BRAND NAME
The name “Black Oud” was born from the vision of its founder, Walid Anan, who sought to unite his African ancestry with his Middle Eastern background, resulting in the creation of a culturally rich and inclusive experience. By introducing "Black Oud," Anan aimed to extend an invitation to a diverse audience, allowing them to immerse themselves in the captivating world of Oud. This fusion of two heritages not only pays homage to his roots but also serves as a gateway for a wider audience to appreciate and engage with the art of Oud.
HISTORY
In the vibrant atmosphere of Sunday markets in London, 2018, Walid Anan emerged, tirelessly pushing his trolley filled with exquisite oil fragrances. Undeterred by any conditions, his dedication was fueled by a singular mission—to offer others the luxurious experience of indulging in fine Arabian fragrances that would ignite their confidence in their daily lives. With each encounter, Walid aimed to provide people with a transformative sensory experience, elevating their spirits and empowering them to embrace their true potential. 
 In the present day, Black Oud London has successfully captivated a diverse audience of oud enthusiasts, encompassing both the entertainment industry and the vibrant urban culture of London.
