Cardamom

Cardamom is a warm, spicy, and slightly sweet fragrance note with fresh, aromatic, and citrusy undertones. Its scent profile is complex and sophisticated, adding an exotic, lively quality to perfumes. Often used as a middle or top note, cardamom imparts a unique warmth and freshness that enhances the depth of a fragrance composition. It pairs well with citrus, florals, woods, and spices, contributing to balanced, modern, and elegant perfumes that evoke a sense of warmth and luxury.

History & Production: Cardamom comes from the seeds of the Elettaria cardamomum plant, which is native to the forests of India and Sri Lanka but also grown in countries like Guatemala. The seeds are harvested and the essential oil is extracted through steam distillation, capturing their distinct, spicy-sweet aroma. Cardamom has been used for centuries in culinary and medicinal practices and is one of the oldest known spices. In perfumery, it continues to be valued for its warm and exotic scent, adding complexity and an intriguing depth to both classic and modern fragrances.
