How to create and buy your own perfume in Dubai
The Perfume Souk has a very large assortment, so here you can easily find the right fragrance. However, if you are looking for a truly unique smell, ask the owner of the perfume shop to create a new fragrance - one that suits only you.

aromas, Dubai

Such kind of shopping is much more interesting than buying an already-made bottle of perfume :) Earlier it was considered a luxury item, but now everyone can afford a personal fragrance.

How to do?

1. Come to the Perfume Souk in the Daira area up the Sikkat Al Khali (Sikkat Al Khali) Street. The fragrances of flavors and incense will lead you to the right place.

2. Enter the old market full of jars with different inscriptions in English and Arabic and ask the store owner to create your own fragrance.

3. He will pick about a dozen of smells, which ideally open on your skin, than the perfumer will mix them up - and a special, unique aroma just for you is ready!
