Miris

Warm, peppery, faintly onion-like, with a caraway-cumin edge. The thymoquinone gives it a slightly medicinal undertone. Earthier than cumin, less green than caraway, more complex than pepper. Like opening a jar of black seeds in a Cairo spice shop — warm, aromatic, ancient, slightly pungent.

Detaljno

Nigella (Nigella sativa, black cumin, black seed, kalonji) is a Ranunculaceae annual whose small black seeds have been used as a spice and medicine across the Middle East, South Asia, and North Africa for over 3,000 years. The essential oil has a complex, warm, spicy profile dominated by thymoquinone (the compound responsible for most of the plant's pharmacological activity), p-cymene, and carvacrol.

The scent is warm, peppery, slightly onion-like, with a caraway-cumin edge. It is distinct from both cumin (Cuminum cyminum) and black pepper (Piper nigrum) — earthier than the former, less terpenic than the latter.

Nigella sativa is native to the Mediterranean and western Asia. It is deeply embedded in Islamic tradition — the Prophet Muhammad reportedly said, 'In the black seed is healing for every disease except death.'

In perfumery, nigella provides a warm, complex spice note with Middle Eastern specificity.
