Suhad Perfumes / سهاد
Kuwaiti perfumery from the Lady of Fragrance.
Suhad Perfumes is a Kuwaiti perfume house founded in 1996 by Suhad Al-Qenaei, often referred to in Gulf press as the "Lady of Fragrance." The flagship scent, Suad, was created in honour of Al-Qenaei's mother and remains a signature of the brand; the wider catalogue has expanded across the Gulf and into UAE distribution through Paris Gallery. The house works in collaboration with international perfumers — including Christian Carbonnel and Chris Maurice — to translate traditional Arabian materials such as oud, rose, saffron and amber into compositions with a more contemporary, internationally legible structure. Bottles tend toward ornate, jewelled presentations in line with Khaleeji gifting culture. Suhad Perfumes suits wearers exploring Gulf-style perfumery who want a heritage Kuwaiti name rather than a UAE-led brand.
