A note on the scent
Rich, warm and intensely spicy, with the sweet, festive depth of mulled wine and gingerbread. In the kitchen it brings a winter-holiday mood to baking, stewed fruit and spiced drinks; because it is so concentrated, the tip of a toothpick dipped in the oil is often all a recipe needs.
Chemical profile
An essential oil is a natural mixture of dozens of compounds. These are the ones that typically dominate it; the exact composition varies from batch to batch.
- C10H12O2Eugenol

For food flavouring.
