Arabian jasmine is also known as Jasmine Sambac. It is a
vine with fragrant little white flowers and shiny dark green
leaves. The flowers are about one inch across and grown in
cluster of three to twelve among clusters of 3 leaves, the
flowers will fade to pink as they age. They will bloom through
the summer or continuously in a warm climate. The flower will
bloom late in the evening and will produce a fruit of small
black berries. The plant will grow six to ten feet high outdoors
but can also be grown indoors and will be approximately thirty
six inches if grown in a pot.
Jasmine sambac is the national flower of the Philippines.
In Hawaii they are used in leis, and in China they are used
to flavor green tea. It is widely grown in the tropics as
an ornamental plant for its strong scented flower, and used
in many religious ceremonies. The people of the Philippines
believe it will cure headaches and in Indonesia it is a symbol
of purity, eternal love and nobility and beauty of a girl.
The absolute is extracted from the flower by a solvent extraction
method, as the process of steam distillation can destroy its
delicate flower and the scent. It is best if the oil is diluted
it works well with Jojoba, sandalwood, ylang ylang; Bergamot,
Frankincense, Geranium, Lemongrass, Orange, Rose and other
aphrodisiac oils. Try making soap with Jasmine Sambac, but
be aware that it does need to be mixed with other essential
oils as it will not blend well on its own in the process of
making the soap.
Jasmine Sambac is known as the lover’s body oil, because
of its sweet intoxicating scent. Its aroma is a musky and
masculine, floral scent. Just like other Jasmines Sambac is
used for anti-depression; sedative, muscle pain, and an aphrodisiac.
It should not be taken internally in the oil form, and recommended
not to use if pregnant. In labor it will help with the contractions,
after birth it will help with the scaring of stretch marks.
Of course whenever using any products on your skin, always
do a small patch test.
Jasmine Sambac Absolute is now available in smaller packing too.
