Spikenard Essential Oil

Spikenard Essential Oil
(Nardostachys jatamansi (D.Don) DC.)


A deep, earthy, meditative aroma from the Himalayas.

Harvested in the high valleys and slopes of the Himalayan foothills, this steam-distilled Spikenard Essential Oil captures the timeless tranquility of Nepal’s mountain landscapes. Its aroma is dark, mossy, and gently sweet—rooted in earth, warmed by resin, and softened by herbaceous calm. A prized material in high perfumery and aromatherapeutic grounding work, it has been revered for centuries for its deeply centering presence.
