(text from the September 2021 newsletter, written by Michèle Larocque)
Cistus (Cistus ladanifer or Cistus ladaniferus) is a shrub from the regions of the western Mediterranean: Spain, Portugal, Sicily, Algeria and Morocco.
At maturity, it takes the form of a 2,5 m tall shrub with dark green sticky leaves, and large white flowers which open and wither in the space of a day. Its name originates from the Greek "kistè" which means "capsule", because of the shape of its fruit. The peculiarity of this plant is that it is covered with a very fragrant resin film called «labdanum» whose role is to prevent the plant from drying out.
Labdanum was used by Egyptians for its fragrance and its many virtues. Whether in the form of essential oil or hydrolat, the energy of Cistus works at the level of the plexus by bringing old concepts and conflicts to the surface so they can be released. It eases the mind in the case of lack of creativity, exaggerated perfectionism, feelings of isolation, or dependence and excessive attachment.
The use of cistus hydrosol in body care is similar to that of essential oil. Its anti-aging, soothing and astringent properties make it an ingredient of choice for mature, sensitive or irritation-prone skin care.
Words by Anny Schneider
The hydrosol of this small Mediterranean shrub with pretty ephemeral white flowers has slightly astringent or even hemostatic properties so it stops blood and flows of all kinds.
The hydrosol common gum cistus also helps to soften the rigidity typical of perfectionists too much of themselves and their fellows.
Origin
This organic cistus ladanifer hydrolat from Greece is obtained by steam distillation of leaves of the plant.
