The Indian Subcontinent is well-known for its vetiver essential oil. Because it is generally known as ‘khus' or ‘khus-khus,' people may not recognise it by the name ‘vetiver.' The concentrated liquid produced from a plant that includes the volatile fragrance components is known as essential oil. Vetiver essential oil is derived from Vetiver, a perennial grass native to India, as the name suggests. The essential oil of vetiver comes from steam distillation of the plant's roots. It has a strong woody, smoky, and earthy scent. It's widely used in perfumes, cosmetics, and soaps, as well as in beverages as a flavouring component.
In the manufacture of alcoholic beverages, vetiver is employed as a flavour.
