What it smells like

Nutmeg smells warm, sweet and woody-spicy, with a soft, nutty richness, a hint of camphor and a slightly creamy depth. It feels cozy and rounded, less sharp than pepper and gentler than clove. It is used in the top and heart to add a smooth, inviting spice. It pairs well with vanilla, sandalwood, lavender, citrus and amber, giving blends a comforting, spicy warmth.

Nutmeg is listed in 412 perfumes in this directory. It is used across the heart, top and base positions rather than in one fixed place.
