【气味】辛，温，无毒。
【主治】去臭，除鬼气（藏器）。辟恶，去邪鬼尸注心气
（出自《本草拾遗》）
【释名】木蜜（出自《内典》）、没香（出自《纲目》）。
【集解】陈藏器说：蜜香产于交州。树木高大，节理如同沉香。《法华经》的注解说：木蜜，就是香蜜。树形像槐树但具有香气，砍伐后经过五、六年，才取其香。《异物志》说：它的叶子像椿树。树木生长千年，将其砍倒放置，四、五年后再去查看，已经腐败，只有中间节段坚硬贞固的部分才是香。李时珍说：产于南海诸山中。种植五、六年就有香。《交州记》说：树形与沉香没有不同。李时珍按语：据《魏王花木志》记载：木蜜号称千岁树，根部很大，砍伐后四、五年，取不腐烂的部分作为香。看这些记载，那么陈藏器所说的生长千年才砍伐的说法，大概是错误的讹传。段成式《酉阳杂俎》说：没树出产于波斯国、拂林国，当地人称为阿KT。树长一丈多，皮呈青白色，叶似槐树但较长，花像橘花但较大。果实黑色，大小如山茱萸，味道酸甜可食用。《广州志》说：肇庆新兴县出产多香木，俗名叫蜜香。能辟除恶气，杀灭鬼精。《晋书》说：太康五年，大秦国进贡蜜香树皮纸，颜色微褐，纹理像鱼子，极香且坚韧。看这几方面的说法，则蜜香也是沉香的一类，所以形状和功用两者相似。《南越志》说：交州人称呼沉香为蜜香。《交州志》说：蜜香类似沉香。《岭表录异》说：栈香的树皮纸像鱼子。尤其可以互相印证。杨慎《丹铅录》说蜜树是蜜蒙花树，这是错误的。另外枳椇木也名叫木蜜，不知道是否也是同类？详见果部。
【气味】辛味，温性，无毒。
(From *Bencao Shiyi* [Supplement to Materia Medica])
[Names] Mumì (Wood Honey), cited in *Neidian* [Inner Canon]; Moxiang, cited in *Gangmu*.
[Collected Explanations] Chen Zangqi stated: Mixiang grows in Jiaozhou. It is a large tree with nodes resembling Chenxiang [Agarwood]. The commentary on the *Lotus Sutra* states: "Mumì" is fragrant honey. The tree resembles a locust tree but has fragrance; after felling it, one waits five or six years before harvesting its resin. *Yiwuzhi* [Record of Strange Things] notes: Its leaves resemble those of the Chinese Toon tree. The tree lives for a thousand years; once cut down and laid flat, after four or five years, upon inspection, the wood has rotted away, leaving only the solid, firm sections in the middle as the fragrant material. Li Shizhen commented: It grows in the mountains of the South Sea region. Cultivated trees produce fragrance within five or six years. *Jiaozhou Ji* [Records of Jiaozhou] states: The tree's appearance is indistinguishable from Agarwood. Li Shizhen added: According to *Wei Wang Huamu Zhi* [Flower and Tree Records by King Wei], "Mumì" is known as the "Thousand-Year Tree," with a very large root system. After felling, one waits four or five years to harvest the non-rotted parts as fragrance. Based on this, Chen Zangqi’s claim that the tree must be a thousand years old before cutting appears to be an error. Duan Chengshi’s *Youyang Zazu* [Miscellaneous Morsels from Youyang] states: The "Mo tree" originates from Persia and Fulin [Byzantine Empire/Arab lands], where locals call it "A KT." The tree grows over ten feet tall, with bluish-white bark, leaves longer than those of the locust tree, and flowers larger than orange blossoms. The fruit is black, sized like Cornus officinalis [Cornelian Cherry], and is sweet and sour, edible. *Guangzhou Zhi* [Local Gazetteer of Guangzhou] reports: Duoxiangmu [Polyosma] is produced in Xinxing County, Zhaoqing, commonly known as Mixiang. It repels evil odors and destroys demonic essences. *Jin Shu* [Book of Jin] records: In the fifth year of Taikang, Daqin [Roman Empire] presented paper made from Mixiang bark, which was slightly brownish, textured like fish roe, extremely fragrant, and tough. Considering these accounts, Mixiang is a type of Chenxiang [Agarwood]; thus, their shapes and functions are similar. *Nanyue Zhi* [Records of Southern Yue] states: People of Jiaozhou refer to Chenxiang as Mixiang. *Jiaozhou Zhi* [Local Gazetteer of Jiaozhou] notes: Mixiang resembles Chenxiang. *Lingbiao Luyi* [Strange Records from Beyond the Mountains] mentions: The bark paper of Zhanxiang [Stacked Agarwood] resembles fish roe. These sources corroborate each other. Yang Shen’s *Danqian Lu* [Records of Red Lead] claims the Mixiang tree is the Meliosma tree, which is incorrect. Additionally, the Zhi Ju tree [Armenian Quince] is also named Mumì; it is unknown if it belongs to the same category. See the Fruit Section for details.
