What you can expect for under 100 AED
The collection mixes two kinds of perfume:
- Arabic and regional brands at their everyday price. Lattafa and Meraki sell 100ml eau de parfums at prices designer brands can’t match.
- Designer and international labels on discount. Chopard, Davidoff, Roberto Cavalli and Elizabeth Arden appear here because of big markdowns. Several of these picks are 50% to 72% below their regular price.
Both types are original products. Some Arabic perfumes are inspired by famous scents, but they’re sold under their own brand names. That makes them alternatives, not fakes.

How to choose the right budget perfume for UAE weather
The heat makes perfume project more and fade faster. Heavy, sweet scents can feel too much at midday. A simple guide:
- Hot days and outdoor plans: fresh or fruity scents like Roberto Cavalli Florence or Asdaaf Ameerat Al Arab Black.
- Office and air-conditioned spaces: soft florals and musks like 5th Avenue or Ameerat Al Arab. Two or three sprays is enough indoors.
- Evenings and November to March: warm, spicy or sweet scents like Lattafa Asad, Meraki Solitude, Chopard Wish or Chocolate Greedy.
Smart tips to get more value for your money
- Look at price per ml, not just the price. A 125ml bottle at AED 98 can be better value than a 50ml bottle at AED 89.
- Know your concentrations. Eau de parfum (EDP) usually contains more fragrance oil than eau de toilette (EDT), so you may need fewer sprays.
- Use the collection filters. The under-100 page lets you filter by occasion, such as Daily Wear, Office & Work, Date Night, or Summer & Beach. You can also filter by brand and by men, women or unisex.
- Don’t miss the non-perfume items. The same price range includes bakhoor sets, deodorants and kids’ fragrances. These are handy for small gifts or topping up an order.
- Combine orders. Delivery is free on orders over AED 299. Grouping a few bottles for family or friends can save on shipping.
- Store perfume properly. Keep bottles away from sunlight and heat, and never in a parked car during UAE summer.
How to make sure your budget perfume is original
Low prices attract counterfeits, so it’s worth being careful:
- Buy from an established retailer, not unknown social media sellers.
- Check the batch code. Genuine bottles usually have a code on the bottom that matches the one on the box.
- Inspect the packaging for blurry printing, spelling mistakes or loose cellophane.
- Be wary of prices far below what major retailers charge.
