Perfume Gifts for Him

Buy gifts for men online in the UAE

Shopping for gifts for men is famously difficult. Many men say they need nothing, buy what they want themselves or are hard to read. A great perfume solves the problem: it is personal, practical and part of daily life in the UAE, where a man's scent is noticed at the office, at Friday prayers, in the majlis and at dinners with friends. That is why a perfume is one of the most searched and most appreciated gifts for him across the Emirates. At 11:11 Perfume you can choose a perfume gift for him from more than one hundred long-lasting eau de parfum fragrances, men's gift sets, discovery boxes and bakhoor, with free delivery anywhere in the UAE.

Every 50ml bottle is an eau de parfum with up to 30% perfume oil, designed to be long-lasting in the UAE heat, and costs AED 75 (was AED 99).

Choose by his personality and scent family

A perfume that matches his personality is the gift he will reach for every day.

• The traditional man: he loves the majlis and family gatherings. Choose rich oud perfumes with saffron, rose and amber.
• The modern professional: clean, confident and polished. Our woody perfumes with cedar, vetiver and sandalwood suit him.
• The sporty man: light and energising. Choose from our fresh perfumes with citrus and aquatic notes.
• The bold, stylish man: he likes to be noticed. Try smooth leather perfumes and warm spicy perfumes.
• The evening man: dinners, weddings and events. Our amber perfumes and evening and date night perfumes leave a lasting trail.

For the workplace, our office perfumes are pleasant up close and never overpowering. For hot months, our summer perfumes stay fresh, and if you want a scent anyone can wear, see our unisex perfumes.

Men's gift sets, bundles and discovery boxes

A gift set turns a simple present into something generous. Our perfume box and gift sets include men's bundles with several 50ml eau de parfums, so he can choose a scent for work, weekends and special evenings; explore all our perfume gift sets for more combinations. Not sure of his taste? A perfume discovery set lets him try several best sellers and choose his favourite. Every perfume arrives in a white 11:11 gift tube, ready to give.

For the majlis, home and car: bakhoor and air fresheners

In Emirati and Gulf homes, home fragrance is as important as personal perfume. Our bakhoor arrives in a black 11:11 cube box and fills the majlis with oud, amber and soft spices – a respected gift for fathers, hosts and business partners. Our air fresheners are a practical extra for his home, office or car. A perfume paired with bakhoor is one of the most complete gifts you can give a man in the UAE.

Gifts for men by budget

A single 50ml eau de parfum at AED 75 is a complete, impressive gift on its own – ideal for birthdays, thank-yous and Secret Santa. Two complementary perfumes – a fresh scent for the day and a warm oud or amber for the evening – make a more generous present for anniversaries and graduations. For weddings, Eid, retirements and milestone birthdays, a men's gift set or a perfume with bakhoor feels truly special. For company orders, see our corporate gifts. You can pay with cash on delivery, card, Tabby or Tamara.

How to choose a perfume gift for him

Start with what he already wears. If he likes his current perfume, choose something in the same family – fresh, woody, spicy, leather or oud – so the new scent feels familiar but exciting. If he rarely wears perfume, a versatile fresh woody fragrance is the safest first choice; it works for the office, weekends and evenings.

Think about his age and routine. Younger men often enjoy fresh, sporty and slightly sweet scents; mature men tend to prefer refined woods, leather and oud. Long office days call for clean fragrances that are pleasant up close, while weddings, Eid and dinners call for richer amber and oud. Consider the season too: from May to September, lighter citrus and aquatic notes are more comfortable in the heat, while from October to April warm, spicy and oud fragrances shine.

Many men in the Gulf apply perfume to the kandura and ghutra as well as the skin, and finish with the smoke of bakhoor before leaving home. If he follows this tradition, a rich, long-lasting eau de parfum paired with bakhoor is the perfect gift. Share a simple tip: two or three sprays on the neck and wrists after a shower, without rubbing, is all he needs.

Gift message ideas for men

Men often value a short, sincere note more than a long card. Try "For the man who makes every day better", "Proud of you – congratulations" or "Thank you for everything you do". A touch of humour works well for brothers and friends, while a formal line of appreciation suits a manager or business partner.
