Incienso Bakhour de Dubái

Bakhoor is an incense in chips: pieces of wood soaked in perfume oils, which are left to smoke for a few minutes to scent a room, a fabric or a garment. Sixteen references here, in 40 to 80 g jars, from Ard Al Zaafaran, Banafa For Oud and Nabeel.

How to use it

Two methods. On charcoal: light a tablet in a burner, wait until it is covered in white ash, then place one or two chips on it; too early, and the smoke turns acrid. On an electric burner: place the chips directly on the plate, with no charcoal or flame, for a softer smoke that is easier to dose.

Five to ten minutes are enough for a room. Never leave a burner unattended, and air the room after use. Burners are gathered in the incense burner collection.

Which scent to choose

• Bakhoor Oud Mood 40 g: woody oud, the house classic.
• Bakhoor Pure Musk 80 g: soft and musky, less smoky.
• Bakhoor Yara 40 g: fruity floral, lighter.
• Oud Al Khanjar 50 g — Banafa For Oud: the densest, for large rooms.
