Discover the brand with over 500 unique perfumes that has conquered 125+ countries – including Norway
Some brands copy. Others are inspired. Fragrance World does something entirely different – they democratize luxury. With over 35 years of experience in the perfume industry and a portfolio of more than 500 products, this UAE-based brand has become a global powerhouse, making designer fragrances accessible to all Norwegians.
But what is the secret behind Fragrance World's enormous global success? Let me take you into the giant of this fragrance world.
The History Behind Fragrance World
Fragrance World was founded in 2003 by the visionary entrepreneur Mr. Poland Moosa Haji in Deira, UAE. But the story actually begins earlier. In 1988, Moosa established his first trading company, Al Ghuroob, which dealt in clothing, perfumes, cosmetics, and electronics.
As perfumes quickly became the most popular product, he made the courageous choice to focus exclusively on fragrance production. In 2005, he launched the exclusive line "Fragrance World," followed by the premium line "French Avenue" in 2012.
From Humble Beginnings to Global Success
Today, Fragrance World exports to over 125 countries on six continents, with an impressive annual growth of 50% in Western markets. In 2022, the company achieved exports of 300 million AED, with continued strong growth.
What Makes Fragrance World Unique?
Three Brands Under One Roof
Fragrance World distinguishes itself by offering three distinct brands that cover different needs:
Fragrance World - Accessible luxury fragrances for everyday use
French Avenue - Premium line inspired by Parisian elegance (approx. 90 products)
Maison Des Parfums - Exclusive artisan perfumery where luxury meets artistic craftsmanship
Collaboration with the World's Best Perfumers
Fragrance World collaborates with renowned perfumers such as Maurizio Cerizza, Julien Rasquinet, David Benedek, and Shinichiro Oba. This ensures that each fragrance is professionally composed with both technical expertise and creative vision.
Unbeatable Price-Quality Ratio
While designer perfumes can cost anywhere from 1000-3000 NOK, you get comparable quality from Fragrance World at a fraction of the price. This makes luxury fragrances accessible to everyone, without compromising on quality.
