Ruh Khus Attar Oil – Vetiver (Rooh Khas) from Kannauj
Ruh Khus Attar Oil, also known as Rooh Khas, Rooh Khus, and Ruh Khas, is a traditional alcohol-free Indian vetiver perfume oil crafted from the aromatic roots of vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides). Produced using traditional hydrodistillation methods in Kannauj, India, this distinctive attar showcases the naturally green, earthy, grassy, rooty, woody, and subtly smoky character of khus.
The fragrance opens with fresh green vetiver, creating a crisp, grassy, and earthy introduction. At the heart, deeper herbal and root-like facets emerge, revealing the distinctive botanical character of vetiver. As Ruh Khus settles, woody and subtly smoky undertones provide depth and a smooth, grounding finish.
Unlike conventional perfumes built around multiple contrasting fragrance accords, Ruh Khus places vetiver itself at the center of the composition. Its distinctive botanical character makes it ideal for vetiver lovers, traditional attar enthusiasts, and anyone searching for an authentic Kannauj-style khus fragrance.
