Winter is attar season. Cold air keeps fragrance close to the skin and helps rich notes last longer, so this is the time for warm, deep attars. Here are FAHA's best winter attars.

Winter Attar Tips
- Moisturise first; dry winter skin absorbs fragrance quickly.
- Apply to your neck so the warmth of a scarf or shawl helps the scent bloom, but keep oil off delicate shawls.
- Rich attars are strong; one dab is usually enough.
