 Rosemary is a typical member of the Mediterranean coastal 'macchia' vegetation. It is an aromatic shrub with an intense and pleasant smell. In the antiquity rosemary was associated with Aphrodite, the goddess of love. Although the only member of the genus Rosmarinus, it is found in numerous chemotypes and cultivars.

 Rosemary oil is obtained by steam distillation of the flowering tops, mainly in Spain, Morocco and Tunisia. One of the first perfumes made by distillation was based on rosemary oil, namely the Hungarian queen's-water, 'Aqua Reginae Hungariae'. It is told that the Hungarian Queen Isabella, suffering heavily from rheumatism, used this perfume with beneficial results. She became young and beautiful again, and the King of Poland offered to marry her.
