Recent research in the Journal of Biological Chemistry finds that the scent of jasmine is better than Valium at calming and soothing. But who needs Rehab?
Mandy Aftel's, (aka the 'Queen of Green') the founder of Aftelier Perfumes debuts Candide, a natural fragrance inspired by Voltaire's ever optimistic character that contains a high percentage of jasmine, the fragrant world's botanical alternative to chemical sedatives. "The sunny color comes from the orange shades of jasmine, pink grapefruit, and blood orange essences. The smell of jasmine is uplifting and cheerful in a sexy way – the perfect blend of high and low, sweet and dirty," Mandy states in her press release.
Voltaire wrote in his Candide that "troubles are just the shadows in a beautiful picture. Who better to review Aftelier's new perfume than our very own Candide…Ida Meister. Coming soon.
I don't know about you, but I feel better already.
