Essential Oil Tip - Jasmine


If you've never smelled the essential oil of Jasmine, you are missing one of the most exquisite scents available. This scent is nicknamed the "queen of the night" and "moonlight of the grove."  In addition to its aphrodisiac qualities, Jasmine is known to be calming and sedative, good for depression, nervous exhaustion and stress. It is also a good oil for use in skin care, especially for those of a sensitive nature.

Jasmine absolute is an orange-brown, viscous liquid with an intensely rich, warm, floral scent and 'tea-like' undertone. It is an oil that brings a lightness and happy feeling to those who use it.

It is potent oil and a little goes a long way.

This substance isn't an actual essential oil but an "absolute extraction" from the flower. It is an "essence' and not an essential oil.  To acquire the intoxicating scent, the flowers must be picked a night to maximize the fragrance. The blossoms must be collected before sunrise or much of the fragrance will have evaporated. Also, the quality of the blossoms may be compromised if they are crushed.
