    Attar/Mukhallat of the Day

    Royal Luban by @Elixir Attar, quite mesmerised by it at the first swipe. It smells just like frankincense on low heat but intriguingly in reality its a blend of various oils. Really mind boggling when you get to think about it.

    KZ Mysore Heartwood Powder

    Was going to say, you might want to follow him on instagram/ Facebook. Sometimes he hits there with a post of his upcoming products so you get a bit of early warning to glue yourself on the screen and get yourself ready.

    Wanted to get some views among these bottles, A or B? And those who have used the bottle A, what's the up's and downs? Are there possible of metal contact with the oil? Only reason I'm considering A, it seems to have similar portable carry as a normal bottle and seems to be mess-free as you only...
