All About Jasmine and the Benefits of Jasmine Aromatherapy

What is Jasmine?

Jasmine is a delicate white flower treasured for centuries in places like Egypt, China, and India — often described as sweet, romantic, and intoxicating. Its fragrance is so iconic that it’s even part of famous perfumes like Chanel No. 5.

While its beautiful aroma has made it a favorite in perfumery, jasmine is also prized in aromatherapy for the mood-lifting atmosphere it’s said to create. At European Spa Source, we capture that essence in select products — from our Luxury Jasmine Scented Candle to our Jasmine ShowerSpa Mist™ and Aroma Go Travel Roll-On in Jasmine — so you can enjoy this timeless scent at home, in the spa, or even on the go.

Jasmine’s aroma has been cherished for centuries, not just for its beauty, but for the way it’s said to support emotional well-being and enhance self-care. Whether you prefer to light a candle, mist your shower, or keep a roll-on spray in your bag, there’s a jasmine experience waiting for you. Explore our full jasmine collection here.
