NUTMEG Essential Oil
Nutmeg Essential Oil
Nutmeg comes from an evergreen tree that’s indigenous to Indonesia, and has a warm, spicy aroma that is energising and uplifting. Nutmeg oil (Myristica fragrans) made from the seed oil, blends well with other oils such as Orange, Clary Sage, any Eucalyptus, and Ginger.
Steam distilled from the fruit and seeds of the tree, Nutmeg essential oil has a sweet and distinctly spicy taste, making it both a powerful and versatile essential oil. It is particularly good to enhance the flavour of roast vegetables. Whether it’s baked into spice cake or blended into tea, this pungent spice offers a warm, nostalgic taste and aroma. It can be calming when used before bedtime. It is available in a 5ml bottle.
- DIY air freshener: put 3-5 drops of essential oil onto 3-4 cotton balls and place them in a tiny bowl. You can place the bowls all around the house (perhaps behind the toilet or on the window sills) for a fresh-smelling home.
Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Keep away from eyes and mucous membranes. If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition, consult a health professional prior to use.
