Rose
What can be more romantic than a rose, especially if it is red? The
essential oil from red roses is a strong aphrodisiac. It is said that Cleopatra used to take bath with milk and rose petals.
Jasmine
The
queen of the night in India. This
wonderful fragrance has proven to have
sensual effects in humans. The
Fragrance and Flavor Association
(based in New Jersey, USA) has found
that it stimulates our senses without
any negative side effects.
Jasmine essential oil has been used as an aphrodisiac for hundreds of years in India. Women in India use it in their hair at night so that their husbands will be drawn to them to
make love. When elephants need some help to reproduce, it is said that the owners put jasmine oil on them to excite them. The fragrance alone, when it comes from good quality pure oils, is exquisite. Altered or artificial versions do not have the same aroma and effect.
