Aroma
  • A dense, hypnotic, and multi-layered aroma. It is not a simple "pretty" floral; it is heady and carnal.
  • It opens with a green, stem-like freshness, which quickly unfolds into a honeyed, spicy-floral heart.
  • Beneath the sweetness lies a deeply earthy, almost leathery-musk base with hints of hay and tobacco. It smells "golden"—intense, opulent, and slightly wild.

Common Usage Emotional & Psychological Depth

  • Deep Sedation: One of the most powerful oils for "switching off" an overactive mind. It is used to treat severe stress, nervous exhaustion, and hysteria.
  • Overcoming Emotional Blocks: Known as the "Oil of Self-Reflection," it helps individuals confront suppressed emotions and move past internal stagnation.
  • Dream Work & Introspection: Like Mugwort, it is used to enhance the vividness of dreams and facilitate deep meditation or "inner work."
  • Dispelling Negative Thought Patterns: Helps break the cycle of repetitive, intrusive thoughts, providing a sense of mental "stillness."

High-End Natural Perfumery & Aesthetics

  • Exotic Fragrance: Narcissus is a staple in luxury perfumery. Its scent is so potent that even a tiny amount can transform a blend, adding a rich, "honeyed" floral layer.
  • Aphrodisiac Qualities: Its heavy, hypnotic scent is traditionally used to spark romance and help overcome sexual inhibitions or emotional coldness.
  • Skin Softening: When diluted at extremely low levels in a carrier oil from clubarome.com, it is used in high-end facial oils to soften the appearance of the skin and provide a "bridal" glow.

Physical Support (Use with Caution)

  • Spasmodic Relief: Its sedative nature makes it effective at calming physical spasms, including those related to the respiratory or digestive systems.
  • Pain Management: Historically used in very low dilutions to "numb" or dull the sensation of chronic aches, though it is rarely a first-choice oil for physical pain due to its potency.

Blending note Is so potent that it can easily become overwhelming or "cloying." It works best when "opened up" by light citruses or grounded by clean, woody notes

Do you know? The name is derived from the Greek word narkao (to become numb), referring to the plant’s sedative properties. In mythology, Narcissus was the youth who fell in love with his own reflection; appropriately, the scent is said to help one develop a healthy sense of "self-love" and confidence

Contraindication
  • Use in Extreme Dilution.
  • Narcissus is incredibly strong and can be overwhelming or even cause headaches if used in high concentrations.
  • It should be diluted to 0.5% or less.
  • It is not recommended for use during pregnancy or with children.
