Oman’s perfumery tradition has given it a distinctive scent, imbued with the nuances of Arab culture. Its streets are filled with the aromas of spices and herbs such as cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and saffron, which are essential in both the markets and local cuisine. You can also smell the deep, sweet aroma of bākhūr, a mixture of resins and aromatic woods that are burned in braziers, or the salty touch in the air of coastal cities such as Muscat. And let’s not forget the scent of Omani coffee, lightly spiced with cardamom, which blends with the unmistakable, comforting smell of fresh dates.
But if anything perfumes the country’s wind and truly fills the air, it is the soft, fresh floral scent of the rose plantations of Jebel Akhdar and the burning Omani incense — Royal Hojari, so rare and precious that it is only found here — considered one of the best in the world for its high quality. This resin, which is used in many rituals and to perfume homes and shops, rises gently, blending in with the landscape and everyday life, as if it were one of the inhabitants of this country.
The essence of Oman is evident, olfactorily speaking, in Oman Luxury, an independent perfumery founded in 2012, which materializes through the search to find the true olfactory expression of the country of its founders, Muatasim, Muadh and Ahmed. For them, it is a journey of artistic expression, which has become a true perfumery expedition.
Using the finest local ingredients and artisanal techniques, as an exaltation of the country’s culture and heritage, their perfumes are inspired by Oman’s ancient history of incense and spice trade. This generous aromatic heritage has made Oman Luxury a brand capable of telling a story that can be seen, felt and smelt through exclusive creations that connect with the roots of its founders.
In short, Oman Luxury perfumes are a sensory experience, an olfactory narrative between the past and the present, which takes us
In essence, Oman Luxury perfumes are a sensory experience, an olfactory narrative between the past and the present, transporting us to the traditions and landscapes of this region.

A citrus overdose seasoned with spices, topped off with a balanced base that provides just the right intensity for summer days.
