Herbology Nagarmotha Oil – Pure Steam-Distilled Oil for Clear Skin, Scalp Balance & Hair Care

Herbology Nagarmotha Oil is 100% pure, steam-distilled Cyperus rotundus (Nagarmotha / Nut Grass) oil — extracted from the aromatic rhizomes of one of Ayurveda’s most revered yet underappreciated medicinal plants. Known in Sanskrit as “Musta,” Nagarmotha has been used for thousands of years in classical Ayurvedic formulations for its remarkable ability to balance excess pitta and kapha — the doshas associated with oiliness, inflammation, and skin congestion. Its distinctive earthy, woody, slightly smoky aroma is deeply grounding and complex, reminiscent of vetiver but with its own unique character that makes it a prized note in natural perfumery and therapeutic blends.

Nagarmotha Oil’s primary active compounds — including cyperene, cyperol, isocyperol, and patchoulenone — give it its characteristic anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and sebum-regulating properties. On skin, it is particularly effective for oily, acne-prone, or congested skin types — helping to control excess sebum production, reduce inflammation, and support a clearer, more balanced complexion without stripping the skin of its natural moisture. On the scalp, it regulates oiliness, soothes irritation, and creates a healthier environment for hair growth. In massage and aromatherapy blends, its grounding, earthy aroma promotes calm and mental clarity. A rare and genuinely effective herbal oil for those who appreciate the depth of classical Ayurvedic botanicals.
