Of Fragrant Oils and Essence

The afternoon gave the group a chance to visit a perfumery which makes their own aromatic oils and essence. The lady who did the explantion was very knowledgeable and explained about how the famous brands perfumes were made with a mixture of certain essence and alcohol contents.
I found it very informative as I hardly deal with perfume. Prior to this trip I didn't even own a single perfume. Now I have four bottles .... three aromatic oils and an essence sitting on my side table.

Presenting them here .... aromatic oils of Narwastoo, Sweet Almond and Menth and the Lotus fragrance essence. The Narwastoo oil is the oil which Mary Magdalene poured on Jesus's feet and then she wiped them with her hair. This oil when rubbed on the skin gives a warm sensation and this helps to elevate rheumatism pains. The Sweet Almond oil is good for moisturising dry hair and skin. The Menth oil smells of mint and it helps to reduce stuffy nose problems when you inhale a mixture of warm water with a drop of the oil.
The Lotus essence is good for reducing stress. It was said that the Lotus essence fragrance was noticed when the famous Egyptian King Tutenkhamen's tomb was discovered.
