Attar & Parfum - Bodh Gaya Oud

Ingredient:  Patchouli, Vintage Oud, Pink Lotus, Orris, Rose, etc.

This attar was inspired by the life journey of Prince Siddhartha. In this world, each of us inevitably encounters various kinds of suffering, and every moment of suffering helps us move toward ultimate awakening.

I first used the bitterness of patchouli and Oud to evoke the sense of suffering in life and the quiet serenity of a temple. Then I added rose and pink lotus to create the atmosphere of mist and rain, guiding one toward inner peace. Finally, I added Orris, a root with a soft, powdery grace for the final push to lift the composition beyond earth and rain, toward liberty and Heaven. Its delicate, ethereal touch brings the feeling of a gentle breeze after a storm, carrying the spirit into lightness and clarity. 

Once you smell it, you will walk the path of the Prince Siddhartha, feeling the weight of suffering; the stirrings of compassion; and the gentle release into freedom. Layer by layer, the fragrance will carry you from the depths of human struggle to the light of awakening, not unlike the Buddha’s journey from sorrow to enlightenment. In its embrace, you will receive an invitation to find inner peace, to let go of burdens, and to feel a fleeting moment of the calmness that lies beyond suffering.
