Oud
Agarwood, the dark resin at the heart of Gulf perfumery. Burned as chips for its smoke, or distilled into an oil worn on the skin. The house is built around it.
Maison Almas
A house of oud, attar and layered perfume.
Concentrated oils, deep oud and perfumes composed to be worn in layers, the way the Gulf has always worn scent.

Attar
Perfume oils without alcohol, dabbed on the wrist and behind the ear. Close to the skin, slow to leave it.
Layered perfume
Sprays composed to sit over an attar, not against it. Worn alone, they still hold their own.
Wear it in layers.
Start closest to the skin and finish in the air around you. Each layer changes the one beneath it, so two people never smell quite the same.
On the skin
A drop of attar on the pulse points.
Over it
A perfume sprayed once the oil has settled.
Around you
Oud smoke from the mabkhara, passed through clothes and hair.
