Finding Your Signature Attar – A Gentle Guide by Heritage Box
Attars are more than just fragrance — they are memory, ritual, and nature captured in oil. Distilled slowly using the ancient deg-bhapka method, each attar carries the legacy of India’s olfactory traditions. If you're new to attars or simply exploring, this guide will help you choose the one that speaks to your soul.
Follow Your Senses
Attars are worn close to the skin, making them deeply personal. Trust your intuition — let your body choose what feels right.
