Velvet Oud Bakhoor Incense 100g Lattafa

Velvet Oud Bakhoor by Lattafa brings one of the house's most loved oriental compositions into your home in its most traditional form. This 100g box of fragrant incense carries the same plush character as the Velvet Oud eau de parfum, translating cardamom, patchouli, noble oud and golden amber into slow curls of scented smoke. Bakhoor has perfumed Arabian homes for centuries, burned to welcome guests, mark special occasions and lend rooms a sense of quiet luxury. Lattafa's version stays true to that heritage while keeping the price honest, making it an easy way to bring genuine Middle Eastern atmosphere into a British living room.

The Scent Journey

The Opening

Place a piece of bakhoor onto a lit charcoal disc or an electric burner and the first wisps rise almost immediately. The opening moments are bright and spiced, with the cardamom and bergamot facets of the Velvet Oud composition cutting through the smoke and announcing themselves across the room within minutes.

The Heart

As the bakhoor warms through, the heart of the fragrance unfolds. Violet leaf and earthy patchouli give the smoke a rounded, velvety depth, and the room begins to fill with that unmistakable oriental richness that no candle or plug-in diffuser can imitate. This is the stage guests notice the moment they walk through the door.

The Dry Down

Once the burning is finished, the scent that lingers is the true reward. Suede, oud, amber musk and oakmoss settle into curtains, cushions and clothing, leaving a warm, resinous trail that can still be caught on soft furnishings the following day.

Fragrance Notes

• Top: cardamom, bergamot
• Heart: violet leaf, patchouli
• Base: suede, oud, amber musk, oakmoss

Longevity and Performance

A single small piece of bakhoor will scent an average room for several hours, with the residual aroma lasting well beyond that on fabrics and upholstery. The 100g box contains enough incense for many burning sessions, so used a piece or two at a time it will comfortably see you through weeks of regular use. Burned on charcoal the projection is generous and fills larger spaces; an electric burner gives a gentler, more controlled release that suits smaller rooms.

When to Use It

Velvet Oud Bakhoor is suited to autumn and winter evenings when the warmth of oud and amber feels most at home, though many households burn it year round before guests arrive, after cleaning day or simply to unwind at the end of the week. It is a lovely companion for Ramadan and Eid gatherings, weddings, and quiet Sunday afternoons alike. It can also be used the traditional way to perfume clothing, letting garments absorb the smoke before an evening out.
