    Description

    Pure Attar Oil from Tauer Perfumes is an undiluted perfume oil in a 5ml dab vial, designed to bloom with your skin's warmth. It hits with a dark, leathery, animalic character right away, balanced by creamy Mysore sandalwood and an arab wood accord. Jasmine absolute from Egypt brings a subtle floral touch, while earthy Java vetiver and black cistus from Spain deepen the aromatic, almost smoky edge. It stays close to the skin in true attar tradition, unfolding modestly over hours without much projection.
