Djeka leaves
Djeka leaves are traditionally used in West Africa by women seeking better well-being in terms of intimate hygiene, during menstruation and in the postpartum period.
They are appreciated for their fruity and delicate taste when infused, as well as for their soothing and astringent properties.
Bonus: they are traditionally known to provide a “first-time” sensation during intimate relations.
