Its scent is so neat and clean and tidy and soothing and pleasant - in short, reminiscent of grandma's linen closet. Lavender is indeed used in numerous household products, such as soaps and washing powders. But Grandma probably placed a little sachet stuffed with Lavender flowers between her linens, which not only lent them that special scent of floral freshness, but also kept the moths and bugs away. The very name 'Lavender' is descriptive of these age-old uses, which go back to Roman times. The Latin word 'lavare' from which 'Lavender' derives, simply means 'to wash'. Although Lavender is a Mediterranean herb and at home in the dry, hot climate of the Provence, it has also long been cultivated as a commercial crop in Britain. In southern Europe, Lavender flowers early and provides welcome spring nectar for busy bees. The resulting honey is sold as a precious delicacy. However, in France the deeply violet flowered French Lavender (L stoechas) is by far the most common species encountered in the wild. It has been used medicinally in France as well as in England until about the middle of the 18th century and was an important ingredient of the famous 'vinegar of the four thieves', which at the time was hailed as one of the most effective preventative remedies against the plague. Lavender also had the power to ward off other invisible demons and devils, and was burnt for protection at the summer solstice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTraditional\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe favourite oil of aromatherapists, Lavender is incredibly versatile and useful.

It is an excellent first aid remedy for burns and prevents scarring. It is also very effective for treating insect bites. Lavender is used to treat infections of the upper respiratory tract, though Lavender Spike is better suited for this purpose.

Its modern name is a corruption of its old name 'Clear Eye', which reveals its highly esteemed use as an eye remedy. The seeds were placed in water until they developed a mucilaginous coating. Thus prepared they were placed in the eye in order to 'catch' any stray particles of dust and thus clear the vision. Today, sometimes an infusion is used for the same purpose, but the seeds work better. It also had quite a reputation as a mind altering herb. In Britain in particular it was often used for brewing ale, imparting that extra punch, which apparently made it 'fit to please drunkards, who thereby, according to their several dispositions, become either dead drunk, or foolish drunk, or mad drunk.' This drunken stupor was followed by a mighty hangover and headache. In Germany it was mixed with Elderflowers to adulterate wine, which thereby gained a flavour not unlike Muscatel wine.

An incense recipe mentioned in the tales of the Arabian Nights reveals its reputation as a powerful aphrodisiac. As incense it also dispels evil spirits and cures the possessed, which is why it is associated with St. Anthony. In the Middle Ages, St. Anthony's fire was a common occurrence due to the contamination of grain with a hallucinogenic fungus.

Camphor is sometimes mixed into the Betel quid for its stimulating and aphrodisiac properties. However, whether Camphor acts as an aphrodisiac or an anaphrodisiac seems to be a matter of dosage. Islamic sects and certain Buddhist groups use the incense to 'cool off' any Venusian drives, while Tantric sects value it for its stimulating effect.

It is derived from a resin, which is not, as one might have thought, extracted from a tree, but rather from an herbaceous plant of the Carrot family that is native to Iraq and Iran. The whole plant exudes a milky substance, which hardens upon exposure to air. This resin has been used as incense and medicine since biblical times. The aroma of the essential oil is somewhat more refined than that of the resin from which it is distilled. While Frankincense was only used for sacred occasions, Galbanum and Myrrh could be burnt for domestic purposes as well.

The oldest documented use dates back to China in about 2000BC. In all likelihood it was there that Ginger was first cultivated. It is one of the most ubiquitous spices of Asian cuisine, but is equally valued as a medicine. The English name 'Ginger' seems to have derived from Sanskrit 'shringavera', which means 'antler shaped root'. Ginger is in fact a rhizome rather than a root, which proved very handy as it can be transported in a dormant state, ready to be planted even in our northern climes. However, it is not winter hardy and dies at the slightest hint of frost. Surprisingly, Ginger was much more commonly used in Britain and Europe in the past than it is today. In fact it was almost as common as salt and pepper. Grated Ginger was freely available in pubs to spice the ale. The idea was later marketed as a separate concoction, which became known as ginger ale. Sussex Farmers are said to have rubbed a smidgen of Ginger on their nags backsides to impart a little spunkiness. What is good for horses is good for men - Ginger has a longstanding reputation as an aphrodisiac and is sometime used in the treatment of impotency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTraditional\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGinger is very stimulating and warming.

Its cultivation quickly spread north to the warm areas of the United States. The trees are semi-hardy, though they die back in severe frost, they later miraculously recovering and spring back to life without apparent damage. Such 'reborn' trees are even capable of bearing fruit again. Claim to fame as the northernmost fruit bearing grapefruit tree goes to 'Aunt Queeny', which was grown from seed and survives - year round - outside, in a sheltered spot of the Chelsea Physicke's Garden in London. Grapefruit are primarily valued as a fruit that is very rich in vitamin C content and is said to have cancer protective properties. It also lowers the blood sugar and it is often promoted as a diet aid. The seed extract is strongly anti-biotic and anti-fungal and has become the number one natural preservative.

So far, non of the sustainably harvested oil has become available on the aromatherapy market. Ho leaf, distilled from the leaves of the same tree, is gradually beginning to replace Ho Wood oil in Aromatherapy, not because of the sustainability factor, but because its scent is even smoother, containing practically no camphor-like notes at all. Hon Sho is a vehemently defensive tree - the exudates from its roots (the source of camphor) kills worms and other micro-organisms of the soil, and the leaves that drift into the ocean can kill marine organisms, which is why some consider this oil an environmental hazard.

Despite its price tag Jasmine is among the best known and most popular essential oils. The cost however, is relative, considering the labour intensive process of production and the enormous amount of flowers required to obtain a single litre of oil: 1000kg, which equals about 8 million individually hand-picked flowers, are required to produce just 1kg of oil. Even so, it remains the most sought after oil of perfumers around the world. In India, the flowers of Jasmine sambac are regarded as sacred, symbolising innocence and purity of mind. Jasmine flower garlands adorn the temples and holy effigies or are offered to the Gods. At religious festivals the Gods themselves are thought to be present within the flowers.

Instead, they are quite happy to doggedly swim against the generically streamlined wave of their direct competitors and persist in doing their own thing the way it has always been done. Et voilà, they have created a unique market niche for themselves. Such is the case with Monsieur Moutte, a farmer of the Haute Provence, the rugged region nestled between the Mediterranean and the Alps, where fragrant waves of Lavender fields stretch to the horizon in every direction. This is the heartland of French perfumery, where most commercial French Lavender oil comes from. But what makes Monsieur Moutte's oil different is the fact that he refuses to standardise his operation the way everybody else does. Most Lavender farms propagate their plants by cuttings, thus creating fields of clones which genetically are exactly the same as their parent plants. Monsieur Moutte on the other hand cultivates the individuality of his herbs - each plant is derived from a different wild parent plant. This individuality transfers to his oil, which is nothing like the commercial Lavender oils - instead, it has character. His Lavender oil also benefits from the fact that his fields are located at a higher altitude than other fields in the region, which means that harvest occurs about two weeks later than that of other growers. Moutte Lavender oil reverberates with the wild and rugged ambiance of the Provencal mountains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTraditional\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe favourite oil of aromatherapists, Lavender is incredibly versatile and useful.Because of its balanced nature, agrees with just about anybody.

Its scent is so neat and clean and tidy and soothing and pleasant - in short, reminiscent of grandma's linen closet. Lavender is indeed used in numerous household products, such as soaps and washing powders. But Grandma probably placed a little sachet stuffed with Lavender flowers between her linens, which not only lent them that special scent of floral freshness, but also kept the moths and bugs away. The very name 'Lavender' is descriptive of these age-old uses, which go back to Roman times. The Latin word 'lavare' from which 'Lavender' derives, simply means 'to wash'. Although Lavender is a Mediterranean herb and at home in the dry, hot climate of the Provence, it has also long been cultivated as a commercial crop in Britain. In southern Europe, Lavender flowers early and provides welcome spring nectar for busy bees. The resulting honey is sold as a precious delicacy. However, in France the deeply violet flowered French Lavender (L stoechas) is by far the most common species encountered in the wild. It has been used medicinally in France as well as in England until about the middle of the 18th century and was an important ingredient of the famous 'vinegar of the four thieves', which at the time was hailed as one of the most effective preventative remedies against the plague.

The zesty aroma just bursts with vibrancy, tickling the soul like a beam of sunlight. The scent of Lemon oil instantly reminds us of sunny climes and spreads a little bit of Mediterranean ambiance. It is difficult to determine the exact origin of Lemon, so widespread has been his wanderings. It is believed to have originated in India or Southeast Asia, spreading at first to China, where it was cultivated for about 4000 years. From there it found its way to the Arab world, and eventually, to the Roman Empire. Northern Europeans probably first encountered them by the returning Crusaders. By the Middle Ages, Lemons were well known even in England. Yet, their true value as a life-saving anti-scorbutic remedy was not realised until the age of the great sea voyages, when it was discovered that sailors who had access to lemons did not fall prey to scurvy. Thus, it became a standard provision to carry Lemons on every long-term sea journey, which is why British sailors became known as 'limeys'. During the renaissance, the attractive citrus trees with their sweet-scented flowers became very popular with the aristocracy and it became fashionable to grow them far beyond their natural range. Special conservatories had to be built just to shelter the sensitive trees from the harsh northern European winters. Columbus introduced Lemons to the New World; he took some seeds and planted them in Hispaniola - which may well have been his best deed. Some scholars believe that Lemons might have been the 'Golden Apples of the Hesperides'. Others favour peaches - the final verdict on this question is still to be decided. Lemons, along with Myrtle, Willow and Palm, play a role in the Jewish festivities of the Tabernacle. In Jewish tradition Lemons symbolise the heart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTraditional\u003cbr\u003eLemon oil is antibacterial and due to its fresh scent, lends itself particularly well to diffusion in sick rooms, killing germs and simultaneously brightening the patient's spirit.

Though they became world famous as Key limes or Mexican limes their true home is the Malay archipelago from where they have migrated, taking advantage of passing Arab traders, who brought them back to the Mediterranean. However, the Mediterranean climate does not suit the lime that well and so, it never became widely cultivated there. Instead, it set its eyes on the New World, which it reached with the ships of the Spaniards and there, in the tropical islands of the Caribbean, it felt right at home. In Western countries they are now mostly appreciated for the distinct flavour they give to Key Lime pies and to various cocktails, such as 'Margaritas', which has earned them the nickname of 'Cocktail Lime'. Crafty chefs actually use it as a 'secret ingredient' in numerous dishes, adding a certain barely discernible 'twang' that excites the palate. Back in Southeast Asia, even their leaves are frequently used to as a spice. There, they also play an important role in folk medicine and magic. Malaysian witch doctors use limes for all manner of spells: to win someone's love, to cast the demons of disease to the winds, to protect against all manner of evil devils, to protect new born babies and their mothers during pregnancy and boys at their circumcision rites.

It was as though this plant spread a shield across the burn-scarred landscape, healing the fire damage and preventing the soil from further depletion.

In aromatherapy skin care products it is particularly useful in preparations for oily skin, acne and other inflammatory skin conditions.

Their crowns of pink-purplish flowers are a playground for butterflies. Marjoram is such a common herb on every kitchen shelf, so ubiquitous to our cuisines that we take it for granted and have long forgotten its healing virtues. Marjoram oil is perhaps one of the original oils of aromatherapy; even the ancients were well familiar with it. In Greek mythology it was sacred to the God Hymen, son of Aphrodite, a God of marital union. Wreaths of Marjoram were worn by the young couple on their wedding day. Some writers associate Marjoram with celibacy and claim that it acts as an anaphrodisiac, while others say the opposite. Fact is that Marjoram relaxes, so much so that one writer warns of its narcotic effect if used excessively. But it also stimulates blood flow if applied topically. It may be a matter of dosage that determines its effect. In the days when Absinth had cult status and was a legal 'drug', Marjoram was one of the additive herbs that went into the mix and before hops became the main brewing herb, Marjoram was also often used for brewing ale. The ladies of the day tended to appreciate it more for its scent than for its narcotic effect - or perhaps a bit of both. In Elizabethan times it was a popular strewing herb and was also used in stuffed herb sachets to perfume the air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTraditional\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarjoram is an excellent oil for topical treatment of tense muscles and joint pains.

Other writers admire its ability to strengthen the mind and memory. Melissa is a great oil for students as well as for old people whose memory begins to fade. It brings cheer to those who feel burdened. Lemon Balm is sacred to the Great Goddess and her honey bees, in fact, the name Melissa means 'bee' in Greek, and even in English Melissa is sometimes called 'bee balm'. Bee keepers rub their hives with the herb to ensure that their bees will always come back. Similarly, in times gone by, Melissa was used as a strewing herb to keep the home scented sweet and welcoming. Previously, only the herb was available to herbalist, but in recent years the essential oil has appeared on the market.

On the third, night the king, curious who his lover was, shone a light in her face. Shocked and reviled he grabbed for the sword to kill her but she ran away. Pregnant and unhappy to the core of her soul she wandered the earth for the term of her pregnancy. But before she gave birth she prayed to the Gods to turn her into a tree so she would neither offend the living nor the dead. Her wish was granted and she was transformed into a Myrrh tree. Her tears of sorrow and regret still keep flowing. Despite this sad story Myrrh was highly revered as incense and medicine throughout the ancient world. It is always mentioned for its power to bring on menstruation and expel old blood and the fruit of the womb, so perhaps this myth is a veiled hint regarding the use of Myrrh to expel the fruit of immoral unions. In Egypt, Myrrh was associated with the cult of the dead, being an important ingredient of the embalming mixture. It was also used as a sacrificial offering to the Gods.
