IT’S OUD

Scents of My Life

“From my earliest memories, or you could say the “scent of my life”, it is and always has been oud. I became familiar with this raw material at a young age when I would spend a lot of my time in my family oud distillation plant. It is my love of oud which brought me to the perfumery Industry. I learned very early on that distillation of oud is connected to my life path and my soul.”

Vision

MD ABDULLAH AL ROMAN “With increasing demand for ethically sourced natural perfumery materials we can encourage farmers to renew their interest in traditional production and growing methods in order that they can both support themselves, their families, their villages and the environment.”

“My main vision is to inspire and encourage commercial fragrance & skincare brands to use more natural and plant based materials. I believe there is a way that we can offer quality products while also preserving nature and saving farmers.

In order to save both the environment and artisan perfumery heritage we need to encourage brands to go back to naturals and follow a more ethical path. It is my dream to help protect the biodiversity of the natural environment while saving farmers’ livelihoods through my work and knowledge.
