Intense Perfumed Body Mists
In India, perfumes and scented objects have been used from pre-Vedic and Vedic periods for religious ceremonies, societal customs and daily rituals. Since then, they have become an intrinsic part and parcel of human life. In Ayurveda — a more than 6,000-year-old-Science — perfumes have medicinal values which are well-known. Dhupan or medicated fumigation was a preventive approach taken to eliminate the airborne infection. Medicated oils and powders were prepared from perfumes and used on external cuts and bruises. Perfumes were also used to anoint various body parts or Anulepan. Chewing paan or betel leaves (Tambulam) was used to clean the mouth, leaving it fragrant. Scented oils were used to massage the body (Abhyanga) and keep the skin smooth, healthy and invigorated.
Read MoreThe Forest Essentials Intense Perfumed Body Mists come in two hypnotic variations — Sunehre Din and Chandani Raatein — with captivating scents and each have their own story to tell. Crafted using the traditional steam-distillation method, which captures the core essence of the essential oils and the floral waters, these Intense Perfumed Body Mists are prepared with a base of Pure Grain Alcohol. These fragrances also contain Aloe Vera Juice which keeps the skin intensely hydrated as well as perfumed with a long-lasting aroma.
Sunehre Din or Radiant Days: Recommended to be worn during the day, at the top of this perfume lies Rose Absolute, which brings an appealing character to the fragrance. Hand-plucked and freshly sourced from the gardens of Kannauj (also known as the “Fragrance Capital of India”) in Uttar Pradesh, the Desi Gulab is known to intensely hydrate the skin and uplift the spirit and soul. Kashmiri Saffron and Marigold form the heart notes for this fragrance, magically adding a sweetish note to awaken the senses. Enveloped at the base of this fragrance is a smoky, woody whiff of Maulshree, a tree with tiny cream-coloured flowers. Used extensively during the Mughal Empire as a decorative symbol of wealth, Maulshree is evocative of a bright, refreshing experience.
Chandani Raatein or Moonlit Nights: Recommended to be worn after dark, at the heart of this perfume lies seductive floral overtones of Ruh Motia and a fresh note of White Jasmine (Nayamalika), which bring a soft and evocative vibrancy to the fragrance. Sourced from Madurai, Tamil Nadu in Southern India, Jasmine is also known as the “Flower to the Gods”. Plucked at dawn, when the flower reaches its maximum potency, Jasmine has a sweet, calming fragrance that helps relieve stress and release tension. Imbued with fragrant Golden Champa and delicate Raat ki Raani (Queen of the Sky), Chandani Raatein finishes with a sensorial base note of a deeply opulent Sandalwood. Also known as Chandan in India, Sandalwood is known to have balancing and cooling properties.
