Bakhoor is a traditional incense made by blending pieces of oud wood with essential oils and resins; when burned, it fills the air with a deep, warm fragrance. In the Arabian Peninsula it is an indispensable ritual of welcoming guests and of preparing for Friday and Eid. The RotaNur Bakhoor and Incense Burner Set brings this tradition into your home by pairing a decorative metal incense burner with a box of oud-scented bakhoor.
Fragrance Profile
- Opening: Lightly sweet, resinous smoke
- Heart: Oud wood, rose
- Base: Amber, musk, sandalwood
As the bakhoor burns, it leaves a warm scent that spreads slowly through the room and clings lightly to fabrics and curtains. A few pieces of bakhoor are enough to scent a medium-sized room. You can easily adjust the intensity of the fragrance through the number of pieces you burn and how long you burn them.
Key Features
- Decorative, well-balanced metal incense burner
- Oud-scented bakhoor pieces in a lidded box
- For homes, offices, guest rooms and masjids
- Easily adjustable fragrance intensity
- Presented in a gift box, ready to send

How to Use
- Place the incense burner on a flat, heat-resistant surface away from flammable materials.
- Put 1–2 pieces of bakhoor on a suitable charcoal or an electric heater.
- Once the smoke begins to rise, wait for the room to fill with the scent; add more pieces if needed.
- Use the incense burner out of the reach of children and pets, and never leave it unattended while it is burning.
- After use, air the room briefly and wait for the incense burner to cool down.
Use on Your Umrah and Hajj Journey
According to Hanafi jurisprudence, wearing a pleasant scent before entering ihram is recommended (mustahab); once you are in ihram, however, applying fragrance to the body, the ihram garments or the place where you sleep is among the prohibitions of ihram. For this reason, use your fragrance before making the intention for ihram, after your ghusl or wudu, and do not apply it again while in ihram. During ihram, we recommend choosing unscented personal care products suitable for ihram. Once you are out of ihram, you can use your fragrance with peace of mind for your prayers in Makkah and Madinah, and on Fridays and Eid days. For detailed information on this subject, you can refer to the statements of Diyanet (Türkiye’s Presidency of Religious Affairs) on the prohibitions of ihram.
Who Is It For?
Ideal for those who want to bring the tradition of hospitality into their home, lovers of Eastern fragrances, and anyone looking for an elegant, practical set to give as a gift on returning from Hajj or Umrah. It is also a much-appreciated gift for the home.
