⊹ FREQUENT QUESTIONS ⊹
We answer.
What is Dragon's Blood (Croton lechleri)?
Dragon's Blood is the deep red resin harvested from the wounded bark of the Croton lechleri tree, in the Amazonian forest of Peru. The Asháninka, Shipibo, Kichwa and Awajún peoples call it Sangre de Grado or Sangre de Drago and have used it for centuries both as a skin medicine and as a ceremonial seal of the energy field.
How do you use Dragon's Blood on the skin?
External use only. A drop on the skin, let it dry thirty seconds — the sap sets into a thin matte film that seals the area. That is the gesture the peoples of the Peruvian Amazon have kept: a seal, not a cure. Not for broken or infected skin, and not a substitute for care.
How do you use Dragon's Blood in ritual?
A single drop, traced with the fingertip in an intention of protection: on the third eye, at the wrists, or in a cross on the plexus. Particularly useful before a charged ceremony, the crossing of a heavy place, or a night when the dream announces itself vast. The same gesture that closes the skin closes the over-porous of the field.
Is Dragon's Blood edible?
Our bottle is for external use only — do not ingest. Some Amazonian traditions use it internally under strict traditional guidance, but this is not the intended use of this presentation.
Where does INFUSE's Dragon's Blood come from?
Resin wild-harvested in Peru during summer 2025, bottled in France in a 5 ml Miron bottle to preserve the vibration and protect the photosensitive compounds of the resin.
Why the Miron glass bottle for Dragon's Blood?
Miron glass blocks the visible light spectrum and lets only violet, UV and infrared rays through — preserving the structure of active compounds of the resin over time, particularly important for a living resin like Dragon's Blood.
What precautions with Dragon's Blood?
External use only, do not ingest. Avoid direct contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Test on a small area before extended use in case of sensitive skin or history of skin allergy.
What pairs well with Dragon's Blood in ritual?
Compatible with a prior smudge (Imphepho, Palo Santo) to cleanse the field before tracing. And with an Agua de Florida mist for the full ceremonial dimension — mist + anointing.
