Not only is Jasmine a popular feminine name, but jasmine in the form of floral scent aromatherapy oil also perks people's interest as being seductive and calming.
Jasmine's small, white flowers grow on a vinelike evergreen shrub. They are intensely fragrant and found in many excellent perfumes.
The name, jasmine, means "heavenly felicity", and is probably native to Iran. Jasmine is also known as both the "mistress of the night" and "moonlight of the grove" because its blooms peak during the night sky. In fact, jasmine flowers are often harvested at night because that is when they produce the most oils.
As far as jasmine oil's applications in aromatherapy, quite a bit of research has been done. Toho University School of Medicine in Tokyo, Japan, indicated that jasmine stimulates brain waves and enhances mental alertness. Using jasmine helped computer operators reduce their number of mistakes by 33%.
Why does jasmine work? Jasmine sedates the nervous system, helping tense nerves, headaches, depression, and insomnia. It can take an edge off P.M.S. and menopause. In addition, it has a strong history of being an aphrodisiac.
Jasmine's scent is rich and warm, with a sweet, fruity undertone. People often describe it as an exotic scent that calms, soothes, and heals.
