Those of you who will have the chance to come to Marrakech in the coming weeks will certainly leave, in your luggage or in your memories, with this sweet, sweet and subtle smell.<br \/>\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n\tSince ancient times, when orange blossom adorned the wreaths of newlyweds, the passion for this white flower and its sweet smell has never wavered.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHowever, it was not until the 19th century that orange blossom was harvested in the south of France. At this time of year, between April and May, they are delicately picked by hand before being sent to the still.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tIn Morocco the season starts earlier and lasts longer. This is how this country has long been one of the world&#39;s leading producers of this versatile flower.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOrange blossom is found in pastries. In aromatherapy too.&nbsp;Orange blossom is particularly renowned for its soothing properties, which help you fall asleep (see below the lecture by Dr. Belkamel, founder of Nectarome, one of the most beautiful Moroccan cosmetics brands that now exports all over the world).\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBut it is mainly in perfumery and cosmetics that the qualities of orange blossom are appreciated.\n<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t\tDear readers, there are now two options available to you: to enjoy the sweetness of this subtle fragrance, you can take a long breath of fresh air&#8230; by putting your nose on your soap.
