From Ancient Aromatherapy to Modern Pocket Wellness: The Story Behind Breevio Aromas
Joseph ShelleyIn a world that moves faster than ever, the need for simple, natural ways to restore balance has never been greater. At Breevio, our mission is to bring centuries of global herbal wisdom into the modern age — reimagined through our expertly crafted aromatherapy pots.
Ancient Roots: The Global Origins of Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy — the use of natural plant extracts and essential oils to support wellbeing — has been woven into human history for thousands of years. Long before the term existed, cultures around the world were harnessing the power of scent and botanicals for balance, clarity, and calm.
In Ancient Egypt, fragrant oils were used in both spiritual ceremonies and medicine. Frankincense, myrrh, and cedarwood were prized for their purifying and restorative aromas. Egyptians believed that inhaling certain resins could elevate consciousness and calm the mind.
In China and East Asia, herbal medicine evolved into one of the world’s most sophisticated wellness systems. Texts dating back over 2,000 years describe the use of aromatic herbs such as cassia twig, polygoni multiflori caulis, and licorice to support circulation, energy flow, and balance between body and mind.
In India, Ayurveda — the ancient science of life — placed essential oils and herbal steam therapy at the heart of its healing philosophy. Herbs like eucalyptus, peppermint, and rosemary were valued for their energising, cleansing properties that promote clear breathing and mental focus.
Across the Mediterranean, jasmine, rosemary, and hawthorn were widely used for emotional harmony and heart health. The Greeks and Romans infused oils into baths, balms, and perfumes to soothe stress and enhance vitality.
From Indigenous Australian eucalyptus leaves burned for purification to Middle Eastern borneol and menthol balms, the story of aromatherapy is a shared human tradition — one that connects cultures through scent, ritual, and wellbeing.
Our Thai Inspiration: From Ya Dom to Breevio
While aromatherapy spans the globe, Breevio’s foundation lies in the remarkable heritage of Thai compound herbal inhalers, also known as Ya Dom. For generations, people across Thailand have carried these small, powerful herbal blends as natural pocket wellness tools — used for focus, clarity, energy, and relief from motion sickness or fatigue.
At Breevio, we were deeply inspired by this tradition. We took the concept of the Thai herbal inhaler — a natural, aromatic blend of herbs and essential oils — and refined it through modern formulation techniques to create a new generation of portable aromatherapy pots.
Each Breevio pot is a reimagined take on that heritage: the same on-the-go convenience, but with a modern design, longer-lasting scent, and carefully balanced natural ingredients designed for everyday wellness rituals.
