Mugwort

Mugwort is an aromatic herb with a distinctive, earthy and slightly bitter scent. It is derived from the Artemisia vulgaris plant, which is native to Europe and Asia. Mugwort has been used for centuries in traditional medicine and rituals.

Mugwort is believed to have a calming and grounding effect, helping to promote relaxation and introspection. It is often used in fragrances and incense to create a contemplative, spiritual atmosphere. Mugwort-based scents can be worn year-round, but are particularly suitable for autumn and winter when their earthy notes are most comforting.

In perfumery, mugwort is commonly used as a base note, providing depth and grounding to floral, woody, and oriental fragrances. It is often paired with notes like patchouli, vetiver, and incense to create earthy, meditative scents. Mugwort is an important ingredient in many niche and artisanal fragrances that aim to evoke a sense of nature and spirituality.
