Why Oud Perfume Makes the Perfect Eid Gift

Exchanging perfume gifts with loved ones during Eid symbolises generosity and kindness. Oud fragrances and other luxury perfumes are often chosen as Eid presents. Oud is a treasured ingredient in both fragrance culture and during Eid, where it’s often burned as incense. 

What is Oud?

Oud is derived from the tropical agar tree and can be found naturally growing in the Middle East. 

When the agar tree becomes infected by a mould, the tree produces a dark, dense and fragrant resin to protect itself. It’s the resin which becomes embedded in the tree that is the source of oud. Find out more about oud in perfume here.

To mark the occasion, we’re shining the spotlight on perfumes (For oud lovers, and everyone else too!) that will make a one-of-a-kind Eid gift. Whether it’s a scented Eid gift for her or for him, shop our stunning selection of Eid fragrances and oud perfumes at The Perfume Shop now.
