About

Jasmine Sambac, also known as Arabian jasmine, is a beloved flowering plant renowned as one of the world's most masculine flowery oils. Its delicate white blossoms yield an intensely floral aroma that transcends gender boundaries, evoking feelings of happiness and joy. It's often used in perfumery, where they add a touch of sophistication and allure to fragrances. Jasmine Sambac has the remarkable ability to dispel emotional blocks, and serves as a potent tool for emotional healing and inner balance. Beyond its aromatic qualities, Jasmine Sambac holds cultural significance in various traditions, symbolising purity, love, and spirituality.

Historical Snippets

The history of Jasmine Sambac spans millennia, with its origins tracing back to ancient civilisations of Southeast Asia. Records indicate its cultivation as early as the 1st century CE in India, where it was revered for its beauty and fragrance. By the 9th century, Jasmine Sambac had gained prominence in Islamic gardens, celebrated for its symbolic significance and aromatic allure. Its cultivation spread to China during the Song Dynasty (960-1279), where it became a staple in traditional medicine and perfumery. Throughout the ages, Jasmine Sambac continued to captivate cultures across Asia, with references in literature, art, and religious ceremonies. Its introduction to Europe occurred during the 16th century through trade routes established by Portuguese and Spanish explorers. Since then, Jasmine Sambac has enchanted the Western world, leaving an indelible mark on perfumery and aromatherapy practices!
