The Ancient Art of Attars (scents without alcohol)

[Paul Ferguson]

"Most modern perfumes are diluted with alcohol, but traditional attars are in a completely different category. Derived from an Arabic word that translates to "scent,” attars have been crafted for centuries using precious woods, flowers, resins, and aromatic oils in techniques that long predate modern perfumery. Rich and concentrated, these oil-based perfumes offer a very different scent experience from the alcohol-based fragrances most people are familiar with. Few people have devoted themselves to preserving and advancing this tradition quite like master perfumer JK DeLapp."
