Dragon's Blood

The bright red resin from the sap of a tree, dragons blood is used as an incense, a dye and an herbal medicine. There are several different sources for this red resin, many of them from very different trees in different parts of the world. Dragons blood is also very popular among practitioners of neo-paganism and witchcraft, who use it in various rituals. Don't freak out, it won't shrink your head!

Originally, Stradivarius used one variety to stain and protect his violins.  A different variety is highly sought after for its amazing antioxidant properties.  This is the variety I covet.   

Its mysterious, alluring aroma is difficult to describe. With warming notes of amber, incense, Madagascar vanilla and patchouli, the Dragon's Blood Fragrance Oil is lightened up with layers of romantic notes such as rose, jasmine and lilac. Top notes are the colorful, light touches of blood orange and grapefruit.  If ever a fragrance made you want to go out and get a tattoo, this one is it.

Dragon's Blood soap will be available in my online shop once it has cured.  I hate waiting!
