Ajwain essential oil is derived from the edible seeds of the Ajwain plant Trachyspermum ammi, which is also known as carom or bishop's weed. This essential oil has a strong, spicy, and pungent aroma. It is commonly used in traditional self care and widely used in Ayurvedic preparations. Rich in thymol. Not commonly used in perfumery as the scent can be quite overpowering. However, it has a strong, distinctive aroma characterized by its earthy, spicy, and slightly herbaceous notes. Some niche or artisan perfumers might experiment with it to add unique and unconventional accents to their fragrances. The oil's potent and intense nature makes it suitable for creating bold and exotic scent profiles when used very sparingly.
