  to be perfumed with incense  LJLA.  TgPs45:9 : מירא/מורא/ דכיא ואקסיל אלואון וקציעתא מתגמרין כל לבושייך  all your clothing are perfumed with pure myrrh, aloes, and cassia.  TgSong3:6 : מתגמרא מן קטורת בוסמין  perfumed by incense of spices.

"Completion" and "burning with coals or fire" are not disambiguated in the Syriac lexicographers. The lack of clear distinction also seems to color the use of the Gt stem in most of the examples of אתגמר in LJLA.
