Exactly. I started my fragrance journey(yet I still cannot discern the various notes 😁) from does, moved to body mists/no gas sprays and to perfumes and then finally stopped at attars.
Attars have 2 big advantages. They are pocket friendly and cost much less as compared to perfumes(Excluding the niche attar houses).
Try GSJM discovery set. You will love it.
Or stick to the tried and tested attars from the house of Ajmal.
There are a lot of desi attar houses which are creating some awesome formulations. If you are interested, then can try Baanka, Hakimi, Neesh.
