Tales from Nature
Palmarosa has been known since ancient times, under the better-known name "Indian geranium": even at the time it made long journeys, as it was sent from the port of Bombay as a cosmetic and therapeutic plant to Constantinople and then to Bulgaria, where it was used to adulterate rose oil.
Even in our time it is used in perfumery, often in place of the more expensive rose essence, but also to isolate geraniol. From it is made Palmarosa Essential Oil known for its anti-inflammatory properties and effective against wrinkles, stress and nervousness. It is also known for its tonic, healing and soothing virtues.
