10 ml Jasmine Absolute Essential Oil

Jasmine is a delicate, evergreen climber native to China and India, with small, white, star-shaped flowers that are picked at night when their fragrance is most powerful. The resulting essential oil carries a sweet, exotic, and richly floral aroma — one prized for deeply relaxing the mind, lifting melancholy, and restoring a quiet sense of confidence.

This precious oil is said to soothe the nerves and inspire a feeling of confidence and optimism, while also restoring energy. It is traditionally believed to ease childbirth by strengthening contractions, and to help relieve impotence, frigidity, and premature ejaculation thanks to its soothing and calming properties. Jasmine essential oil also helps soothe coughs and laryngitis, and works beautifully in a massage blend to ease muscle pain, sprains, and stiff limbs. It tones dry, oily, or sensitive skin, increases elasticity, and is said to reduce stretch marks and scarring.

The jasmine has been considered a holy flower in India for hundreds of years and is still strung together today to make garlands for Hindu gods and goddesses. It is commonly worn in the hair by Indian women and remains one of the main flowers in wedding garlands. According to one myth, the sun god Surya rejected a princess's love, and she was so heartbroken that she took her own life. From her ashes scattered on the ground, a jasmine plant grew. Because the sun god had caused her such pain, the jasmine flower only blooms and releases its perfume at night.
