Gulf Orchid

Gulf Orchid is a family-owned fragrance and cosmetics business with roots in 1987; its fragrance brand was officially launched in 2016. The company grew from a small cosmetics operation into a perfume and cosmetics business involved in private-label manufacturing and product development. Based in Umm Al Quwain, United Arab Emirates, it operates across the Middle East and internationally. Its creative identity brings Arabian fragrance heritage together with contemporary global influences, incorporating input from the fragrance community alongside the brand’s own styles. Gulf Orchid later created Matin Martin, an imagined traveling perfumer concept that connects UAE and Arabian perfume traditions with French ingredient expertise through an East–West design approach.
