In the vast universe of aromatic essential oils, few gems remain as precious yet under-appreciated as Sugandh Mantri essential oil. Known in India as the “fragrance that pleases the gods,” Sugandh Mantri (Gandhapura or Homalomena aromatica) has been a well-kept secret of traditional perfumery and Ayurvedic healing for centuries. At Aroma Monk, we’re proud to bring you the purest, therapeutically graded Sugandh Mantri oil sourced directly from the lush forests of Northeast India.
Sugandh Mantri, sometimes called Indian Spikenard or Aromatic Ginger Lily, is a perennial rhizomatous herb belonging to the Zingiberaceae family. The essential oil is steam-distilled from the dried roots and rhizomes, yielding a warm, woody, earthy aroma with subtle sweet-spicy and slightly camphoraceous undertones. Its Sanskrit name literally translates to “fragrance minister,” reflecting its royal status in ancient Indian attars and incense blends.
Unlike the more common Indian Spikenard (Nardostachys jatamansi), Sugandh Mantri essential oil offers a richer, more radiant profile that beautifully bridges earthy vetiver and luxurious oudh.
