Omani Imperial by Gissah is a luxurious woody spicy fragrance for women and men, released in 2026 as part of Gissah’s Homeland Edition. Inspired by the character and heritage of Oman, it contrasts peppery spice and delicate peony with ripe fig, smoky frankincense and a commanding base of leather, musk and oud. The result feels distinctly Middle Eastern—resinous, textured and sophisticated without losing the softer floral and fruity elements that give it dimension.
The opening combines pepper and peony. Pepper provides an immediate dry, spicy intensity while peony introduces a soft, airy floral character. That juxtaposition creates an unusual opening: simultaneously sharp and delicate, with the floral freshness preventing the spice from becoming overly aggressive.
At the heart, fig and olibanum completely deepen the atmosphere. Fig contributes a subtly sweet, creamy fruitiness while olibanum—frankincense—introduces the smoky, resinous quality that defines much of Omani Imperial’s personality. The contrast between smooth fig and sacred incense creates a heart that feels warm, mysterious and unmistakably Middle Eastern.
The drydown brings together leather, musk and oud. Leather introduces a dark, tactile richness while oud adds dense woody depth. Musk smooths the heavier materials and creates a softer finish against the skin, allowing the smoky frankincense and traces of fig to remain present beneath the darker woods.
Omani Imperial is ultimately built around the contrast between peppery freshness, delicate florals, creamy fruit and smoky woods. Peony gives it refinement, fig provides subtle sweetness, and frankincense, leather and oud give the fragrance the weight and character expected from something carrying the Omani Imperial name.
Omani Imperial feels like entering an ancient Omani palace as clouds of frankincense rise toward intricately carved stone arches—pepper scattered across cool marble while pale peonies soften the darkness. Ripe figs rest beside glowing resin as incense slowly fills the chamber. Deeper inside, worn leather and dark oud emerge through the smoke, softened by warm musk, leaving behind the scent of burning frankincense, polished woods and centuries of Omani tradition.
