Incense guide
A plain-language answer from the makers of Aadhya incense and dhoop.
Quick answer
Attar (ittar) is a natural perfume oil made by distilling flowers, herbs or woods, traditionally into a base of sandalwood oil, using copper stills called degs. Kannauj in Uttar Pradesh is India's attar capital, famous for rose, kewda, mitti and shamama.

Flowers are heated with water in a copper deg; the fragrant vapour travels through a bamboo pipe into a receiver holding sandalwood oil, which absorbs the scent over days. The process, deg-bhapka, has changed little in centuries.
Many Indian incense fragrances, such as rose, mogra and kewda, share their roots with attar. Our Rose Bambooless Dhoop opens on a Kannauj rose top note.
An attar that captures the smell of rain on earth, made by distilling baked clay.
Traditional attars are oil-based and contain no alcohol.
Attar is a method and a category of perfume oil; oudh is a specific fragrant resin from agarwood, also made into oil.
