Greek incense from Mount Athos with the scent of “nard flowers” ​​refers to an incense mixture that contains the scent of nard flowers. Spikenard is a fragrant flowering plant native to the Himalayas and is highly valued for its aromatic properties.

In ancient times, nard was considered a precious and luxurious ingredient and was often used for anointing and perfuming. In the Bible, Nard is mentioned in the Gospel of John as the oil with which Mary anointed Jesus' feet. Its use in religious contexts and symbolism has continued through the centuries.

When used in incense blends, nard flowers impart a sweet and exotic aroma that is often described as rich, earthy and musky with floral undertones. This unique scent creates a feeling of sacredness and calm, making it a suitable choice for religious ceremonies, meditation and contemplative practices.
