The Hours Collection

Named for the hours of daylight, this is a floral blending that includes the following aromatics: Violet, Bergamot and Lavender.

From Morocco, on the northern edge of the Sahara, medieval traders would bring this effusive emerald oil to the market or the Souk in sealed clay pots. Pressed from the fruit peel of a small citrus tree the light sensitive oil must be protected to ensure that BERGAMOT retain its full piquant potency. 

This purple-blue shrub was common to the shore lands of the Mediterranean and was in firm favor in both Ancient Greece and Rome. It was often used as an antiseptic or a purifier, or to scent bathing waters and its Roman name, “Lavare,” means to wash clean. We know it by the name LAVENDER.

The tiny five petal VIOLET is the most mentioned flower of classical Greek literature. Its fleeting season, from late February to early April, was eagerly anticipated, for this delicate flower offered both sweet subtle scent as well as therapeutic properties. Braided garlands were woven from the flowers and worn as a crown to ensure a restful and scented sleep.
