Svara | Ratri - Oud, Vanilla and Coffee

Topical magnesium oil is considered safe for regular use for most people, and many wellness routines use it daily as part of a skin or stress-management ritual. A small percentage of users experience mild tingling on first use as skin adjusts — this typically fades with repeated application. If you're pregnant, nursing, or on medication affecting electrolyte or kidney function, check with a doctor before daily use.

Alcohol-free perfume typically lasts 4–6 hours on skin, slightly shorter than alcohol-based sprays but with a smoother fade instead of an abrupt drop-off. Svara's oil-and-magnesium base is designed to cling to skin's natural warmth, so scent lingers in a soft, close-wearing way — reapply once midday for all-day coverage.

No — Svara is formulated 100% alcohol-free, using an Ayurvedic botanical oil base infused with magnesium instead of ethanol or synthetic denatured alcohol. This means no drying effect on skin, no sharp initial "sting," and a scent that develops more slowly and stays closer to the body throughout wear.

Svara perfumes are built on Ayurvedic botanical oils and extracts — ingredients like sandalwood, mogra, saffron, and vetiver — combined with a magnesium oil infusion, with no synthetic alcohol carrier. Full ingredient lists are available on each product page; if you have known fragrance allergies, check the ingredient panel and patch-test before full application.

Oil-based, alcohol-free perfumes carry a slightly higher staining risk on light or delicate fabrics than alcohol-based sprays, since oil takes longer to fully absorb. Apply to skin rather than fabric, let it dry for 30–60 seconds before dressing, and avoid direct application on silk or other oil-sensitive materials.

Avoid applying directly over broken skin, open cuts, or active eczema/psoriasis flare-ups, and skip application if you've had a prior reaction to any listed botanical ingredient. If you're pregnant, nursing, or managing a condition affecting kidney function or electrolyte balance, check with a doctor before regular use, since the formula includes topical magnesium. When in doubt, patch-test on the inner wrist and wait 24 hours before full application.

Yes — alcohol-free, oil-based perfume layers well with unscented body lotion or oil underneath to extend wear, since a hydrated base holds fragrance longer than dry skin. Avoid layering with other strongly scented alcohol-based products, which can overpower or clash with Svara's botanical notes.
