原料介绍｜甜马郁兰 （Marjoram）

▎精油简介

甜马郁兰长约30-80公分，温带多年生草本植物，具密生浅根性的根群，Origanum源自于希腊语，山之喜悦，在古希腊罗马时代被认为是象征幸福，神明化身的香草。被普遍用在日常食物中，经典的义式吃法是甜马郁兰加橄榄油香烤马铃薯。常会和野马郁兰(俗称牛至-酚类)混淆，因为其味道甜味带有辛辣苦味，所以称甜马以做为区分。而在地中海精油中，是最常见的舒眠配方。

甜马郁兰的花语是「沟通」，希腊神话中，甜马郁兰是主掌爱与美之女神-爱芙罗黛蒂Aphrodite所珍爱的香药草，因爱芙罗黛蒂的触碰，而开始有了香气。在罗马神话中则据传为专门贡祀爱神维纳斯之花，甜马郁兰代表着「荣誉、爱情与繁殖」。据说，甜马郁兰可以给新婚夫妻带来好运，希腊人与罗马人的传统婚礼中，将甜马郁兰编织成花冠给新人戴上，以祝福新人幸福与长久。
