General - Saffron is known to be one of
the most expensive spices. This is because the stigmas of the plant are
handpicked to make the spice. Saffron oil has a very interesting odour. It has a
woody, spicy, hay like odour. Saffron Absolute also mixes very well with exotic
and unknown flowers such as frangipani, champaca, magnolia, gul hina (flower of
paradise), kewra, gardenia, jasmine sampac and auriculatum, and the
extraordinary nittymallige. In fact, the range of materials with which saffron
attar mixes well is vast: orris derivatives, such as the absolute or the
concrete; Burley tobacco absolute; osmanthus absolute, with which the attar
forms accords of extreme olfactory beauty possessing a fruitiness that is in the
heart of many of my successful creations; opoponax; irone; and the extraordinary
dihydro-irone, the coveted and heavenly "myrrhone.”

Uses -
Saffron has many medicinal uses A 2010 double-blind, placebo-controlled
study found saffron helped mild to moderate Alzheimer's
disease.Crocetin, an important carotenoid constituent of saffron, has
shown significant potential as an anti-tumor agent in animal models and
cell culture systems. Saffron inhibits DMBA-induced skin carcinoma in
mice when treated early. [29]
Both saffron stigma and petals are said to be helpful for
depression.Satiereal (Inoreal Ltd, Plerin, France), a novel extract of
saffron stigma, may reduce snacking and enhance satiety through its
suggested mood-improving effect, and thus contribute to weight loss. [31]
Saffron was found to be effective in relieving symptoms of PMS. Saffron,
crocins and
crocetin inhibit breast cancer cell proliferation Crocus sativus
(most saffron research refers to the stigmas but often this is not made
clear in research papers) inhibits histamine H1 receptors in animals,
suggesting a potential use in allergic disorders. Histamine is a
biological amine that plays an important role in allergic responses.
Saffron may have a protective effect on the heart.
