Attar Parijat (Harsingar)
By House of Kannauj Heritage
Experience the divine essence of the heavens with Attar Parijat, a masterfully crafted fragrance from the House of Kannauj Heritage. Distilled from the delicate, night-blooming Harsingar (Parijat) flowers, this attar captures the fleeting, ethereal beauty of a bloom that awakens in the moonlight and gently carpets the earth by dawn.
Using the centuries-old, traditional Deg-Bhapka (hydro-distillation) method in Kannauj—India’s perfume capital—we have bottled the pure, unadulterated soul of this sacred flower.
The Fragrance Profile
Top Notes: Fresh, dewy night air and a burst of sweet, white floral radiance.
Heart Notes: Deep, honeyed jasmine with a uniquely soft, citrusy warmth from the flower's vibrant orange stem.
Base Notes: A grounding, soothing earthy finish that lingers beautifully on the skin and in the soul.
The Mythological Connection: A Gift from the Gods
In Hindu mythology, the Parijat is no ordinary tree; it is Kalpavriksha, a wish-granting divine entity.
The Ocean of Milk: Sacred scriptures tell us that the Parijat tree emerged during the Samudra Manthan (the churning of the cosmic ocean) alongside Goddess Lakshmi.
Lord Krishna’s Love: It is said that Lord Krishna battled the king of gods, Indra, to bring the Parijat tree from the heavenly realms of Swarga down to Earth to appease his beloved wife, Queen Satyabhama.
Wearing or using Attar Parijat is believed to connect the soul directly to these celestial origins, enveloping you in a fragrance once reserved exclusively for the gods.
Significance in Pooja and Religious Rituals
The Harsingar flower holds a remarkably unique and sacred place in Hindu worship.
The Only Fallen Offering: Unlike other flowers, which must be plucked directly from the branch to be considered pure, Parijat flowers are the only blooms permitted to be offered to deities after they have naturally fallen to the ground.
Divine Favor: The sweet, deeply calming aroma of this attar makes it highly auspicious for daily Pooja, meditation, and spiritual ceremonies. It is deeply favored by Lord Vishnu, Lord Shiva, and Goddess Lakshmi.
Aura of Purity: Applying a drop of Attar Parijat to your pulse points before prayer, or anointing deities and prayer beads with it, instantly purifies the environment, dispels negative energy, and deepens your meditative focus.
