Nutmeg oil, valued for its characteristic spicy and woody aroma, is widely used in traditional cooking and perfumery. While nutmeg is grown globally, the oil commonly originates from Indonesia. Due to IFRA restrictions on safrole content, the safrole is removed from the oil, ensuring its safety while maintaining its bold and explosive fragrance profile.

Safrole-free nutmeg oil is a versatile ingredient in spicy, oriental fragrances, as well as floral, chypre, and fresh aromatic accords. Free from carcinogenic safrole and IFRA-restricted methyl eugenol, it also contains reduced levels of iso eugenol and eugenol, making it a safer option for cosmetic and perfumery use. Its compliance with regulatory standards and its ability to contribute warmth and depth to fragrance compositions make safrole-free nutmeg oil a preferred choice for crafting sophisticated and balanced scent profiles.
