Spikenard (Jatamansi) Essential Oil – Brown

Brown Spikenard Essential Oil is a traditional and highly valued form of spikenard oil obtained through steam distillation of the roots and rhizomes of the Nardostachys jatamansi plant. This plant is native to the Himalayan mountain regions, where it has been harvested and used for centuries in aromatic and wellness traditions.

Known in India as Jatamansi or Indian Spikenard, Brown Spikenard Essential Oil is distinguished by its deep brown to dark amber color and its rich, warm, earthy, woody, and slightly musky aroma. Compared to greener varieties, the brown grade typically has a deeper, heavier, and more resinous scent profile, making it especially popular for classic perfumery and grounding aromatic applications.
