to connect with it.
