The butterfly lily, also known as White ginger lily, is an exotic plant native to its natural habitat in the Himalayas of Nepal and India. This species of butterfly flower is popular for its beauty and fragrant flowers that are intoxicatingly perfumed. It is most commonly found in the muscles and waterways of lowland areas of tropical Central and South America. Outside its native range, it is cultivated mainly as an ornamental plant. Its white flowers carry a strong scent that is reminiscent of jasmine and citrus.
Its flowers and rhizomes are used in local medicinal preparations as a cure for fever, asthma, bronzitis, or even in the treatment of malaria. The rhizomes are also used as a flavoring agent in rice and other dishes. The scent of this butterfly plant is also used in perfumery, also for making soaps and oils. In a variety of cosmetic products, its extract enhances the scent of other ingredients, while adding a fresh and exotic feeling. The extract of the wreath butterfly is also valued in the production of premium fragrances for its intense and lasting scent that is able to last all day. In the world of perfume, it is thus becoming a non-negligible ingredient.
