Banafa for Oud

Banafa for Oud is a Saudi Arabian fragrance house founded in 1987 in Jeddah, operating under the full company name Omar Banafa for Oud Ltd. The house is a market leader in the manufacture of luxury Arabian aromatic products, with manufacturing facilities in Jeddah and Bahrain built to international production standards. Its catalogue spans oud, incense, cosmetics, essential oils, and both traditional Arabic and French-inspired perfumes, serving wholesale and retail customers across Saudi Arabia — with branches in Riyadh, Dammam, Dubai, Yemen, and Bahrain. The house's identity is rooted in the oud tradition of the Arabian Peninsula, a fragrance culture in which the quality of raw agarwood and the skill of its processing are the primary measures of prestige. Banafa for Oud sources materials with rigorous attention to provenance and quality, positioning itself not as a fashion-oriented niche house but as a custodian of authentic Gulf aromatic heritage for a clientele that wears fragrance as a daily cultural expression.
