Chameli Oil

Jasmine essential oil is known as the 'King of Oils'......in my opinion, a reputation well deserved! Strangely, although it is known as the 'king', it is very much a woman's oil........although, both men and woman can be very attracted by the sensational smell! With its wonderful soothing and sensual aroma, this has been a favourite oil for many for thousands of years.....the name Jasmine comes from the Persian word 'yasmin' which means "a gift from God". The Jasmine is a creeper with white or yellow flowers with an absolutely exquisite scent. It is often used (along with Rose) in the most expensive of perfumes. The health benefits of Jasmine Essential Oil can be attributed to its properties as an antidepressant, antiseptic, aphrodisiac, antispasmodic, cicatrisant, expectorant, galactogogue, emmenagogue, parturient, sedative and uterine substance. Jasmine Essential Oil is extracted from the flowers of Jasmine, and it has various scientific names including Jasminum Grandiflora (Royal Jasmine) and Jasminum Officinale (Common Jasmine). The oil is extracted mainly from the latter variety.
