2007 Archives: L’Eau de Jatamansi: Green Fragrance and Beauty Products
What is Jatamansi? It’s Sanskrit for Himalayan Nard, one of the rarest, most mysterious wild plants in the world. Cultivated almost 10,000 feet above sea level in the Himalayan alps, which are untainted by pollution or pesticides, Jatamansi yields a precious essential oil that has been used for centuries in Egypt, the Middle East, Italy and India, where Ayurvedic healers prize it for its ability to calm and relax, while leaving the mind clear.
We’re not recommending you throw away your Valium, but there’s something distinctly relaxing about L’Eau de Jatamansi, which is part of L’Artisan Parfumeur’s collection of spa products inspired by the exotic scent. L’Eau de Jatamansi boasts notes of clary sage and grapefruit, blended with rose, ylang-ylang, Australian sandalwood and Indian papyrus.
Certified organic and free of artificial perfumes, color, preservatives, synthetics, petroleum derivatives, paraffins or mineral oils, packed in recycled materials and never tested on animals, the Jatamansi Collection of Body Cream, Body Oil, Bath Milk and Eau de Toilette gives you ample opportunity to drench yourself in the warm, woody, sensual fragrance without even strapping on a pair of crampons.
