In Reply to: Mahlabiyah Oil ? posted by Sue on March 27, 1998 at 04:03:30:
"Mahlabiyah oil" is manufactured or distributed by Bhaiji Attarwale,
Delhi-110 006. It is a silver box with a red drawing of a mehandied
hand. Underneath, something is written in Sanskrit, which I assume is
translated to "Mehandi oil", also written in English. I've seen it
available in Indian stores. I can't figure out what the oil blends
are. It smells like citronella or turpentine, and it's orange. I
don't know what Mahlabiyah, or Maklahbiah, really is or what it means.
I wonder if it's a made up name. If you find out what the oils are,
PLEASE, please let me know. Just post it up here, or I'll feel really
dissed. Thanks, and good luck!!
