Gardenia (Kiele) Body Oil and Mist
Gardenia (jasminoides), commonly called Kiele in Hawai’i, is a stunningly aromatic relative of the coffee family. The climbing elevations of the northern coast of Maui island host some of the most beautiful gardenia varieties. This specific batch comes from the makers personal home gardens.
Our Kiele Gardenia is a seasonal, estate apothecary blend, offering. Enjoy Kiele as a body oil or mist yourself, your space or sacred altar, with the codes of Gardenia. Medicinal properties are commonly related to anti-inflammation and the aroma has been associated with a sense of well-being and pleasantry.
As a relative of the coffee family, Gardenia also has a very stimulating effect but does not incite overactivity or overwhelm. We have noticed how encouraging this botanical can be in attending to projects and interests, inducing a kind of eagerness and enjoyment.
For us, encouragement is a big energetic Gardenia incites. We often associate its power to that of a patient, but determined, mother who champions the deeds and interests of her children.
