 powder that smells like hay, is Lawsonia inermis, commonly known as henna. The leaves of the henna plant have a red-orange dye molecule: lawsone, a naphthaquinone compound. Henna will stain your hair red-orange; but this stain is translucent and will combine with your natural color. Black henna, a green powder that smells like frozen peas, is neither black nor henna. It is indigo, Indigofera tinctoria. (Vaidya, 2000; Wallis, 2001; Trease and Evans, 1983; Bhattacharjee,2003)." \\

+"Parts used: Powdered leaves (Hennae folium)... Henna leaf is a traditional medicine in India, Arabia and North Africa and is used medicinally mainly to treat wounds, sores and skin infections. It is gargled for sore throad and taken internally in case of diarrhoea, dysentery, stomach ulcers and tapeworms.... The main compound of interest is lawsone, a 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphtoquinone that is released from glycosides in the fresh leaf through hydrolysis (1% lawsone in dry leaf powder). Also of importance are tannins (up to 10%), other naphtoquinone derivatives, coumarins, flavanoids, phenolic acids, sterols and xanthones, all of which may possibly contribute to the medicinal properties... the astringent properties are ascribed to the tannins. Like other naphtoquinones, lawsone is a strong oxidant and can interact with various cellular components, especially with proteins. This wuld explain its antibacterial, antifungal, anti-amoebic and anthelmintic properties." \\

+"The volatile constituents of yellow and red Lawsonia inermis L. (henna) flowers were analyzed by capillary GC and GC/MS following isolation by solvent extraction. The total yield of volatiles isolated was higher from the yellow flowers which also differed markedly from the red flowers in volatile composition, the former giving greater proportions of β-ionone (48.6% vs 2.5%) and its derivatives, while the latter producing larger fractions of 2-phenylethanol (11.5% vs 5.8%), benzyl alcohol and C6 alcohols and aldehydes." \\

+"In fact, it is important to evaluate the flowers at their right stage of maturity to be at the source of what can often be perceived over a distance of 20m as a most enjoyable harmony of all the ionones, with β-ionone and dihydro-β-ionone as the main responsible agents, together with linalool, the two isomers of theaspirane, and a small amount of methyl cis-(Z)-jasmonate. The premature flowers emit a scent much richer in (Z)-hex-3-enyl acetate, (Z)-hex-3-enol, and (E)-ocimene, while over-mature flowers are no longer attractively scented, and are also much greener with a shade of a spermatic note." \\
