Collectie: Oriental Perfumes

Oriental is perfumery's oldest family. Moreover, amber, vanilla, incense, musk, benzoin, and labdanum have been blended across the Middle East for centuries before the term existed. Some in the industry now call this category "Amber" instead. The compositions remain the same. Furthermore, this is the family where Arabian perfumers hold the strongest advantage. The materials are native to the Gulf. The traditions are local. European houses learned oriental perfumery by looking East. Consequently, an Arabian oriental often feels more authentic than a French one because the recipe started here. However, orientals are not all heavy. The category spans from soft amber-vanillas that anyone can wear to dense resinous blends that fill a room with a single spray. As a result, cold weather suits the heavier end. Warmer days suit the lighter end. Our oriental collection covers both. Explore our oriental perfumes at ZAOUD.
