Last updated: 16 October 2026

The short answer: In our store, as of 16 October 2026, 15 in-stock products from 4 brands carry the word “Attar”, “perfume oil” or “perfumed oil” in their names. The clearest are eight Amouage attars, each described with the type “oil perfume” and the size 12 ml, priced at 183.150 KWD (195.000 KWD for Oud Ulya), and four Ex Nihilo perfume oils at 164.250 KWD each. A scented body oil is a skincare product and is not part of this count.

What does the word Attar mean in our product names?

At Amouage the word appears in eight single perfumes and one collection. The descriptions of the eight attars write “oil perfume” in the type field and “12 ml” in the size field, and five of them state 100%: four with the phrase “100% pure perfume oil”, such as Amouage Rose Aqor Attar and Amouage Oud Ulya Attar, and Amouage Suede Ibri Attar with “a 100% oil concentration”. The description of Amouage Vanilla Barka Attar calls it “a pure perfume oil”, and that of Amouage Tonka Misfah Attar “an oil-based perfume”.

The description of Amouage Attar Collection calls it “a luxury box holding six full-size oil perfumes”, priced at 727.350 KWD. Hind Al Oud Zayed Attar Parfum, 50ml carries the word Attar only in its English name; its description does not say it is an oil, and it comes in 50 ml at 122.450 KWD.
