\\\"Ittar\\\" refers to traditional South Asian perfumes or attars. These are natural fragrances derived from botanical sources such as flowers, herbs, spices, and woods. The process of making ittar involves distilling essential oils from these natural materials and then blending them to create unique and intricate scents.
Ittars have a long history and cultural significance in South Asia, particularly in India, where they have been used for centuries. They are often applied to the skin and hair and are known for their long-lasting and complex fragrances.
The art of making ittars is highly valued, and various regions have their own traditional methods and ingredients. Some popular ittar fragrances include rose, jasmine, sandalwood, and musk. Ittars are commonly used in religious ceremonies, traditional celebrations, and as personal fragrances.
