What are botanical perfumes?
These are perfumes that have been created from aromatic plants since ancient times. Nowadays, they are composed of essential oils and other fragrant plant extracts (absolutes, tinctures, concretes, isolates).
Botanical perfumes are more than just a scent. They are the living energy of plants, which enriches our everyday lives. Each essential oil, each natural plant molecule carries the experience of the plant in its biofield: the warmth of the sun, the breeze of the wind, the touch of raindrops, the vital force of the Earth, the energy of the Moon, the Sun, and the cosmos.
By smelling the scents of plants, we connect with the very essence of Nature. Practically any plant, and aromatic herbs in particular, can gently influence our mood and emotions, calm restless thoughts, and awaken vitality and creative spark. Our bodies and souls recognize and resonate with the vibrations of Nature hidden in plant molecules, so botanical scents and perfumes become an invisible link between humans and Nature, the world of plants. These are scents that help us remember that we ourselves are part of Nature.
Botanical perfumes are a gift from plants that subtly change and harmonize our inner state and relationship with the environment.
Why is the NATURALNESS of air fresheners, perfumes, and home fragrances important?
The pleasure of smelling and inhaling is only part of the overall physiological effect. After all, all the fragrant molecules inhaled with the air enter our lungs, bloodstream and brain, as well as those of our children and pets. And we breathe constantly, cannot stop...
Our health and that of our children greatly depends on what we breathe in. In cities, we are already inevitably exposed to high levels of air pollution, and whether we like it or not, we breathe in a lot of dust (i.e., particulate matter), soot, microplastics, nitrogen, sulfur oxides, VOCs (benzene, toluene, xylene, formaldehyde), which cause cancer, cardiovascular and lung diseases, and allergies. Therefore, we must strive to maintain the healthiest possible environment indoors and be critical when choosing anything that has a scent, from cleaning products to perfumes.
Natural plant essential oils not only smell pleasant. They bring us molecules from nature where they are sorely lacking and help to create an anti-stress, calming, biologically favorable environment. This is very important for city dwellers who live and work in a synthetic concrete environment, and even more so for the sensitive developing psyche of children.
Occasional use of synthetic perfumes may not cause harm to a healthy adult, but if we want to breathe every day, it is safer to be surrounded by natural plant molecules and breathe air that is healthy. The scent created by plants creates more favorable conditions for us to live, rest, and work to the fullest; it does not cause neurosis or other serious health problems, but on the contrary, can even have an aromatherapeutic effect.
So, if one wants to use perfume, better go for natural botanical perfumes made from aromatic plants essential oils and other fragrant plant extracts (absolutes, tinctures, concretes, isolates).
