Ibrahim Al Qurashi Perfumes Guide: Diamond, Tobacco and Musk Collections

Is Ibrahim Al Qurashi the same as IBRAQ?

Yes. IBRAQ is the newer brand name of Ibrahim Al Qurashi, formed from “Ibrahim” and “Al-Qurashi”, according to the brand’s official pages. The brand unveiled the IBRAQ name in February 2025. Many bottles, shops and listings still say Ibrahim Al Qurashi, and fans often shorten it to IAQ.

So if you see Ibrahim Al Qurashi, IAQ, IBRAQ or the Arabic إبراهيم القرشي, they all refer to the same Saudi house. At Askar Perfumes the products are listed under Ibrahim Al Qurashi, and this guide uses the same name. Brand facts about IBRAQ come from the brand’s official pages.

Where is Ibrahim Al Qurashi from?

Ibrahim Al Qurashi is from Saudi Arabia. According to the brand’s About pages, the house began in 1929 as a small shop near the Holy Mosque (Masjid al-Haram) in Makkah, selling oud, amber and perfume blends. The business later expanded to Jeddah and then across Saudi Arabia and the Gulf.

That origin still shapes the range. Oud, amber and musk remain at the center of the range, and the modern spray collections bring those materials into eau de parfum and extrait de parfum bottles. The brand’s wider range also includes perfume oils. The 1929 date and the Makkah story come from the brand. Askar Perfumes repeats them as the brand’s own account.

Askar Perfumes stocks only the Ibrahim Al Qurashi sprays, not its oils. More on that below.

What does Ibrahim Al Qurashi perfume smell like?

Ibrahim Al Qurashi perfume usually smells rich and layered, with dense bases of oud, amber, incense, musk, leather or tobacco, going by the notes in our listings. Even the fresher bottles, such as Blue Diamond Aqua, finish on incense, musk and patchouli rather than a light citrus base.

Three habits run through the house. First, saffron and spice appear often: saffron in Black Carbon Diamond, Balas Rose and Citrine Amber, cinnamon in Sun Musk and Dominican Tobacco. Second, many scents mix a fruit or gourmand note with a dark base, for example dark chocolate and tobacco in Mexican Tobacco. Third, the bottles are large: the Diamond collection comes in 200 ml.

Every Ibrahim Al Qurashi perfume at Askar Perfumes is listed as unisex. If you like soft, clean scents, start with the Musk collection; if you like bold, smoky scents, start with the Tobacco or smoky Diamond perfumes.

The Ibrahim Al Qurashi gemstone perfumes are five 75 ml eau de parfums named after a gem and a key note: Sapphire Leather, Turquoise Vetiver, Balas Rose, Amethyst Khozam and Citrine Amber ($89.99–$94.99). The second word tells you the main idea. Khozam is the Arabic word for lavender.

• Sapphire Leather ($89.99): citrus, juniper and pink pepper, ginger and iris, on birch, tonka, amber and leather.

Blue Oud is a 100 ml unisex eau de parfum from the Al Wafi line, credited to Ibrahim Al Qurashi in our listing ($109.99). Blue Oud lists blue lilies and oud on top, patchouli and leather in the heart, and tobacco and amber at the base, so it is the most direct oud-and-leather scent in this guide.
