The history of iris essential oil, the beauty benefits of iris

France is a country of flowers, and its capital Paris has the reputation of the "Flower Capital." The iris is regarded as the national flower of the Kingdom of France. It is said that when Louis, Clovis, the king of the first dynasty of the Franks, was baptized, the gift God gave him was the golden lily. In French, the lily and the "flower of Louis" sound similar. The golden lily was seen as pure, and the shape of the golden lily resembles a white dove in flight, symbolizing the "Holy Spirit." Louis VI, King of France, made the golden lily his seal and coin design, and decorated the edge of his blue robe with it. He wore the blue robe to attend the ceremony of receiving the kingship, so the golden lily also became a symbol of royal power. In fact, the golden lily mentioned here is the iris. The French planted iris. The French also regarded the iris as the national flower, a symbol of light and freedom.
The Greeks often planted this flower in cemeteries, hoping that the souls of the dead could be entrusted to Iris to bring back to heaven, and this is also the origin of the flower meaning "messenger of love." In ancient Egypt, the iris represented "power" and "eloquence." The Israelites generally regarded the yellow iris as a symbol of "gold," so there was a custom of planting iris in cemeteries, hoping to bring wealth in the afterlife.
The iris flower is named because its petals are shaped like the tail of an iris bird, and its genus name Iris means "rainbow" in Greek, referring to the rich variety of flower colors, including blue, purple, yellow, white, red and other colors. The transliteration of its genus name is commonly known as "Alice." In Greek mythology, Alice is the goddess of the rainbow. She is the messenger between the gods and the mortal world, and her main task is to carry the souls of good people after death back to heaven via the rainbow bridge between heaven and earth.
