Uses

This attar is instant perfume for any pulse point. Diffuse. Add a few drops to baths. Eases feelings and envelopes cozy comforts. Sensual love potion. Heavenly in hair. Deliciously decadent to dab a drop under each armpit as a deodorant. A lovely libido booster. This beautifully complete attar is perfect as a on its own, or the base-note beginning to an epic accord. To simply scent hair, down there, or dab a drop for deodorant. Anoint soles of feet and take in the sweet, sensuality of it all. Bath in this beauty to ease swirling thoughts and tensions.

If the scent of Jasmine Sambac’s sepals could be squeezed with earth beams of moonshine and made into an essential mead you would make Motia Attar, an ancient, elegant anoint fit for Arabian kings and bottled as scented psalms for Sheba.

“A tangle of star jasmine spilled across the path and Alice knelt to pluck a sprig, holding it beneath her nose and breathing in the scent of captured sunshine.”
~Kate Morton, The Lake House

“There is a season to this ripening,
the way sap of tree rises to fulfill
fruit of the topmost branch,
or the motion of jasmine
climbing trellises to show off
a single blossom to a new moon tide.”
~Marjorie Evasco, Ochre Tones

“Observe
the jasmine lightness
of the moon.”
~William Carlos Williams

“In India the jasmine plant is called “queen of the night” or “moonshine in the garden.” This plant with blossoms the color of moonlight generously emits, especially at night, a magical fragrance. Like the waters of a sweet river, this fragrance penetrates the deepest layers of our soul, opening the doors to our emotions.”
~Susanne Fischer-Rizzi, Complete Aromatherapy Handbook

“He smelled fantastic. That warm summery sandalwood scent of his mixed with the jasmine. That’s got to be what heaven smells like.”
~Colleen Houck, Tiger’s Curse
