Wikipedia: "The term pomander refers to fragrance preparations with ingredients such as amber or musk ("musk") as well as the portable, usually almost spherical containers in which they were kept. Pomanders were used for medicinal purposes until the 17th century and were often also used as jewelry.....
....The origin of the European pomander lies in the Orient; this assumption is also supported by the fact that some pomanders were described as "à la façon de damaz". Their oriental predecessor was "sukk", a medicine made from the basic substance called "ramik". Recipes for ramik often mentioned dried fruits mixed with honey. were crushed in a mortar. The resulting mass was dried and stored in the form of plates, pastilles or balls. Together with various fragrances, the result was the Sukk. Instructions on how to make the Sukk come from Ibn Amran, who lived in the 9th century. Necklaces made of Sukk balls could not only be used for medicines, but could also be worn as necklaces.
