I have  gathered some links for those interested in perfumery, and its closely related field,  the fragrant healing art, aromatherapy. Some of these sites have hundreds of links within them, so I have no need to duplicate them here. You will be able to find anything you ever wanted to know about perfume, the industry, the history, safety, making your own, etc. Unless there is a demand for me to add more links, I think it would take the average person a very long time to get through all the information on these sites and their links. I have no commercial interest in any of these sites. Please introduce yourself to the world of Eastern use of attars in perfumery and healing with the Madini and Attar Bazaar sites. Most of all, enjoy yourself :-)

Enjoy 'wafting'  through the wonderful cyberworld of fragrance.
