History of the pomander – The word pomander comes from the French term, pomme d’ambre, which means ‘apple of amber.’ A pomander in the Middle ages was essentially a small ball of perfume carried in a hinged metal case or aromatic spheres prepared with fruits and spices. They served a variety of purposes through history, including protection against illnesses, representing a religious keepsake, & to smell better. They were worn around the neck or placed in the home.
