JUST A DROP OF DAVANA...

  • Has a sweet, exotic floral aroma
  • Traditionally used by Ayurvedic healers
  • Promotes the appearance of radiant, glowing skin when applied topically
  • Heightens the senses when used during meditation and intent of thoughts and words

Davana has a distinct aroma that is somewhat sweet and fruity, but it develops differently depending on the chemistry of the individual applying it. It is a very popular oil in perfumery, but it is much more than a pleasant scent. Davana can be helpful for supporting healthy blood sugar levels, promoting even skin tone, and releasing stored negative emotions.

BACKGROUND
Native to southern India, the davana plant is a member of the daisy family. It was traditionally used by Ayurvedic healers to balance the body and spirit. This holistic approach to balancing health and wellness is thousands of years old and is still practiced today. Davana essential oil is steam distilled from both the flowers and leaves of the plant and has a sweet, exotic aroma that is often used in high-end fragrances and perfumes.
