| Shamama |
It is a rich, deep and intensely oriental fragrance much prized in India and the Middle East but relatively little known in the West. Knowledge of the Hina making process is a carefully guarded secret and has been portrayed, at best, as one in which a number of aromatic herbs, spices, roots, seeds, etc. have been combined and distilled to produce the characteristically potent oriental fragrance.
Some of the raw materials used are spikenard, yew, oakmoss, cardamom, juniper berry, nutmeg, mace, clove bud, ambrette seed, laurel berry, valerian, galangal root, cyperus root and sugandh kokila, sandalwood, and saffron.
The notes that contribute to the overall Hina compositions are deep mysterious spicy, sweet-woody-earthy, dry, bark like ones that while adding their own unique odor values also have superior fixative properties. Hundreds of aromatic molecules from different sources are permeating the sandalwood in order to interact with each other. Power, tenacity, richness, depth, and mystery increase at every level of this perfumes creation.
The challenge before those who practice this art and craft in its most refined form is to get them to balance so that the composition does not become muddled and that its complex essence reveals itself as something possessing a distinct character and personality. |
