Nutmeg

Nutmeg is a warm, slightly sweet and slightly spicy fragrance note derived from the seed of the nutmeg tree. It has a rich, complex aroma with hints of cinnamon, clove, and citrus. Nutmeg is commonly used in baking and cuisine, but it is also a prized ingredient in many fine fragrances.

Nutmeg has a comforting, cozy aroma that can evoke feelings of warmth, coziness, and nostalgia. Fragrances featuring nutmeg are often suitable for cooler weather and can create a sense of relaxation and well-being. They work well in casual, intimate settings and can be worn year-round, though they may be especially enjoyable in the fall and winter seasons.

Nutmeg is commonly used as a base or heart note in fragrances, providing a warm, spicy foundation. It pairs well with other spices like cinnamon, clove, and cardamom, as well as woody notes like sandalwood and cedar. Nutmeg is a frequent component in oriental, gourmand, and even some floral fragrances, where it adds depth and complexity.
