which spices are used in fragrances?

Ever been curious about the most popular spices - loved for their scents not just their taste?

1. Saffron

Saffron is a spice derived from the dried stigmas of the saffron crocus flower. It is widely considered to be the most expensive spice in the world due to the labour-intensive process of harvesting it.

Saffron has a warm, spicy, and slightly bitter aroma that can add depth and complexity to a fragrance. It can be used to create a cosy and inviting scent, or to add an exotic and mysterious quality to a perfume/attar/Bakhoor. Saffron can be combined with other ingredients such as cardamom, nutmeg, and patchouli to create a spicy, woody, and earthy scent. It can also be combined with floral and citrus notes such as jasmine, rose, and lemon to create a more bright and refreshing scent.
