Overview

For more than a millennium, Kannauj has been producing beautiful perfumes. Using age-old distillation methods that haven't altered since the Mughal Empire, the traditional craft of attar-making is being practised here. Entering a perfumery in Kannauj is like travelling back in time because of the enticing scent of the copper stills, sandalwood oil, rose petals, and vetiver roots. In addition to smelling the fragrances, guests get to meet the master perfumers and observe how they are created.

Watch the hydro-distillation process up close — from fresh rose petals being loaded into stills to the slow extraction of attar.
