Cardamom “Signature” Oil Customer
Variety: Zingiberaceae, Elettaria cardamomum
Green cardamom (the queen of spices) is a radiant gem in perfumery. While most suppliers sell oil from Ceylon and India, the supreme variety comes from the lush volcanic nation of beautiful Guatemala. In its native land of India, the spice is held in such high esteem that it forms a vital part of the festival dish payasam, a sweet and highly fragrant rice pudding.
Our cardamom oil comes from the highest grade of green cardamom pods and is the ultimate extraction of the spice. So much so that we call it our signature oil.
Interpreting Arctander: “Cardamom Oil has been used in perfumery for centuries, first written about in 1540 by Valerius Cordus. The oil is pale yellow to light brown and darkens in sunlight. Its scent starts strong and fresh, like eucalyptus, but softens into a warm, spicy, and woody aroma with a sweet floral touch. It is long-lasting and adds depth to any fragrance.
In perfumes, cardamom oil brings a warm sweetness and spicy richness. It works well in floral bases like rose and lily of the valley. It also adds warmth to Oriental fragrances, chypres, and powdery scents. Cardamom blends beautifully with oils like bergamot, ylang-ylang, and labdanum. Coriander oil is its perfect partner, making the scent more complex and refined. For perfumers, it is a versatile and essential ingredient.”

General Information
General Information
Like most suppliers and makers of quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lost prior to use but can result in the appearance of small particles or slight clouding.
All alcoholic fragrances should be macerated for up to a month and then chilled in a moderate freezer overnight before being filtered fine. This will remove all cloudiness or detritus and is the industry norm.
