What other people think
'Melissa is frequently adulterated: Lemon Grass, Lemon or Lemon Verbena being mixed with, or substituted for the genuine oil. True Melissa is rare and costly. I am often asked why this is so, given that the plant is as prolific as a weed. The answer is that the plant has an unusually high proportion of water in its make-up with only a very small amount of the oily essence. So, like other costly oils, it takes a huge amount of plant material to produce a very, very small amount of essential oil.' - an excerpt from Aromatherapy an A - Z by Patricia Davis.
'The name means bee in Greek and the smell does attract these insects. Melissa has a beautifully fragrant, lemony scent; hence it's other name "Lemon Balm". It is helpful for allergies and is a gentle tonic.' - an excerpt from Aromatherapy A Guide For Home Use. by Christine Westwood.
'Nervous Tension - add Marjoram Essential Oil 10ml , Orange Essential Oil 10ml and Melissa to a Light Bulb Ring or a Aroma Stone (Electric Fragrancer) .' - an excerpt from Aromatherapy Simply For You by Marion Del Gaudio Mak.
