Perfumes with Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha

Cypriol, or nagarmotha, smells dry, woody and smoky with earthy and leathery facets: the rhizome of an Indian sedge that gives fragrances an oud-like darkness.

The rhizomes of Cyperus scariosus are steam-distilled into cypriol oil. Its scent combines elements of vetiver and patchouli with a lightly spicy, oud-like impression, which is why it is a frequent building block of oud accords. Cypriol appears roughly equally in the heart and base of a fragrance. It pairs with oud, vetiver, patchouli, frankincense, rose, saffron and leather.

Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha appears in 1,082 perfumes in the Fisfis catalogue and is used mostly as a heart note.
