Scent of the Dunes: Bringing Authentic Middle Eastern Perfumes to the UK

Scent of the Dunes was born from a personal passion for fragrance. What started as the journey of a perfume enthusiast exploring the world of oud, musk, and amber has grown into a trusted UK-based store dedicated to making authentic Middle Eastern perfumes accessible to everyone.

Why Middle Eastern Perfumes?

Perfumes from the Middle East are unlike any other. They are bold, long-lasting, and crafted with ingredients like oud, amber, rose, musk, and exotic spices. These notes tell stories of tradition, luxury, and artistry that stretch back centuries. Unlike many mainstream designer perfumes, Arabian fragrances are richer, more complex, and better value—making them a favorite for true fragrance lovers.

Our Mission at Scent of the Dunes

Our mission is simple: to bring the most loved Middle Eastern perfume houses to the UK market at prices that everyone can enjoy. We work with renowned brands like Lattafa, Rasasi, Afnan, Al Haramain, Ahmed Al Maghribi, French Avenue and more. Every perfume we feature is carefully selected for quality, authenticity, and uniqueness.

From Enthusiast to Curator

The founder of Scent of the Dunes grew up surrounded by the fragrance culture of the Middle East. Over the years, this passion turned into a collection of over 50 perfumes and countless hours spent studying notes, blends, and layering. Scent of the Dunes is the natural next step—a way to share this passion and help others discover the magic of Arabian perfumery.
