The Making of Pure, Botanical Attars with David Crow (Traditional Indian Perfumes & Fragrances)
Natural perfumes are superior to synthetic perfumes in many ways, but most Westerners have never heard of them. In this video, master herbalist and Floracopeia founding director David Crow tells us about attars, a type of natural perfume that has been around for centuries.
Crow explains what an attar is, how an attar is made, where it comes from, and what makes an attar different than all other aromatic products. You’ll also learn about the controversy around the status of Indian Sandalwood (Santalum alba), and how important it is to source sustainable, legal sandalwood oil.
