Tales from Nature
Verbena Essential Oil is extracted from Lippia Citriodora, a plant in the Verbenaceae family. It has soothing and calming properties due to its cooling properties. It is a woody-stemmed plant that can reach two meters in height.
It has lanceolate leaves and small white flowers arranged in a spike shape. It is native to Latin America and is cultivated in all countries of the Mediterranean basin.
The Romans considered verbena a propitiatory plant and it was used for altar purification ceremonies and to accompany the activities of ambassadors who, before leaving, were touched with branches of this plant gathered in a sacred place on the Capitol to give them the powers of representation of the Roman state.
