The concept of incense or aroma can be combined with context to be understood as
meaning "frankincense."
Generally the sign for ointment is palm down but in this sentence in which it is
being co-articulated (signed with) the sign for incense we are choosing to sign
"myrrh" using an upright and palm back version.
The concept of "bring" is being inflected by signing it as "bring to you" since
the general idea is that the items are being brought as gifts.
Are there other ways to sign this phrase? Yes, certainly. This is simply "a" way
that works fairly well for the situations in which the phrase will typically be
used.

The sign for gold likely originated from people pointing to their earlobe (as in
an ear-ring) and then signing yellow - as in a gold earring.
