The benefits of olfactology
Smelling a fragrance allows you to appreciate the richness of the plant-based olfactory world which surrounds us as a connoisseur would, and it also reinforces the link with our memory and our emotions. The olfactory dispersion of a mixture of essential oils produces an ambience of well-being while rebalancing the psycho-emotional sphere which can be upset or destabilised by our everyday lives which provoke feelings such as stress, fatigue, fear, distress and lack of concentration…
The immense world of the plant kingdom offers us the possibility of selecting the essential oils which are most suited for the objectives being sought. Via olfaction, biochemical properties tackle the psycho-emotional sphere (we find the biochemical features of each essential oil in numerous writings and literature already published).

The essential oil molecules are deposited on the olfactory mucous membrane and stimulate the nerve cells. This contact with neuroreceptors generates a nerve impulse, which heads for the bulbar nerve centres and then to the different areas of the brain, particularly the limbic system. These olfactory centres which are interconnected with the neuro-endocrine system, produce instinctive, emotional and voluntary reactions.
