HERB - Near and Far Eastern Aromas

[Warren & Meredith Harmon]

Greetings!

I remember reading somewhere that scented oils were used extensively in
any desert area, mainly because they didn't have enough water to bathe
in, and they needed a substitute.  There are even a few sketchy body oil
recipes in the Bible, so I think you can safely assume that they are
period for any desert culture.
