Ethereal Nature Gardenia Absolute ess.oil 10ml - Gardenia jasminoides essential oil

Gardenia jasminoides, the flower with its distinctive aroma, is an angiosperm, a pomelo plant with rich, shiny foliage and large, white flowers. It comes from South Africa and is grown in Greece as one of the most popular ornamental plants, thriving mainly in coastal areas. Gardenia's essential oil is extracted from the flowers of the plant and emits a warm, rich and sweet fragrance in a balanced fragrance that reminds of a summer garden.

Recent studies about genipin, a key component of the plant, prove something that most probably ignore. Gardenia, apart from an ornamental plant with a wonderful scent, is a powerful medicinal plant. It is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and anti-hypertensive drug, as well as in wound healing, limiting bleeding and helping to heal wound healing faster. In conventional western medicine, the plant has been shown to be effective in reducing inflammation and exhibiting anti-angiogenic properties.

The aroma of Gardenia is well known in aromatherapy for its excellent effect on the nervous system. It acts soothing, offering relief from the symptoms of anxiety and depression.
