Bakhoor Attar

Description

What is Bakhoor Attar?

Bakhoor Attar is natural attar extracted from oud absorbed in floral and musk oils. Hundreds of years ago, queens in different regions of the world were using this attar to scent their body, hair, and hands. 

Our Bakhoor Attar is 100% Non Alcoholic. That makes it popular in middle-eastern countries and also because of its religious significance. But as tourists came to these countries, they are also learning about this oriental product.

If you like Oud, then you will definitely like it. You will also get it in a beautiful bottle to keep it.

What does Bakhoor Attar smell like?

Attar Bakhoor has a strong woody, musky and floral fragrance. It is also quite long-lasting compared to floral attars. You will find it very different from other attars the first time, but it will later have a positive effect on your body and soul. Women mainly like it but men can also wear it.

Where did Bakhoor originate?

Bakhoor originated in the Arabian Peninsula. Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Egypt are some countries where we have historic usage of it. People have been using it to freshen their rooms and bodies. It has been a prominent part of their lifestyle. 

In Islamic history, the Holy Prophet and his companions used it regularly but specifically on Fridays. Later it was adored by ancient Roman and Greeks cultures. We have found that it also reached east Asia where it became part of Buddhism in some way.

Benefits of Bakhoor

Bakhoor is simply wooden chips (mostly Oud/Agarwood) soaked in scented oils. When it is burned, it diffuses its unique aroma in that place. At weddings and social gatherings of Muslim communities, burned bakhoor is passed around the room to welcome the guests.

In middle-east countries, families burn bakhour in their homes and around their clothes. The aroma gets infused in curtains, bed sheets, pillows, and sofas. It has huge importance in Islam and its rituals as well.

Bakhour is a wonderful choice for aromatherapy and meditation. It will help in lowering stress and anxiety but also induces calmness and relaxation. It blends well with many other essential oils, especially sandalwood, rose, and jasmine.

High-end incenses, perfumes, and room fresheners are also made using bakhoor. It can be found in different varieties: incense, chips, or blocks. Our Bakhor attar is a good option for regular use of perfume oil.

Difference between Oud and Bakhoor

Oud is the wood we get from the Agarwood trees that carries a strong woody smell. Bakhoor is this same Oud but is dipped in some other oils to add some additional fragrant notes to it.

How do we make this ittar?

We make this attar just like the rest, using the traditional method of steam distillation. This keeps the natural and therapeutic benefits intact and spreads the purest aroma around you. Our manufacturing plant is located in Kannauj which is also known as the perfume city of India.
