The Elixirs of Nostradamus: Nostradamus' Original Recipes for Elixirs, Scented Water, Beauty Potions and Sweetmeats Hardcover – January 1, 1995

This was a must have book for me!! I am a mad herbalist, and my curiosity was killing me as to what The Master Astronomer would have to say about herbs and perfumes.

good recipes. I've already made the cherry one!

A wonderful book summarizing the best of Nostradamus' recipes that the book says he wrote in a two-volume set originally. If you want to know medieval recipes for hygine and beauty, this is a good source for that knowledge.

It was just interesting.

Cool book. Missing 18th chapter becasue of "Moral, Christian, God Fearing reasons" is a major bummer. I would like to read just the 18th chapter alone on psychoactive plants and entheogens rather than recipes for preserved nuts and skin whiteners.
