Native to the Mediterranean regions, sweet marjoram is characterised by its small white or pink flowers, protected by bracts reminiscent of shells. This distinctive member of the oregano family does not contain phenols, making it unique in its kind. Its essential oil emanates a herbaceous and spicy odor, and it is sometimes used as a condiment, enriching various culinary preparations.
Historically, it was used to treat digestive and respiratory disorders in various medicinal traditions. Additionally, its reputed “warming” and “positive” powers position it as an ally for those seeking to balance mood and revitalize the spirit.
