Spikenard is a deep dark oil both in color and depth; an aromatic
rhizome. The botanical name has its roots in the Hindu word “jatamansi” which
means: lock of hair. Its use goes back in several cultures and religions. Medicinally,
it is part of the Ayurveda, and is considered to calm the nerves and promote
awareness and strengthen the mind.
Spikenard is a perennial herb of the valerian family
native to the Himalayan region around Nepal and Bhutan. Also called Indian root
or wild licorice, spikenard is a very warm and wet herb that lifts the spirits
and clears the airways. The balsamifarus smell is an immediate indicator that
it helps the lungs. It is anti-inflammatory, astringent, anti-spasmodic, antiseptic,
expectorant, carminative, antibiotic, and anti-sclerotic.
Our wonderfully intense Spikenard Essential Oil is
used in skin and body care products to rejuvenate the skin. We offer Prima Fleur No. 390
from the cultivated root in Tibet, or Prima Fleur No. 392 from Nepal.

Native
to South India, Sri Lanka and Indonesia, vetiver is of the Poacceae family that includes grasses and plants characterized by
their elegant underground root systems. The two-year wait time for the roots to
mature, plus the arduous work of
planting, pulling up the roots by hand, and washing, cleaning, parsing, and
drying them before the steam distillation procedure can even begin is testament
to vetiver essential oil’s value. Our Vetiveria
zizanioides ~ Prima Fleur Vetiver Essential Oil [No. 218] ~ is from Java, where the plant
is called akar wangi, meaning “fragrant root.” Good quality, mature dried
Javanese vetiver root yields from 1.5 to 2% essential oil. Oils derived from
older roots have higher specific gravities and optical rotations than younger
roots and produce a richer and fuller quality of oil.
Adaptable
and sturdy, the vetiver plant is widely used to make fragrant blinds, shielding
the sun’s rays and infusing homes with earthy notes. Fans formed from the roots
and embellished with embroidery are dipped in water and wafted in front of the
face to provide blissful relief from Southern Asia’s heat. For more substantial
needs, the plant can be used as material to make thatched huts and floor mats.
Vetiver also provides excellent protection from soil erosion.
Yet
the true treasure of this tufted grass is the essential oil derived from the
root. In folklore, vetiver oil is used to increase financial abundance. In more
common ritual, inhaling the oil is said to protect the body from menacing
energies, including physical illness. Vetiver is employed in massage and
aromatherapy for its grounding influence, to calm the central nervous system of
one who feels “uprooted.” When used by a skilled practitioner, vetiver can be
prescribed to increase blood flow and reduce muscle pain. Vetiver essential oil
acts as a moisturizing humectant for dry, irritated skin and is found in
cosmetics, soaps, and natural perfumes as a fixative.
The
main constituents of vetiver essential oil are vetiverone (bitter earthiness),
vetiverol (sweet woody odor), and zizanol, an insect repellent. The oil blends
well with lemongrass, grapefruit, evergreens, frankincense, myrrh, rose, and sandalwood,
and is used primarily as a base note with tenacity and a richly distinctive
masculinity.

Coffee Butter is the cold pressed oil from roasted coffee
beans (Coffea arabica) with other
vegetable oils. Coffee Butter has an exceptionally smooth and elegant skin feel
and may be used in skin care preparations. The CO2 is a great addition to rich
perfumes and blends, especially mixed with smokey or floral odors.
You can use Prima Fleur Coffee Select [No. 342] to make a
nice solid perfume – it mixes well with vanilla, citrus and spicy notes like cardamom.
Or you can use coffee in an SPA blend as a fragrant astringent that is
stimulating. Coffee is said to fight wrinkles if you place it directly in skin
care products.

styling aids), as well as body and skin care (facial care, facial cleansing,
