Benefits & Uses

Heena (Lawsonia inermis) is a small scented tree native to Asia and Africa. It is also known as the Mignonette tree or Egyptian privet. This tree belongs to the Lythraceae family. 

From its leaves, a dye is prepared which is used to make body art on skin or nails, and sometimes to change the hair color. Sometimes, fabrics are also dyed with Hina. Nowadays, it is also a natural alternative for making eyebrow pencils.

The earliest use of Heena was found in ancient Egyptian culture where the Pharoh’s fingers and toes were dyed with it. People in middle-east were also applying it to cool down from the hot temperature there.

In India and many neighboring countries, Heena or Mehandi are used on religious occasions and weddings. It is one of the oldest cosmetics in the world. It also has some medicinal benefits in relieving jaundice and skin inflammation.

But the biggest use of this attar is as a luxury perfume. Our Heena Attar is a wonderful choice to wear during weddings or religious gatherings. Eid, Diwali, Karwa Chauth, and Mawlid, just to name a few. People around you will definitely ask about this unique perfume oil.

Both men and women can apply it, especially during the summer or rainy season. This is because it has a refreshing cooling effect on the body. That also makes it suitable for meditation and aromatherapy. It is an amazing stress-buster.

Commercially, it is used as a base or middle note in modern perfumery. The tobacco industry also purchases it in larger quantities for adding flavor and fragrance.

How is Hina Attar made?

Fresh flowers of the Heena tree are distilled using the traditional ‘Deg and Bhapka’ method to make our Heena Attar. We manufacture them at Kannauj, the perfume capital of India.

Flowers are put in a big container (Deg) with water. This container is connected to a small vessel (Bhapka). When the container is heated, the stream is passed to the vessel where a base oil absorbs the fragrance out of the flowers.

Note: For external use only. We also recommend doing a patch test before using it directly on the skin. Pregnant and nursing mothers should consult their doctors before application.
