Description

Gold has been known and highly valued since prehistoric times. It may have been the first metal used by humans and was valued for ornamentation and rituals. Egyptian hieroglyphs from as early as 2600 BC describe gold and it is also mentioned several times in the Old Testament. Gold is included with the gifts of the magi in the first chapters of Matthew in the New Testament The south-east corner of the Black Sea was famed for its gold. Exploitation is said to date from the time of Midas, and gold was important in the establishment of what is probably the world's earliest coinage in Lydia between 643 and 630 BC.
The Mali Empire in Africa was famed throughout the old world for its large amounts of gold. Mansa Musa, ruler of the empire (1312 - 1337) became famous throughout the old world for his great hajj to Mecca in 1324. On the way to Mecca, when he passed through Cairo in July of 1324, he was reportedly accompanied by a caravan that included thousands of people and nearly a hundred camels, giving away so much gold that it took over a decade for the economy across North Africa to recover, due to the rapid inflation that it initiated.
Although the price of some platinum group metals can be much higher, gold has long been considered the most desirable of precious metals, and its value has been used as the standard for many currencies (known as the gold standard) in history. Gold has been used as a symbol for purity, value, royalty, and particularly roles that combine these properties.
The fragrance of Gold is designed to capture all its ancient history and its power and richness. The scent is dominant and strong with undertones of rich perfume.
“Simmering Granules” are a natural salt based product with added fragrance for use in burners/diffusers. Simmering Granules are safe, clean and simple to use. No water is required in the well of the burner, just a couple of teaspoons of simmering granules, which will gradually release their scent over several hours. When the fragrance has evaporated, the granules residue can be easily disposed of. If you have never encountered “simmering granules “ before, we are proud to introduce to you our best-selling product!
