Dragon's blood is sharp, deep, fiery, and powerful. It has been used widely in magick and medicine for centuries. In Western magick is is used primarily as an incense ingredient for power, potency, protection, exorcism, love, money, did I forget anything? Yes, it is becoming rare and high global demand on these several species of slow-growing palm trees makes the conservation of Dragon's Blood a prime concern for the ethical practitioner. Just like the sap derived from other tree sap source incense resin, Dragon's Blood comes from an incision in the bark of the tree. Dracena species are replacing the Daemonorops draco which is becoming rare. A small pinch of Dragon's blood is added to any other formulation to give it extra potency.
