Description : Fragrance, from time immemorial, pleased living beings and supernatural spirits, and evoked emotional, spiritual, and intellectual inspiration within the human soul, fuelling the imagination in man to exceed and excel in his higher faculties towards achievement.


With the growth of civilisations the world over, such as the Harappan civilisation of North-West India, of China and South-East Asia, the Sumerian civilisation, the ancient Middle East and Egypt, and of the South American Mayan civilisations and so on, emperors and kings patronised discovery and acquisition of myriad fragrances from far off lands and peoples.

Courageous adventurers and pharmacists set sail and braved hostile territories and inclement weather. Valuables, precious stones, and even gold were traded and bartered by explorers and even pirates in expeditions over land, sea, mountain, and forest to seek and acquire the exotic scents. Spies were sent to acquire secrets of fragrances by any means.
