Technical Notes

  • Data conflict (please review) — This record lists Calendula officinalis (pot marigold), while our genda attar (1607) lists Tagetes erecta (African marigold) — different genera, though both are Asteraceae. This matters for safety: Tagetes material is phototoxic; Calendula is not. Please confirm which marigold this SKU actually uses so the caution can be set correctly.
  • Claims note — The source claimed it helps reduce stress; reframed as traditional calming and wellbeing uses.
  • Sandalwood base note — Attars laid on a sandalwood (Santalum album) base carry a CITES-listed material; responsible sourcing and documentation matter for cross-border trade.
  • Attar note — An attar (ittar) is a traditional alcohol-free, oil-based perfume, hydro-distilled in copper degs by the age-old deg-bhapka method and received into a natural base, classically pure sandalwood oil.
  • Use / evidence note — Uses are traditional and for fragrance, ritual and wellbeing; they are not medical claims.
