Fragrance house

Dara Caro

Dara Caro is a Dubai-origin fragrance house founded by Francis Caro, a Spaniard whose interest in the region’s olfactory identity developed after traveling through Dubai and encountering oud and oriental aromas. Its fragrance story began with an Oud collection, followed by additional perfumes and extracts. Oud remains the clearest thread in the house’s public fragrance identity, linking its origins with its early creative output. Dara Caro also presents a production identity centered on hand-made perfumery using natural ingredients and no industrial processes. In 2026, the house released Ima-Gyn, its first collaboration with Lorenzo Pazzaglia, adding a recent collaborative work to its documented creative output.
