Essential Oils
A true natural insecticide, this plant from subtropical regions grows in tall clumps of grass with long, tapering leaves. Its roots, which help to combat soil erosion, concentrate its precious aromatic molecules. Its essential oil is an essential base note in the development of the greatest perfumes. Amber in colour, it is characterised by woody, smoky and warm fragrances.
