Description
Melissa officinalis, also known as lemon balm, received the name “Melissa” because of its sweet, fresh, citrus-like fragrance, which was known to attract bees (Melissa is Greek for “honey bee”). A highly sought after oil, Melissa has a wide range of benefits and uses. Melissa is used as a flavor in teas and ice cream and is sometimes used in fish dishes. Melissa has long been used to help create a relaxing, comforting environment. Diffusing Melissa at night can help initiate a restful sleep environment.
