Maitresse Mambo Erzulie Freda Dahomey, also known simply as Erzulie Freda or even Freda, is the lwa of femininity, beauty and absolute wealth and luxury, and a consummate flirt. Unlike most other lwa, Erzulie Freda is conceptualized as a white woman of French origin who is profusely rich. In Haiti people perform their class membership linguistically. Those people who are affluent inevitably speak French, while the lower class tends to speak Haitian Kreyol. As a matter of fact, in an attempt to obtain social wealth (as well as economic wealth) a person may incorporate more and more French into their daily speech as they become increasingly aware of the French language. Erzulie Freda exudes affluence to the point that she often speaks exaggerated French and refuses to speak Haitian Kreyol, during her possession performance.

To serve Erzulie Freda takes some finesse. Because she is so rich she is also very difficult to please. If you give her three bottles of champagne she will undoubtedly want four. If you give her two takes you can be rest assured she will want three! Her hunger for wealth and luxury is absolutely insatiable. But when done correctly service to her always pays off. When doing a service to Erzulie Freda here is a song you can sing for her:

Erzulie O! Kay la mande oze,
Erzulie O! Kay la mande oze,
Erzulie O! Kay la mande oze,
Si nan pwen dlo, oze l avek losyon. 

Erzulie O! The house needs sprinkling,
Erzulie O! The house needs sprinkling,
Erzulie O! The house needs sprinkling,
If there is no water, sprinkle it with cologne.

 Along with being a woman of great wealth she is also a mambo. As a mambo she is thought to be exceedingly powerful and proficient with her asson and has become well known for her ability as a sorceress. Her presence alone is thought to nullify poison and spoil all negative wanga.

 Erzulie Freda is normally served on Thursdays with colors pink and white. During her services she is given foods such as pink champagne, pink and white cakes, fine cheeses, Crème de mint, chocolates, rice pudding with cinnamon, and is often given white doves as a sacrifice.

 Along with her favorite foods she is also offered perfumes such as pompieea and nuit de noel, make up, pink and white dresses, and gold jewelry.
