Scent is one of the strongest triggers of memory. The fragrance a groom wears on his wedding day will remind him, his bride and his family of that day for years. In the Gulf, the groom’s scent is usually a layered ritual: bakhoor on the kandura, oud oil on the skin, and a signature perfume on top.
Choosing the scent
- Classic and regal: الشيخ زايد, with saffron, rose, amber and oud.
- Fresh but elegant: دبي شيخ, grapefruit and jasmine over woods and ambergris.
- Something rare: the المجموعة الذهبية, such as دجور الخليج.
The wedding-day ritual
- Perfume the kandura and ghutra with مخلط ملكي bakhoor.
- Apply دهن العود الذهبي to wrists and neck.
- Spray your signature perfume on top.
- Carry a الميني to refresh before photos.

أسئلة شائعة
A rich oriental scent with oud and amber, such as Sheikh Zayed, is a classic choice. Grooms who prefer something lighter often choose a fresh-woody scent like Dubai Sheikh.
It does not need to match, but the two should not clash. Many couples choose complementary scents, such as an oud scent for him and a floral-amber scent for her.
