Bakhoor Oudi Incense 40g

What It Is

  • It’s a 40 g bar of bakhoor made by Ard Al Zaafaran, called Oudi

  • Designed for burning over charcoal (traditional burners) or in electric bakhoor/incense burners. 


Scent / Fragrance Profile

While there is no full published note‑list (or at least not widely available) for Oudi by Ard Al Zaafaran, descriptions from sellers give a pretty good picture:

  • Primary Imperative: Deep, woody notes of oud / oudi — this is the central theme. “Oudi” implies agarwood‑type scent (rich, resinous, earthy, smoky). 

  • Undertones: The description mentions “spicy and sweet undertones” alongside the wood. So expect some warmth from spices and a little sweetness to balance the depth. 

  • Feel / Atmosphere: It is marketed as luxurious, elegant, warm. Meant to evoke that Middle Eastern rich perfume feeling. 


Performance & Experience

  • Longevity: Because it’s a richer bakhoor with wood/oud base, it will likely hold its scent for a decent duration — lingering in rooms, furniture, fabrics after burning. Sellers say it gives “long‑lasting and enchanting scent.” 

  • Sillage / Projection: Moderate to strong. Using charcoal will give it a stronger throw; electric burners will be more subtle, but still noticeable.

  • Smoke & Heat: As with most bakhoor with oud, it can get dense if a large piece is used or the heat is high. It may open with sharper or more intense woody smoke at first. Better to start with a smaller piece.


Best Uses & Suitability

  • Mood & Setting: Ideal for evenings, gatherings, special occasions, or whenever you want a mood of warmth, elegance, traditional richness. Works well in living rooms, majlis‑style rooms, or any space you want to feel luxurious.

  • Personal Taste: Good if you enjoy the smell of oud or agarwood; if that’s a feature you like, this will likely “hit” you well. If you prefer something light or citrus or very floral, this may feel too heavy/intense.

  • Care: Use sparingly at first — a small piece on hot charcoal, allow the top smoke to settle, and then more if needed. Using in well‑ventilated spaces helps prevent the scent from becoming overwhelming.
