Attar

Alcohol-free attar online in India

Attar, also called itr, is a concentrated perfume oil, traditionally made from flowers, herbs, spices and woods and used for centuries across India and the Middle East. Because it is oil-based, attar contains no alcohol and wears close to the skin. This alcohol-free attar is formulated and tested for Indian heat.

Why choose attar

• Alcohol-free: made without alcohol, so it does not dry the skin the way alcohol sprays can.
• Close-to-skin: attar wears intimately and personally rather than projecting widely like a spray.
• Small amount: a dab is enough, so a little goes a long way.
• Choice of wear: suits daily wear, prayer time, festivals and gifting.

How to apply attar

Dab a very small amount on moisturised pulse points: wrists, behind the ears. Let it warm on the skin and avoid rubbing. Avoid applying directly on delicate fabrics, as oil can leave a mark.

Quality and safety

Made under ISO 22716 cosmetic GMP and compliant with US FDA guidelines (third-party certificate). Not tested on animals. Free shipping and cash on delivery on domestic orders. If you have very sensitive skin, do a patch test first.
