Bakhoor

We source our bakhoor directly from a producer in Oman. This enables us to offer authentic bakhoor. Our bakhoor usually contains larger pieces of oud. Oud (Asian fragrant wood) is one of the most important fragrances in the Arab world. The woods used come from Asia. Due to the prices, it can be ruled out that this is wild-growing, old agarwood; but rather that various woods are used, e.g. from Cambodia and Vietnam. Here you will find various types of oud (oud with various additives).

We currently offer a sample pack with 12 different types of bakhoor from our new producer. We look forward to hearing which scents you find most appealing. We will then place an order accordingly.

We offer several varieties of bakhoor in 40 g jars.

Bakhoor are incense blends made from various woods, aromatic oils, resins and flowers. These blends are mainly made from natural ingredients, although some oils are also produced artificially. (For example, natural rose oil is not included due to its high price – this is the case with virtually all bakhoor varieties sold by other shops). Nevertheless, our bakhoor is of very high quality -  There are very beautiful and distinctive fragrances for different tastes and occasions.

Due to popular demand, we now offer two varieties made from high-quality woods and natural oils. These are labelled as natural bakhoor. We also offer a sample pack with two samples, each weighing approximately 4 grams, for two incense burnings. Try it if you are very sensitive or if you are interested in pure natural fragrances. It is a special fragrance!

We are trying to procure bakhoor that is not only comparable to the previous model in name, but hopefully also in scent and overall appearance. However, this is not so easy when importing from Oman. Bakhoor was originally an incense ritual practised by Bedouins in the Arab world. It involves dipping a mostly dark mass of compressed oud wood chips into perfume oils made from incense, flowers, resins and/or sandalwood.
