The Good Stuff
Wide variety
Reviews describe a broad selection covering western and local perfume styles, with different bottle sizes and price points.
Make your own
You can create your own perfume at the shop, alongside choosing from its brand-inspired fragrances.
Helpful guidance
Several reviews mention patient, knowledgeable help when comparing scents or choosing one that suits your taste.
Testers available
A detailed review says testers are available for nearly all products, making it easier to check a fragrance before buying.
Gift wrapping
Gift wrapping is available if you are buying perfume for a special occasion.
Tips for a Better Visit
Test first. Try a tester before buying, especially if all-day longevity matters; one customer’s inspired scents lasted only 20 minutes.
Ask clearly. Confirm the exact price before paying, since one review describes inconsistent quotes for the same choices.
Name your style. Tell the team whether you want western or local fragrances; the store is reported to carry both types.
Try Khulood. Ask to sample Khulood 1 or Khulood 2, both repeatedly mentioned by customers as notable in-house options.

The Bottom Line
Xbue Parfum in Al Barsha is a perfume store where you can browse brand-inspired fragrances, compare western and local styles, or make your own perfume. Customers regularly mention long-lasting scents and good value, while the in-house Khulood 1 and Khulood 2 are among the most talked-about choices. The range includes familiar-inspired profiles such as Dior Sauvage and Dior Fahrenheit, as well as named options including Meydan, BEU Bella, Oud for Greatness and Narcotique fleur.
Reviews describe the selection as broad, with different bottle sizes and price points. A detailed visit also mentions testers for nearly all products, so sampling before committing is sensible; gift wrapping is available too. Service is a strong part of the experience.
Customers describe the team as patient, knowledgeable and willing to explain fragrance choices, which is useful if you know the kind of smell you like but not the name of the scent. If you are shopping in a hurry, one review says packaging was completed quickly. There are two cautions.
Longevity is not consistent: one customer said the Dior-inspired purchases faded after around 20 minutes, despite many others reporting lasting perfumes. Another review complained about changing price quotes, so confirm the final price before paying.
