Bakhoor Al Night 30 g — El Nabil
Bakhoor Al Night, “the bakhoor of the night” as its Arabic name says, is an incense from the house of El Nabil, presented in a glass jar with a gold lid, under a dark label with gold borders. The brand describes it as natural oud wood chips impregnated with fragrance, whose scent spreads lastingly through every room of the home.
Fragrance notes
- Scents stated by the brand: ambergris, nutmeg, teak wood
El Nabil does not detail a pyramid for this bakhoor.
Who it is for, and when
For anyone who prefers a warm, spicy bakhoor to a floral one: nutmeg adds a peppery touch, teak wood a dry base, ambergris a soft, slightly salty roundness. As its name suggests, it suits evenings, receptions and visits, as well as everyday use in small amounts. Its smoke also perfumes the fabrics in the room, curtains and cushions.
How to use
El Nabil recommends using it with an incense burner in which a lit charcoal disc is placed. When the charcoal is glowing and covered with a thin white ash, place a little bakhoor on top and let the smoke spread. According to the brand, the strength of the scent depends on the amount placed: start with one or two chips, then adjust to the size of the room. An electric burner designed for bakhoor also works.
