Exotic-Essential-Oils; A Message from Candice in India


Exotic-Essential-Oils - A Special Note from Candice;

Dear Readers,

I would like to start by thanking every one for their kind e-mails, support and queries while we are creating our new exotic-essential-oils and vibrational essence line. My husband Charles and I have enjoyed the organic process of exploration and creation very much, and the personal growth involved in this process.

We have selected our first batch of essential oils to be sold as single notes. We found a treasure in a local Bangalore family. This family's focus is on using native Indian plants from the south, they are in process of converting and certifying all of their farming practices to be organic. They personally over-see the whole process from, tilling the soil, planting the seeds, tending of the plants to harvest and distillation. In fact The oldest daughter of the Krishna family Chandra Lekha is training in the art of perfume, and will be an active part of her family's growth in this business. We look forward to growing with them as well.

The exotic-essential-oils we will be offering from this house are:

Bursera, this essential oil is referred to as "Indian Lavender" here, in that it has many of the same chemical constituents as true lavender. The scent however is less sharp and herbaceous, and it has a high rich fatty note that fades to a green floral with a soft fruit dry out, just lovely.

Betal Leaf, many of you may have enjoyed this leaf in its whole fresh form as a digestive aid after a meal in India. The essential oil form produces a rich liquid that is a yellowish-brown, that is a distinctly smoky base note, simply wonderful.

Curry Leaf, is a pale yellow middle note that is a rich, complex, spicy-green herbal that runs the gamut from sweet to spicy to a bitter note dry out, a fascinating scent.

Davana, is a reddish yellow oil that is unique in that it capable of making a scent original to the individual. This makes it difficult to describe in that it will not smell the same on any two individuals. As I have used it on my self and on my husband, I found it ranged between - a medium note that is a masculine floral scent to a woodsy, balsamic odour, truly divine.

Artemisia Annua, this pale clear oil smells as beautiful as its name sounds. This is one of my favorite scents, it is delicate but rich with fruity floral fatty notes ~ exquisite!

Tagetes, this oil is a reddish-amber color that has a wild, sweet, fruity almost citrus-like scent, that is a middle note, that is intoxicating.

Cardamom, most people will be familiar with the rich, round, complexly sweet and spicy scent of this oil, and oh it is heaven! This oil is a pale to golden color. Delicious!

Ginger Grass, This pale oil is a medium note with a sharp green scent, with a black pepper and lemon undertone, very fresh!

When we are ready to release this line of exotic-essential-oils, we will offer in-depth information of the metaphysical and physical properties of each exotic-essential-oil and vibrational essence.

We are getting ready to go to Bandipur, BR Hills and Nagarhole to make vibrational essences during this up coming week, I will send out up-dates and information of the sites, animals and places we select, when we are back by a computer again. One vibrational essence I feel very moved to create is because of a very impactive dream I had before I left for India, in which a male orange Tiger came to me. So I feel strongly that this is an essence I would like to bring through. The Tiger energy is very strong here, and we have been fortunate to be able to spot and sit with-in the energy of several Bengal Tigers tigers in Bannerghatta. Hopefully we will find their energy strongly in Nagarhole, as I would like to "distill" the essence of a complex variety of tiger energy.

Until next time.

Cheers,

Miss Candice
