Nutmeg Flower

Photo Nutmeg Flower :: fragrance ingredients

Nutmeg Flower, derived from the nutmeg tree (Myristica fragrans), is not commonly mentioned but plays a subtle role in perfumery. The nutmeg spice itself, known for its warm, spicy scent, is often overshadowed by the actual nutmeg flower, which has a softer, less intense aroma. While not as prominent as the spice, nutmeg flower adds a gentle, spicy sweetness to compositions, mainly used to complement other warm and spicy notes. The flower, along with the seed, is harvested from the nutmeg tree, primarily found in Indonesia.

Natural or Synthetic?
Nutmeg Flower, though rare, is used in its natural form when available, offering a unique floral, spicy scent. Due to its rarity, synthetic versions or alternative natural essences might be used to replicate or complement its fragrance in perfumes.
