This essential oil is often considered fairly new in the Aromatherapy world but in fact, I fell in love with this oil back when I worked in the perfume industry in the 80s. This was very well established botanical in use as far back in the early 1950s. Davana essential oil was used by luxurious perfumeries around the world to enhance fragrances to achieve tea-like notes or rich sweet liquor tobacco masculine notes. Mostly, it’s used in eastern and ambrée perfumes, chypres, and fougères, for example, are often blended with Davana where fruity, tea-like notes are desired.
Traditionally, healers have long used the herb for all manner of women’s reproductive issues, from helping to support regulate menses to easing menopausal concerns. Davana is used to treat uterine and ovarian cysts that help fertility and promote positive outcomes. Often used to treat coughs and colds and seasonal allergies can also be used in an inhaler to clear lung congestion and quiet the mind to sleep better. Used for so many ailments cannot list it all here.
Davana smells the same to everyone while in the bottle, but it really takes on a different aroma of its own depending on who is wearing it. It really transforms the aura of the individual and those around experiencing the aroma. A medicinal herb, as well as a beautifully fragrant plant from flower to root in one plant, is a rare treasure.
In the middle east, the plant does grow but it is not as fragrant as the southeastern Indian variety in my opinion. Some Sanskrit language texts says that Sandalwood and Davana were traded with the Middle East and Israel possibly through King Solomon which might account for why it does grow in Israel but not in great abundance to make essential oil and any Herbalist forgers who recognize the plant will snatch it up quickly when found growing wild.
We really are blessed to have found our small distilling partner for this essential oil because they are making it intended for herbal medicine and fragrance only. We feel extremely grateful to have these artisan producers of this amazing essential oil.
