Gulab Attar (rose in sandalwood)
Impact
Working dilution
What does Gulab Attar (rose in sandalwood) smell like?
Traditional Kannauj deg-and-bhapka distillation of damask rose petals directly into sandalwood oil: a soft, honeyed, slightly winey rose laid over creamy santalol warmth that rounds every edge off the flower. The sandalwood is not a diluent but a partner, so the rose never turns sharp or terpenic and holds for days. Use neat as an attar or as a pre-fixed rose heart in oud, saffron and amber bases.
Use Gulab Attar (rose in sandalwood) in a formula
What is Gulab Attar (rose in sandalwood) made of?
What the supplier DECLARES, not the whole formula. A base is a blend somebody else made: an IFRA conformity certificate and an allergen declaration list the restricted and declarable substances only, so these shares add up to a few percent and the remainder stays with the house. PerfuMate counts exactly what is listed here and claims nothing about the rest.
