AL Noman by Quram Attar, A Perfumed History for AL Noman The history of AL Noman Perfumes begins in the classic period of the "Mughal Empire"—or, more precisely, during the reign of "Shahjehan". It was a time of extravagance, marked by grand durbars, sumptuous feasts, architectural masterpieces and exquisite paintings. The Empire was in cultural overdrive, and Mughal royalty was its prime mover, pulling out the stops to serve its passion for self-indulgence. Among its myriad obsessions, attar enjoyed a special place. This uniquely Indian perfume, distilled and concocted by master perfumers, came in a range of scents to suit every occasion and mood. It could be worn in the boudoir or the banquet hall, by courtiers or courtesans.
