CARDAMOM

Cardamom, a universally appreciated aroma that has inspired us since ancient times.

It is widely used in gastronomy and in ancient times it was highly valued and versatile, used since time immemorial to create perfumes and offerings, and to embalm the bodies of important personalities.

Cardamom seeds have a particularly intense aroma that is reminiscent of spices,  camphor, amber and citrus.

In perfumery, its essential oil is used, extracted from the seeds through steam distillation. This results in a pale yellow oil that retains all the aromatic richness of the original scent.

It is used for the creation of spiced perfumes, but only by the most sophisticated cosmetic brands . We can find it as a base in the Eau de Parfum fragrances “Black Citrus” by Vilhelm, in Eau de Parfum “African Leather”, in “Tamarindo” by Memo Paris and in “Rose Noir” by BYREDO. An essence that has been inspiring us since the year 700 a.C. , when it came to us from the distant and mysterious India.
