Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha

7 perfumes

Derived from the roots of the Cyperus scariosus grass, Cypriol oil—or Nagarmotha—is steam-distilled to capture its complex, earthy essence. Its olfactive profile is a sophisticated blend of smoky, woody, and leathery notes with a spicy, balsamic undertone. Primarily utilized as a tenacious base note, it provides depth and structural integrity to fragrances. In the Gulf market, it is highly prized for its ability to anchor heavy compositions, often paired with oud and amber to create a dark, resinous, and intoxicating trail.
