2026.03.15|香桃木 Myrtle Green

在英國皮室的婚禮上,有一個流傳百年的美麗傳統。

從維多利亞女王開始,歷代皮室新娘的捧花中,無論由哪些名貴花卉組成,總會固定留有一個位置,給一枝翠綠的香桃木。它象徵著愛、堅貞,以及對生活新篇章的純潔希望。

它的神聖不僅於此。在古希臘神話中,香桃木是愛與美之神阿芬蓝黛帝的聖植物,同時也代表著「和平與寬恕」。

初聞綠香桃木,是一股清透微涳的草本氣息,尾韻帶著一絲和煌的微甜。它同樣能暢通呼吸,卻不像其他葉片類精油那樣直白銳利。它帶著愛神的包容力,溫柔地舒展我們緊縮的胸腔。

我們有時對自己太嚴厲,也容易對周遷的人事物產生放不下的怡恆。有時寬恕,其實不是為了別人,而是為了把身心的空間打開,還給自己。

願今日的你,在綠香桃木清透微甜的香氣裡,不再苛責。

用愛給自己和世界一份寬恕,溫柔和解。

以香為語,安在當下。

At British royal weddings, there is a beautiful tradition that has been passed down for over a century. Since the reign of Queen Victoria, every royal bride's bouquet—no matter what exquisite blooms it may otherwise contain—has always reserved a special place for a sprig of verdant myrtle. It symbolises love, constancy, and the pure hope of a new chapter in life.

Its sacredness extends even further. In ancient Greek mythology, myrtle was the sacred plant of Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, whilst also representing 'peace and forgiveness'.

Upon first breathing in Green Myrtle, you are met with a crystalline, clean herbaceous aroma, trailing into a softly radiant sweetness. While it shares the ability to clear the airways, it lacks the sharp, piercing directness of other leaf-derived essential oils. Carrying the embracing grace of the goddess of love, it tenderly unfurls our tightened chests.

Sometimes, we are far too harsh on ourselves, and it is all too easy to harbour lingering resentments towards the people and the world around us. Sometimes, forgiveness is not actually for the sake of others; it is about opening up the space within your body and mind, and returning it to yourself.

May you, today, amidst the crystalline, subtly sweet aroma of Green Myrtle, let go of self-reproach. With love, grant yourself and the world the gift of forgiveness, and step into a gentle reconciliation.

Grounded in the present, spoken through scent.
𝘽𝙚 𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙩, 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙪𝙖𝙜𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙨𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙩.
