Green, rootlike, damp-earthy. The smell of pulling a grass-like plant from wet marshland — muddy roots, crushed stems, and still water.

Miris

Green-earthy, damp, with a woody-rootlike depth. Wetter and simpler than vetiver, less smoky than nagarmotha oil in isolation. The impression is of crushed green stems pulled from wet soil — a combination of chlorophyll, mud, and root bark. More atmospheric than decorative.

Detaljno

Sedge refers to plants of the Cyperaceae family, a large group of grass-like plants found in wetlands worldwide. The most perfumery-relevant species is Cyperus scariosus (nagarmotha), whose roots produce an essential oil with a woody, earthy, slightly smoky character related to vetiver.

The sedge note in fragrance carries marshland and wetland environments — damp earth, crushed green stems, and the particular quality of stagnant fresh water. It is greener and wetter than vetiver, less rooty and complex, with a simpler green-earthy directness.

Cyperus scariosus oil (cypriol or nagarmotha oil) is the primary natural material used to represent sedge character. It contains cyperene, cyperotundone, and various sesquiterpenes that give it a woody-smoky quality overlaid on a green-aquatic foundation.

Dobijanje i hemija

Način dobijanja

Steam distillation of the dried rhizomes (roots) of Cyperus scariosus produces cypriol oil, a dark amber liquid. The roots are harvested, dried, and distilled, yielding approximately 0.5-1% oil. The oil is produced primarily in India, where Cyperus scariosus grows wild in marshy areas.

Nota
Cyperus scariosus (nagarmotha) essential oil — woody, earthy

U parfemima

Sedge is a heart-to-base note that provides green, earthy, wetland character. Cyperus scariosus (nagarmotha/cypriol) oil is the primary material used. It bridges green-aquatic top notes and earthy-woody bases, functioning similarly to vetiver but with a wetter, more marshland quality. Used in green, earthy, and aquatic compositions where a sense of organic wetland atmosphere is desired. Pairs with vetiver, patchouli, and aquatic notes.
