Perfumed oil of Mary Magdalene's Spikenard, inspired by the precious essences of Sacred Scripture and handcrafted by the nuns of the Monastery of Santa Maria della Neve.
This essential oil recalls the Gospel gesture of Mary Magdalene, who anointed Jesus' feet with spikenard perfume, a sign of love, devotion, and adoration. A floral fragrance with a sweet, velvety character, intense and meaningful, capable of evoking contemplation and spirituality.
"Then Mary took three hundred grams of pure spikenard perfume, very precious, anointed the feet of Jesus with it… and the whole house was filled with the aroma of that perfume"(Jn 12:3)
Spikenard oil is obtained from the roots of the plant that grows in the high mountains of the Himalayan regions and has a distinctive, very woody fragrance. After careful research, it is recreated by the Dominican nuns of the Monastery of Santa Maria della Neve as a blend of essential oils and authentic floral essences.
Spikenard flowers are rich in symbolic meaning associated with the gift of love, a freely given gesture that fills the surrounding environment with fragrance. It is a scent deeply connected to friendship and true, sincere love.
