Amouage Perfumery & Visitor Centre
أمواج
The factory of Amouage, a luxury perfume brand treasured as a national icon. Free guided tours explain frankincense notes and hand-filling processes, and perfumes can be bought on site.
Amouage was founded in 1983 with the support of the Omani royal family and is known for high-end perfumes made from Arabian ingredients such as frankincense and rose. The factory in Seeb has a visitor centre offering free guided tours of about 15 to 20 minutes. Through glass windows you can watch perfumers at work and see the hand-filling and packaging process, and learn about raw materials such as frankincense. The showroom lets you sample and buy perfumes. It is generally open Sunday to Thursday from about 08:30 to 16:30, and is mostly closed on Fridays and Saturdays, so check in advance. It is about a 10-minute drive from the airport, which makes it a good stop before departure.
