Adam Michael has this to say “Wow, this is one of the most beautiful absolutes I have ever experienced. The opening notes of nigella damascena flower absolute are reminiscent of sweet syrup, acacia honey and manuka honey. The heart notes are warm honey, stewed apples, brown sugar, and white grape refreshing. The base notes are outstanding and comprise of acacia honey, beeswax, mimosa, cassie absolute, candyfloss, fresh strawberries, powerful peach and sweet watery apple.”
Arctander has this to say “Nigella Damascena Oil can be used in perfumery, not only for lipstick perfumes where it produces interesting modifications of the conventional strawberry-peach-pineapple type of fruity perfumes, but also in many floral bases, e.g. gardenia, honeysuckle, jasmine, lilac, neroli, etc. The oil blends well with linalool, phenyl ethyl alcohol, hydroxycitronellal, benzylacetate, terpeneless petitgrain oil, ylang ylang oil, bergamot oil, nerol, undecanolide, nonanolide, gamma valerolactone, etc. It is a comparatively powerful and penetrating perfume material which can be used effectively at concentrations below one percent.”
Nigella damascena absolute is produced by solvent extracting French seeds. Deep yellow in colour and of a sticky but pourable viscosity.

One of the most exquisite natural materials on the market. Indispensable to beeswax and honey accords and honeyed floral accords. Exceptional lasting power. Beautiful accent to resinous blends. Sweet golden nectar aroma with delicate nuances of fruits and florals. I had this material from a shuttered source years ago and have been searching for it ever since. Hermitage is the only source for this essence and I am so thrilled that this has been added to the already esteemed offerings on the site. I really appreciate that Hermitage offers so many unique materials that cannot be found elsewhere. Nigella Damascena is one of my favorite materials to work with; there is simply nothing else like it. Worth every penny and then some. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.
