Perfume Souk
Follow your nose to the Perfume Souk and you will discover new aromas before you even arrive. Fragrance is a key hallmark of Arabian life, represented by the exotic array of scents you’ll pick up wherever you go. Some are mild, others more evident, while some are particularly potent – but each one will draw you in with a natural sense of inquisition as you decide which one is right for you.
Dubai’s Perfume Souk will draw your attention in multiple directions, with every changing breeze likely to divert you to its piquant source. Across hundreds of different stalls you will find thousands of traditional Arabian scents which can be tested via incense and can even be purchased as a stick, powder, crystal, rock or wood element.
Learn all about oud and bakhoor and the many intricacies of these fragrant materials. For a truly unique scent, you can even ask for a fully personalised aroma to be created based on your skin type and personality. You can return home armed with your very own fragrance to wow your friends.
