Experience the luxurious traditional fragrance of Bakhoor with these simple steps:
What equipment do I need?
Use a traditional charcoal burner or mabkhara.
How do I prepare the charcoal?
Place charcoal in the burner, light it until it turns red-hot (usually takes 2-3 minutes).
When do I add the Bakhoor?
Once the charcoal is hot, place small pieces of Bakhoor on the burner's tray.
How long should I burn it?
Allow the scented smoke to fill the room naturally for a warm, luxurious aroma.
Can I use it to scent my clothes?
Yes! Gently waft clothing, hair, or fabrics over the rising smoke for a long-lasting fragrance.
What safety precautions should I take?
Always place the burner on a heat-resistant surface and keep away from children, pets, and flammable materials.
How do I clean up afterward?
Once the charcoal has cooled completely, safely discard the ashes.
Any tips for the best experience?
For a richer scent, close windows and doors while burning, then ventilate afterward for a balanced aroma.
