Understanding Vanilla Magic
A warming, stimulating scent, vanilla has been associated with the qualities of passion, pleasure, and indulgence since the time of the Aztecs.
Used by the Aztecs for centuries, vanilla quickly became popular in Europe when it was brought back from Mexico by the Spanish. Vanilla is a member of the orchid family, and is also known as Aztec Orchid. The Aztecs associated it with love, and in Europe vanilla soon developed a reputation as a potent aphrodisiac, being worn behind the ears to attract lovers. Vanilla was thought to stimulate appetites in both women and men, and apparent proof of this was that the Aztec Emperor Moctezuma kept 300 wives.

Vanilla is a popular flavourings and scent, and can also be used in love spells.
