The forum featured two panel discussions, with participation of an elite group of world-renowned perfume experts and the master perfumers, includingToufik Jabban, Marc Daniel Heimgartner, and Nathalie Feisthauer.

The discussions centred on key topics such as the future trajectory of the fragrance industry, advanced techniques for perfume processing, storage, and manufacturing in line with high-quality standards. The sessions also highlighted the importance of innovation in aromatic blends and the art of seamlessly merging smoke, oils, and fragrance sprays to craft a distinct signature in the field.

Speaking on the occasion, Abdallah Sultan Al Owais stated that the Emirates Perfumes Forum plays a key role in promoting the fragrance industry, as it brings together renowned perfume experts from across the globe under one roof.

He noted that the forum served as a model platform for fostering growth and innovation within the perfume sector, offering an essential opportunity for industry professionals to exchange knowledge and experiences. This, in turn, contributes to the advancement of the perfume industry, an arena that combines promising economic potential with a cultural icon that is deeply rooted in the authentic heritage and traditions of the UAE and the Gulf region.
