Khayal - The Vision

Khayal is the trade name of a 100% foreign owned Emirati company and the first Oriental perfumery with a Mediterranean twist in the world.


Dedicated to high quality and traditional craftsmanship, decades of perfumery history and expertise were encapsulated into our exclusive formulas composed by world-wide renowned and award-winning Arabian and French perfumers.


We produce extremely concentrated fragrances using rare essences and a high percentage of natural ingredients.

Our extracts are a blend of Oriental and Mediterranean essential oils resulting in unique products that cover a wider variety of notes than mass-market or designer perfumes, with a more complex and long-lasting sillage.


Formulated using a meticulous selection of fine ingredients, Khayal’s perfume extracts are masterfully produced in our United Arab Emirates factories.

DISCOVERING, LEARNING AND FALLING IN LOVE WITH THE MIDDLE EASTERN PERFUMERY CULTURE and heritage

After discovering the local perfumery production resources and heritage, we wanted to revolutionize the world of perfumery with our unique creations and to reflect a perfect cultural mix through our perfumes, the strongness of the oriental essential oils combined with the freshness of the Mediterranean scents.


Over 70 years of perfumery history and expertise were applied to our exclusive formulas creation.


Perfumes have a strong impact on our memory and well-being, and our objective is to create exclusive fragrances that would instantly take you to that special moment in time or would simply mark your unmatching individuality through day-to-day use.


Our vision shortly translated into proudly launching the first Oriental perfumery with a Mediterranean twist in the world.

Did You Know?

  • Contrary to what many people believe, the first perfumes didn’t originate in the western European countries, but in the Middle East.
  • Oriental perfumes are based on natural oil extracts that are highly concentrated (floral, oud, musk). As a result, oriental scents, from Gulf fragrances to Far Eastern territories such as China, India and South Asia, have a longer sillage than the modern western perfumes.
  • Oriental fragrances usually use exotic and unusual notes, including vanilla, cinnamon, orris, jasmine, orchid and orange blossom. For this reason, they often smell beautifully indulgent and luxurious while Mediterranean are mostly flowery and citrus fragrances.
  • Oriental perfumes are the result of a manual multi layering of attars that create a unique blend while western perfumes are mostly focusing on 3 notes, masterfully blended to create floral, fresh, spicy, and sweet fragrances.
  • Safe for the skin and crafted with traditional methods, oriental perfumes contain natural essential oils that may offer some aroma therapeutic benefits such as relaxation and mood enhancement.
