More Information:

Floracopeia’s Motia Attar is a blend of night blooming jasmine that is steam distilled
into a superior grade sandalwood oil. Jasmine oil is one of the most expensive
of all floral oils:  over eight million blossoms are required to produce one kilo of
essence. Each blossom must be carefully harvested by hand so as not to bruise the
flower, which would produce unpleasant fragrance notes in the finished perfume.
Floracopeia offers numerous exotic attars, both traditional and contemporary which
are produced only in small quantities, using pure botanical ingredients.

In India the night-blooming jasmine is called mugra, Night Queen, who brings joy
to the heart and soul with her exotic sweetness. From the main growing areas
in Madurai in the south come tons of creamy white flowers, flown and trucked
overnight to the flower markets of the cities. They will be made into garlands for
festivities, offered to the deities in their temples, hung over lovers beds, and worn in
the hair of beautiful dark-skinned women.

Recent scientific research has confirmed what traditional Ayuvedic knowledge
has observed over the centuries. Studies on the effects of inhaling jasmine
fragrance have found that the flower produces a stimulating effect on the mind, and
significantly increases mental alertness. Other studies found that this stimulating
effect reduces the need for sleep. As lovers and tired parents know, these are
prerequisites for romantic fulfillment.

Attars can be used as you would any fine perfume. Because they are free of
synthetics ingredients, their fragrances promote health, wellbeing, and happiness.
