AN ANCESTRAL FLOWER WITH 1001 VIRTUES!
The use of the nigella is part of the Egyptian tradition. Cleopatra and Nefertiti already knew, at the time, the virtues that his oil could bring. Even today, small black seeds are among the culinary habits
many citizens in Egypt.
A fine connoisseur of products for natural beauty, Néfertiti was an eager user of a vegetable oil with multiple properties and also called the oil of the pharaohs since a vial has been found in the tomb of Tutankhamon: Nigelle oil.

or discouragement. "
