Odor: characteristic Use: Mark Evans has this to say “This CO2 extraction from the dried kernels of the nutmeg plant is simply beautiful in comparison with the essential oil. It has a richer, more true-to-nature fragrance – very warm, suave, spicy-balsamic and strongly aromatic. The terpenes that are prominent in the odour profile of the EO and have a piny smell are almost non-existent in the CO2 making for a much more pleasant experience. |
