Commiphora gileadensis

''Commiphora gileadensis'', the Arabian balsam tree is a shrub species in the genus ''Commiphora'' growing in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, southern Oman, and in southeast Egypt where it may have been introduced.〔(Ville de Geneve - CJB - Base de données des plantes d'Afrique (French) )〕 Other common names for the plant include balm of Gilead and Mecca myrrh,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=USDA GRIN Taxonomy )〕 but this is due to historical confusion between several plants and the historically important expensive perfumes and drugs obtained from them. True balm of Gilead was very rare, and appears to have been produced from the unrelated tree ''Pistacia lentiscus''.〔
The plant was renowned for the expensive perfume that was thought to be produced from it, as well as for exceptional medicinal properties that were attributed to its sap, wood, bark, and seeds.
The bark of the balsam tree is cut to cause the sap to flow out. This soon hardens, and has a sweet smell that quickly evaporates. The hardened resinous gum is chewed, is said to taste either like a lemon or like pine resin, and it is also burned as incense.〔
