Lavender, originally from the coastal areas of the Mediterranean, various parts of Europe, and the islands of Oceania, later became widely cultivated in the United Kingdom and Yugoslavia. Its elegant and graceful foliage and beautiful blue-purple flower spikes are enchanting. When in full bloom, it creates a misty and romantic atmosphere, accompanied by a subtle fragrance of woody sweetness that captivates and intoxicates.
In addition to its visual appeal, lavender is also favored for its medicinal properties. The use of lavender in treating ailments can be traced back to ancient Roman and Greek times. For several centuries, it has been primarily used in dried form or as essential oil in clinical and cosmetic industries abroad. The entire plant contains 1% to 3% essential oil, mainly used in aromatherapy and massage, offering benefits such as calming and sedative effects, antispasmodic properties, antibacterial activity, neuroprotective effects, and cholesterol reduction. Lavender can also be made into tea, providing various benefits such as cooling and refreshing effects, alleviating gastrointestinal bloating, preventing nausea and dizziness, and boosting immunity. It is even said to aid in voice recovery when consumed by individuals with hoarseness or loss of voice, earning it the title of "the best companion for office workers."
Lavender fragrance is well-known among women, and I also have a preference for it. Lavender essential oil and air fresheners with lavender scent are beloved choices. Just a few drops can immediately transform the entire space into a cozy and gentle ambiance.
Of course, one of the most well-known benefits of lavender is its use in beauty care, which women are particularly familiar with. Lavender has the effects of inhibiting bacteria, balancing sebum secretion, and soothing the skin. It is often used in facial cleansing products and can also be used for bathing.
Lavender is often associated with love. Lavender fields are among the preferred outdoor floral backgrounds for newlywed couples' photoshoots, thanks to a poignant legend.
In European tradition, lavender seems naturally intertwined with love. Numerous love stories and folk customs revolve around lavender. "Lavender Represents True Love" is one of the most representative lyrical poems from the Elizabethan era. The floral language of lavender is "waiting for love." Just like the TV series "Lavender" depicts, lavender signifies a subtle declaration of love, a firm commitment that can withstand hardships, and the promise of walking hand in hand with one's beloved.
In Provence, France, one of the birthplaces of lavender, there was a young girl who, one day, ventured alone into the cold mountains to pick flowers. There, she encountered a traveler who had come from afar but was injured. The girl was captivated by his elegant smile at first sight. She invited him to her home and took care of him until he recovered. During this time, their love blossomed and became inseparable. Not long after, the young traveler bid farewell to the girl, and the deeply in love girl insisted on accompanying him to his homeland filled with blooming roses. Just before the girl was about to leave, an old lady in the village gave her a bunch of lavender, instructing her to use it to test the sincerity of the young man. Legend had it that the fragrance of lavender could reveal impurities. As the traveler held her hand, preparing to embark on their journey, the girl threw the lavender hidden in her clothes onto the young man. Unexpectedly, a burst of purple smoke emanated from his body, and he disappeared, while the girl faintly heard the hearty laughter of the young man echoing in the valley. Not long after, the girl also vanished without a trace. Some believed that she, like the young man, transformed into smoke and disappeared in the valley, while others said that she followed the scent of lavender flowers in search of the young man...
Since then, the legendary story of lavender has been passed down. And because of this story, lavender is also considered one of the essential materials for warding off impurities and for use in incense.

※※ Another version of the legend provided by an enthusiastic reader on YouTube: It is said that lavender was originally yellow in color. At a market one day, a girl encountered a handsome young man and fell in love at first sight. The young man bought her a pot of yellow lavender. When the girl returned home holding the flowers, she yearned for the pot every day. Tears of longing fell into the pot, gradually turning the lavender purple. The girl planted the purple lavender in her garden, and everyone passing by admired it and started planting it as well. When the young man heard the news, he also came to ask for the seeds, only to discover that the original pot had transformed. From then on, the two remained together and never parted. The yellow lavender was gradually forgotten. ※※

我還是第一次遇到這種事,吃一塹長一智,今後要小心了。沒想到水星兄也有相應的經曆,如果枚存檔,真的很令人沮喪。以前發生過點擊發布文章卻突然消失的事,那時文學城瀏覽器出了問題。
