Origin & Lore
Sexual Energy oil is a named condition oil in the folk-magick tradition, made to stir desire and add spark between lovers. It is used on candles and the body, and in workings meant to wake up a passionate relationship.
Damiana liqueur from Mexico is sold in a bottle shaped like a woman, said to be an ancient goddess, and the herb inside has long been prized as a love herb.
Lust and passion formulas were standard in hoodoo catalogues of the 20th century, under names such as Fire of Love and Come to Me. They draw on much older European traditions of love philtres and herbs said to warm the blood.
Did You Know?
Damiana, Turnera diffusa, is a small shrub of Mexico and Central America, and its use as a love herb was noted by European writers as early as the 17th century.
