Note Profile
Scent Profile
Sugandha Kokila has a warm, spicy-herbal aroma with camphoraceous and woody undertones. It displays nuances reminiscent of cinnamon, clove, and eucalyptus, with a slightly resinous character that becomes softer and balsamic as it dries down. The scent is complex, offering both freshness and depth.
Origin
Sugandha Kokila oil is steam-distilled from the dried berries of the Cinnamomum glaucescens tree, native to the Himalayan regions of Nepal and India. The berries are harvested from wild or cultivated trees, and the essential oil is prized in both traditional medicine and perfumery.
Usage in Perfumery
Perfumers use Sugandha Kokila primarily as a heart or base note to impart spicy, aromatic warmth and complexity. It blends well with woody, resinous, and oriental materials, and is valued for its ability to add richness and diffusion to herbal and spicy accords.
