Oud Perfume — Dubai & UAE
Oud Perfume FAQ
Oud perfume is a fragrance made using oud oil — a rare, resinous substance extracted from Aquilaria trees infected with a specific mould. The tree produces this dark, fragrant resin as a defence mechanism, and when distilled, it yields one of the most prized ingredients in perfumery. Oud has been central to Arabian fragrance culture for over a thousand years, valued for its deep, woody, and smoky character. At Mayf Perfumes, our oud EDPs capture this tradition in a modern, long-lasting Eau de Parfum format.
Oud perfume prices in Dubai range widely — from budget blends to ultra-premium attars costing thousands of dirhams. At Mayf Perfumes, our Arabian oud EDPs start from AED 99, offering genuine oud quality at an accessible price point. All prices are displayed clearly on each product card with no hidden fees. Fast delivery is available across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and the wider UAE.
Al Oud (also written as Al Oudh or simply Oud) is the Arabic term for agarwood — the resinous heartwood that forms inside Aquilaria trees and is used to produce oud oil and oud incense. In Gulf culture, Al Oud is burned as bakhoor (incense) and worn as perfume, and it remains one of the most culturally significant fragrance ingredients in the Arab world. Mayf Perfumes' Arabian Oud collection draws directly from this tradition.
Oud fragrance is made from oud oil — distilled from the resin-saturated heartwood of Aquilaria trees — blended with complementary ingredients such as rose, amber, musk, sandalwood, and spices. The exact composition varies by fragrance house and style. Mayf Perfumes' oud EDPs combine oud oil with oriental accords including amber, spiced woods, and warm musks to create deep, long-lasting compositions suited to the Gulf climate.
Traditional oud attars are oil-based — pure fragrance oil with no alcohol, applied directly to the skin. Mayf Perfumes' Arabian Oud collection uses an Eau de Parfum (EDP) formulation, which is alcohol-based with a high concentration of fragrance oil (typically 15–20%). This gives stronger projection and sillage compared to oil-based attars, while maintaining the deep, resinous character of authentic oud. EDPs are also easier to apply and more suitable for everyday wear.
