Product Overview
Our organically grown Cardamom essential oil is a treat for the senses. The extremely tenacious aroma is spicy-sweet, rich, warm, highly aromatic and slightly cineolic, becoming balsamic-woody and increasingly sweet in the drydown. Its pure and complex aroma makes this organic Cardamom essential oil one that we highly recommend!
A member of the Ginger family, Cardamom is one of the oldest essential oils known in perfumery. Presently, it is used extensively in cosmetics and perfumery to add a warm, fresh, and invigorating quality. According to Ayurveda, Cardamom enlivens the heart and refreshes the senses.[1] With a lively array of oxides and ester molecules, it is well suited for massage blends, chest rubs, and in diffusers.
