If you want all the components of nutmeg in your food, all these herbs put together contain most of them and then some. You will not need nutmeg. Sabinene in marjoram, eugenol in basil, terpinen-4-ol in tarragon, myristicin in dill seed, pinene in cilantro seed, and you have copied nutmeg, plus a few extra flavors.
If you like that idea, you might also like these nutmeg substitutes:
4 Parts Tarragon Leaves for Elemicin & Methyl Eugenol.
3 Parts Sweet Marjoram Leaves for Sabinene & Terpinen-4-ol.
2 Parts Cumin Seeds for Beta/Alpha-Pinene & Gamma-Terpinene.
Or
4 Parts Tarragon Leaves for elemicin and methyl eugenol.
3 Parts Sweet Marjoram Leaves for sabinene and terpinen-4-ol.
2 Parts Basil Leaves for eugenol.
2 Parts Cumin Seeds for beta-pinene, alpha-pinene, and gamma-terpinenes.
You can also try using tulsi for basil, or coriander seeds instead of cumin. Or you might try bay leaf instead of cumin. These blends could also be good with dill, thyme, sage, oregano, or fennel. It might help to toast and grind the seeds, or just grind everything together, or use fresh herbs.

I bought this collection several years ago and continue to enjoy this wonderful medley of herbs. There are enough seeds in this collection to keep both you and the neighbors’ gardens looking good. The Sage found a permanent home in a foundation planter next to the house – fresh whenever we need some. The oregano and thyme are permanent bushes that have masses of harvest all summer long. The dill roams freely about the garden, depending on where I want it to grow, the seeds from last year take care of this year. Summer savory reseeds itself as well, and I can’t tell you how many people I’ve shared the secret of “savory in your homemade soup” with. Tarragon was a total stranger, but now a friendly addition to Indian Curry. And if you keep nipping the basil leaves back, you’ll be knee deep in the stuff and very popular with the pesto crowd. Thanks for a true gift that keeps on giving.
