Tips for a Better Visit
Check stock. Confirm availability before travelling, since one customer found an item listed as available was not in stock on arrival.
Avoid closing. Visit well before closing rather than arriving late: one customer reported being turned away at 9:30 despite expecting about half an hour left.
Plan parking. Allow extra time for parking around the location; a customer specifically called parking the main drawback.
Test first. Try the oil on your skin or a tester before buying, as one customer said a supposedly matching fragrance did not produce the expected smell.
Ask bulk rates. If you are buying several items, ask about bulk pricing; one review says larger purchases can receive aggressive rates.

The Bottom Line
Hamidi Oud & Perfumes in Deira is geared towards shoppers looking for oriental and traditional fragrances, particularly oud, attar, perfume oils and water perfumes. The range is a strong reason to browse: reviews mention Waleeja attar, Natural Water Perfumes with oud and jasmine tuberose, and a collection of Nadeem perfumes. One customer also bought silk musk perfume and described both the fragrance and price positively.
Pricing is repeatedly described as reasonable, and the shop can make a scent from a customer’s description according to one review. Bulk buyers may find the store especially relevant, with a customer reporting aggressive pricing for larger purchases. That also makes it a possible stop for family gifts or reselling rather than only a one-bottle visit.
There are a few practical cautions. Stock shown as available may not be available when you arrive, and phone contact has been criticised, so confirm items before setting out if possible. Parking can be difficult around the location.
Service reviews are mixed, including a complaint about being turned away at 9:30 near closing, while other customers found the staff polite and helpful. For oils, test the scent carefully before paying; one buyer said the fragrance supplied did not smell as expected.
