100% ginger lily over vetiver (Hedychium coronarium + Vetiveria zizanioides) essential oil.

“Your perfume, its vetiver fragrance, your own delicate smell: both foreign. Your subtly sinuous thought processes are so foreign to my own meanderings, and yet clearer and sharper. Of course you are not a foreigner, but how I value this foreignness in you. Perhaps keeping that foreign element is the secret.”
~ Hervé Le Tellier

“[Ginger lily is] an ornamental, rhizomatous herb occurring throughout the moist parts of India. An essential oil, obtained from rhizomes, is active against gram positive bacteria and fungi.”
~ Rashtra Vardhana, Floristic Plants of the World, Vol. 3

“Vetiver nourishes people who have cold feet or have their heads in the clouds. When we lose contact with the ground beneath us, with reality, we pay the price of a weakened immune system.
When in touch with the earth, we breathe fresh air, enjoy the magic of an open fire, and feel the wind blow through our hair.”
~ Susanne Fischer-Rizzi, The Complete Aromatherapy Handbook
