SERENITY
Omanluxury’s Serenity is a fragrance tribute to the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, located in the capital city of Muscat. This mosque is the largest in Oman, and since its founding in 2001, it has awed visitors with its imposing and intricately detailed Islamic architecture, from its dome to the massive crystal-and-gold chandelier that graces its prayer hall. Serenity, developed by perfumer Pierre Negrin, balances a selection of notes associated with traditional Arabian perfumery, including oud, saffron, cedar, and olibanum. But the key themes here are cumin and leather, which add spice to Serenity and keep its complex structure earthbound.

ROYAL INCENSE
For six thousand years, Oman has been famed for its locally produced frankincense. To this day, incense made with this precious resin is Oman’s favorite way to scent interiors and clothing—it could even be called the sultanate’s signature scent. Omanluxury’s Royal Incense, created by perfumer Philippine Courtière, is a sumptuous and refined interpretation of frankincense. Its highlights of pink pepper, lily flower, and geranium introduce a heart of frankincense whose aromatic quality is balanced by a lush honey note and a smooth amber drydown. This is a luxurious way to imagine frankincense’s golden-hued “tears,” no matter how close or far you actually are from the Boswellia sacra trees that thrive in Oman’s arid inland regions.
OUD AQUILARIA
If there’s any fragrant material that evokes Oman culture as much as frankincense does, it’s oud—the rare, dark resin that the Aquilaria malaccensis evergreen tree emits to protect itself from parasitic fungi. Omanluxury’s Oud Aquilaria, named for that tree, was developed by master perfumer Dominique Ropion as an homage to this costly ingredient and its traditional pairing with rose in Middle Eastern perfumery. In Ropion’s composition, oud is crowned with a touch of apple for a fruity effect, then enhanced with notes of clove, rosemary, and sage to evoke the historical networks of the spice trade. The oud itself plays a rich harmony with a classical rose accord, backed by earthy notes of labdanum resin and patchouli, plus some Ambroxan for a contemporary finish.
