The formulation of Egyptian Musk has been mentioned in ancient Egyptian texts. Ancient Egyptians have described it as being earthy, woody, and naturally fragrant. It is an amalgamation of oils from the finest flowers and plants such as the following: Myrrh – a natural resin extracted from the Commiphora tree species Cedarwood – an oil extracted from pine and cypress trees Rose petals – oils from different rose variants Frankincense – resin derived from the Boswellia tree species Patchouli – a base note from the mint and deadnettle plant Ambrette seeds – an animal musk substitute
