Mugwort

About

Mugwort has a bitter, green-aromatic character—herbaceous and slightly camphoraceous with dusty hay, a cool eucalyptus-like freshness, faint floral sweetness and smoky, medicinal undertones that evoke dusk-lit hedgerows and ritual incense. In perfumery it is used as a top-to-middle aromatic to lend dry, bitter complexity and a nocturnal, herbal shadow, blending well with woods, leather, incense, citrus, spices and florals to provide green lift, metallic/ozonic facets and a slightly resinous or medicinal edge.
