How it unfolds

A scent pyramid, not a note list.

Crave-Inspired Unisex opens on mandarin, citrus, settles into green tea, and dries down to musk, cedarwood. Because it is an oil rather than an alcohol spray, that whole arc happens slowly and close to the skin — expect 5–8 hours from a single pass of the roller.

The blend

Crave-Inspired Unisex

There is a moment every day that deserves ritual. Crave was blended for exactly that moment.

The opening of Mandarin and Citrus gives way to Green Tea, resting finally on Musk and Cedarwood — a slow, deliberate dry-down. Concentrated, alcohol-free and pocket-sized — ritual you can carry into pooja mornings and quiet prayer.

Two formats

Alcohol-free roll-on attars that stay close, and eau de parfums that carry.

Long-wearing

5–8 hours on skin from a single application.

Small-batch

Blended and filled in our own workshop in India.

Gift-ready

Wrapped by hand, with a note if you want one.

The ritual

How to wear it.

Start on warm skin

Roll or spray once across the inside of each wrist. Body heat opens the top notes.

Pulse points only

Wrists, the hollow behind each ear, base of the throat. Three points is plenty.

Do not rub

Rubbing crushes the top notes and shortens the dry-down. Let it sit.

Re-apply when it steps back

An oil stays close and fades quietly; an eau de parfum carries further and thins sooner. One more pass at the wrists is enough either way.

Concentrated attar oil being decanted from a glass vial

Crave typically lasts 5–8 hours on skin. As an alcohol-free perfume oil it has no alcohol to flash off, so it dries down slowly and stays closer to the skin as it fades. Fresh Citrus compositions like this one hold especially well on warm pulse points — wrists, neck and behind the ears. For all-day events, one midday touch-up is plenty.

Yes — Crave is a 100% alcohol-free attar (perfume oil). There is no alcohol to dry out skin or clash with prayer and religious settings, which is why attars are the traditional choice across India and the Middle East. As with any fragrance, do a small patch test first if you have very sensitive skin.

Crave is genuinely unisex. The bright, zesty character reads elegant rather than gendered, and it is worn and loved by both men and women. Fragrance families like fresh citrus sit on skin chemistry differently for everyone — which is exactly what makes a shared bottle interesting.

Roll it directly onto warm pulse points — inner wrists, the base of the throat, behind the ears. Do not rub afterwards; rubbing breaks the oil's dry-down and shortens its life. Because attar is concentrated oil, start with less than you think you need — one pass per point — and build up only if you want more presence.

Crave suits pooja mornings and quiet prayer, and everyday wear beautifully. Being alcohol-free, it is appropriate for pooja, temple visits and prayer settings where traditional ittar is preferred. Beyond devotional use, its bright, zesty character carries easily into daily wear — one bottle, both worlds.

Yes — the 8 ml roll-on is built for exactly that. It is far under airline liquid limits, the rollerball design will not spill in a bag, and no alcohol means no worries in checked or cabin luggage. Slip it into a pocket, pouch or pencil case and reapply anywhere, no spraying required.
