Cypriol is an herbaceous plant that looks like papyrus. Rhizomic plant native to the Indian continent, the cypriol flourishes in the beds of rivers. In India, the roots of cypriol have been used for thousands of years to perfume traditional clothing. Men also apply it to their foreheads to guarantee their success in love! To obtain the cypriol essence, the washed and dried rhizomes are distilled with steam. This essential oil is very tenacious and powerful. It is reminiscent of vetiver with its woody and earthy notes, in which one also detects spicy undertones. This ingredient is usually found in men’s fragrances, although its use is still not widespread.
