Cardamom CO2 (TOTAL)
Mark Evans has this to say “This cardamom CO2 total extract is uncannily true to the fragrance of freshly ground, green cardamom pods. Surely this is one of the most evocative aromas you can possibly experience. The intense and pungent vibrancy of menthol aromatics, eucalyptus, sweet warmth, woods, spice, camphor and spun sugar transport you to the spice markets of Southern Asia and the Middle East. In fact if you’ve ever tasted cardamom halva (a must with Turkish coffee) you’ll know how this CO2 smells.
Long lasting and powerful, this extract blends perfectly with any other aromatic or cineole material. In perfumery cardamom CO2 can be used to provide warmth to Orientals, aromatic accords, gourmands, incense blends, chypres and spicy accords.”

This is delightful, like fresh crushed cardamon pods. It’s sweet, carefully pungent without being too heady, kind of a saffron red peppery spicy, minty, eucalyptus, almost an oriental rose! It makes the tip of my tongue glisten, and my mouth salivate. I’m craving Indian sweets from with this spice or a lush lamb, cardamom & pepper curry I make!

It’s the best! I don’t know what to do with my Cardamom EO after ordering bottle after bottle of this CO2. It is nothing like the aromatherapist’s essential oil, which is nothing but a watered down distillation of this, the queen of spices. Finally a material that does justice to the pod.

Bought this out of curiosity. May try diluting this and adding a little essence of it in a spiced floral blend…could be interesting. So fun to have things like this to play around with! Thank you!
