Goes Well With
Nutmeg oil blends harmoniously with other warm and spicy oils like cinnamon, clove, and ginger to create inviting, comforting aromas. It also pairs well with sweet and floral oils such as vanilla, lavender, and ylang-ylang for balanced, complex blends. For grounding and depth, combine Nutmeg with woody oils like sandalwood and cedarwood.

Directions and Suggested Usage
Diffuse 3–5 drops to create a cozy and stimulating environment. For topical use, dilute with a carrier oil (1–2%) before applying to muscles, joints, or pulse points. Nutmeg oil is excellent in massage oils, bath blends, and diffusers aimed at relaxation and mental focus. Always conduct a patch test before topical application.

Caution
For external use only. Dilute before use to avoid skin irritation. Avoid use during pregnancy and for children under 6 years old. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Consult a healthcare professional if pregnant, nursing, or under medical supervision. Perform a patch test prior to topical use.

Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep the bottle tightly sealed to preserve potency and aroma.
