The favourite plants of humans have always been the fragranced spices, flowers and fruits. They have been collected and dried or their oils pressed in order to save their effective ingredients for the longest possible time. These were then eaten or used to cure the body or as aphrodisiacs or only for their anti-stress effects. If we want to bring beauty, serenity, peace and harmony to our hectic life, to introducing fragranced oils, herbs and tisanes is a good place to start.
