Description

The essence of Sardinian myrtle is a botanical extract symbolizing hospitality, purity, and love. It is renowned for its pronounced balsamic, antiseptic, and astringent properties.

Symbolic and Mythological Significance

In Sardinia, myrtle is considered an iconic plant, symbolizing hospitality and the Mediterranean scrub.

• Greek and Roman Mythology: It was the sacred plant of Venus (or Aphrodite), goddess of love and beauty. Legend has it that the goddess covered herself with myrtle branches upon emerging from the sea. Thus, it represents marital joy and fertility.
• The Legend of Myrsine: Its name comes from the Greek maiden Myrsine, who was transformed by Athena into a shrub after being killed for winning a gymnastic competition against men.
• Historical Symbolism: Myrtle is associated with victory, glory, and fortune. In heraldry and ancient traditions, it was used to celebrate triumphs and joyous events.

Characteristics and Properties of the Essence

The essential oil of Sardinian myrtle is typically extracted through steam distillation of fresh leaves and flowers.

• Therapeutic Properties: A potent balsamic and expectorant, it helps clear mucus and respiratory passages in cases of coughs and colds. It also possesses antibacterial and antiseptic properties.
• Cosmetic Uses: Thanks to its astringent and sebum-normalizing properties, it is used in products for oily or impure skin and for toning tissues.
• Digestive Benefits: While pure essence requires caution, myrtle components have traditionally been used to stimulate appetite and aid digestion.
• Olfactory Profile: The aroma is described as fresh, balsamic, and slightly woody, with a minimal extraction yield that makes it a prized product.
