Majmua
Note Profile
About
Majmua is a traditional Indian attar from Kannauj, blended from four attars: kewda, kadam, mitti and khus, in a sandalwood base. Its name means 'a collection'.
Scent Profile
Majmua smells green, floral, earthy and woody all at once, cool and damp, like rain on wet ground under trees. A fresh green and a sweet, slightly tropical floral sit on top. Below them is the smell of wet clay and loam, with the damp earth of vetiver. A balsamic sandalwood and a cool vetiver root hold it at the base.
