The Souk of Muttrah is located in the heart of the oldest city in the Middle East, the capital of the Sultanate of Oman, Muscat. It is also called the ‘dark market’ because it is bathed in twilight and thus appears particularly mysterious.
It is the perfect place to spend a small fortune on a legendary khanjar. The khanjar is a dagger curved in the shape of a J, the result of true craftsmanship passed down from father to son. It is part of the identity, pride and heritage of the Sultanate of Oman. In the tradition of great warriors, it was worn on a belt, but today it is only worn on special occasions. There are many different types of khanjars. The most beautiful are made of silver, often engraved with the course of the sun across the sky, and have a wooden handle. The silver gives it the properties of a talisman – good luck and protection from evil. To carry a khanjar is to carry a part of the Omani soul.
The Ambre Khandjar fragrance is a tribute to the power of tradition. It is a powerful oriental amber fragrance with modern facets and a leather and vanilla finish that makes it timeless, warm and irresistibly attractive. A fragrance that evokes sun-kissed skin cooled by metal.
