You may be more familiar with Nutmeg as a spice for tasty Autumn dishes and wintry beverages, but Nutmeg essential oil offers so much more.
Similar to the aroma when baking with Nutmeg, the essential oil has a spicy and woody fragrance.
Native to Moluccas and nearby islands, Nutmeg is generally cultivated in the areas surrounding Indonesia. An evergreen tree that produces smooth bark, dense foliage and small yellow flowers, the plant’s seeds are steam distilled to extract the essential oil.
