From oud to sandalwood, Arab perfumes and ingredients are the only way to unlock new bounds of “smelling expensive”.<\/p>\n

If you aren’t chronically online, like we are, “smelling expensive” is a TikTok term for smelling interesting and captivating. Long gone are the days when everyone wants generic sweet scents that last a few hours and then dissipate throughout the day. Now fragrance is an act of personal style, it’s a mark of who you are and what you want to tell the world.<\/p>\n

Arab perfumes have long held the reigns in the fragrance world thanks to their complex ingredients and unique, powerful blends. Here, GRAZIA rounds up some of our favourites from long-lasting musks to captivating sweet scents and – of course – the ultimate ouds.<\/p>\n
