Elettaria cardamomum
Benefits
Natural
The intensely warm, fresh aroma of cardamom is like a breath of fresh air. Cardamom essential oil is effective in products for warming, aromatic massage and to flavor lip balm.
Cardamom is part of the ginger family. Fruits from the shrub are dried slowly to prevent them from bursting open and losing their seeds. An essential oil is distilled from the seeds, which can be colorless or yellow. The scent of the oil is sweet, spicy and almost balsamic.
