When I wear Jasmine, I am so mesmerized by this scent. It is delicious and ever so exotic! The Jasmine we enjoy from Young Living is actually an “essence” not an essential oil. The flowers must be picked at night to maximize the fragrance.
Known in India as the”queen of the night”and “moonlight of the grove,” women have treasured it for centuries for its beautiful, aphrodisiac-like fragrance. According to Roberta Wilson, “In many religious traditions, the Jasmine flower symbolizes hope, happiness, and love.”
Interesting note: 1 pound of jasmine oil requires about 1000 pounds of jasmine or 3.6 million fresh picked blossoms. The blossoms must be collected before sunrise, or much of the fragrance will have evaporated. The quality of the blossoms can also be compromised if they are squashed. A single pound of pure jasmine oil can cost from $1200-$4500. In contrast, synthetic Jasmine oils can be obtained for $3.50 per pound, but the synthetic oils obviously do not possess the same therapeutic qualities as pure Jasmine oil.
Thank you Young Living and our Seed to Seal Commitment to Purity. Have you tried the sensual power of Jasmine?
