Hand cream, 75 ml tube – Sweet Almond Oil

The etymological background of the word ‘almond’ comes from the Latin amandula, which means ‘divine gift, rare and precious asset’. There is an old Provencal saying: ‘sweet as an almond’.  Almonds grow on almond trees, flowering trees that were brought to Egypt by the Hebrews. The Greeks and Arabs then distributed almond trees throughout the Mediterranean peninsula.
