As you know by now, I love the spicy side of things. My feelings for Cardamom Oil and Cardamom in general are feelings of warmth and fondness. Cardamom is a real feel-good spice. It is luscious, rich, exotic and uniquely aromatic. The effect of the oil is soothing and uplifting. As a consequence of this it is excellent for reducing drowsiness and helping concentration. Cardamom is a member of the ginger family, therefore in massage it is ideal as part of a warming nurturing blend.
