## About
One drop on a perfume strip, and the air smells of eggnog and winter evenings by the fire. This is nutmeg as you have rarely met it: far sweeter and more complex than any steam-distilled nutmeg oil.It is a CO2 extract of wildcrafted Myristica fragrans fruit, extracted in Germany. Its character is invigorating and stimulating, yet warm and welcoming, and the slightest drop in a blend adds a sweet, spicy, sensual note. It wakes rather than relaxes. We hold it in great respect: no more than about ten bottles are filled at a time, so no one breathes its fumes in excess.DetailsBotanical name: Myristica fragransPlant part: wildcrafted fruitMethod: CO2 extraction, in GermanyShelf life: about 2 to 3 years after openingBlends with: the sweeter citrus oils, other spices, Bay, Geranium, Petitgrain, Ylang YlangHow to useUse it with discretion, a drop at a time. In excess it overstimulates the brain and heart and can cause hallucinations and possibly convulsions. Avoid it during pregnancy, dilute it in a carrier before it touches skin, and keep it out of reach of children. Store it in the dark, refrigerated if you can, and decant a half-empty bottle into a smaller, full one to extend its life.A little spice with a long memory, for the blender who measures carefully.
