The UK has fallen in love with Arabian perfumes — and for good reason. They’re bold, long-lasting, beautifully layered, and offer something Western perfumes often lack: richness, identity, and mystery. Whether you're walking through Birmingham's Bullring, driving through Manchester, or stepping out in London’s Mayfair, the scent of oud, amber, and rose is more popular than ever.
At Zamoori, we specialise in bringing that Middle Eastern fragrance magic to UK fragrance lovers. Whether you’re into sweet ouds, creamy musks, or regal rose blends, we’ve got something for everyone — all handpicked from trusted brands like Lattafa, Ajmal, Ard Al Zaafaran, Rayhaan, Arabian Oud, Maison Oud, and more.
Here are some of the best Arabian perfumes for men and women in the UK right now.
🔥 For Men: Rich, Confident, and Long-Lasting
1. Rayhaan – Oud Al Mubakhar
A classic Arabian oud scent that leans masculine with smoky incense and deep resin. It’s strong, spiritual, and perfect for formal wear or Jummah Fridays.
2. Ajmal – Dahn Al Oudh Arzan
For the true oud purist. This is traditional agarwood through and through. No sweetness, no fillers. Just pure, powerful oud in all its glory.
3. Lattafa – Fakhar for Men
A modern take on an Arabic scent — lavender, tonka bean, and woods. Strong yet wearable, this one performs well in both business and casual settings.
4. Maison Oud – Oud Royale
For the guy who wants to smell exclusive. Oud Royale is a luxurious oud-based blend with pepper, amber, and wood — refined, classy, and long-lasting.
5. Ard Al Zaafaran – Oud 24 Hours
Dark chocolate meets oud and florals. This one’s intense and dramatic, often compared to Tom Ford’s Black Orchid, but with a deeper Middle Eastern spin.
💎 For Women: Elegant, Bold, and Addictive
6. Lattafa – Yara
A stunningly sweet and creamy scent with hints of vanilla and soft florals. Light enough for everyday wear but unique enough to get compliments.
7. Swiss Arabian – Shaghaf Oud
Sweet rose, saffron, oud, and praline. This one’s bold and feminine with excellent projection. Smells like it costs triple the price.
8. Ajmal – Sacred Love
If you like powdery florals and musk, Sacred Love is a safe, beautiful option. Elegant and romantic, this is a go-to daily fragrance.
9. Maison Alhambra – Baroque Rouge 540
An inspired scent that mirrors Baccarat Rouge 540 with strong projection and sophistication. Warm, amber-sweet, and highly complimented.
10. Fragrance World – Velour
Velour is a plush, soft floral gourmand with subtle oud undertones. A hidden gem in the UK market, perfect for layering or wearing alone.
💼 Unisex Favourites That Work for Both
• Lattafa – Raghba
Vanilla, oud, and sugar. A signature unisex scent — rich, sweet, and warm. The UK fragrance scene can’t get enough of it.
• Maison Oud – Amber Musk
Balanced and smooth, this oud-musk blend wears beautifully on both men and women. Creamy, warm, and undeniably elegant.
• Oud Elixir – Royal Oud
A modern oud-spice blend that fits any formal occasion. Great for those who want something bold and regal without going too traditional.
