New Consumer Goods research report from Euromonitor International is now available from Fast Market Research

Boston, MA -- (SBWire) -- 10/08/2014 --Localisation remained a prominent trend in fragrances during 2013, boosting growth in the category overall. International players continued to launch fragrances based on oud in order to appeal to the United Arab Emirates? local population as well as advertising their existing international brands. These oud-based fragrances include Wood Mystique and Tom Ford Oud Wood by Est?e Lauder, both of which are heavily advertised on billboards lining the main roads, posters in shopping centres and on television. Other players followed suit during 2013, exemplified by L'Or?al?s launch of Lancome L?Autre Oud. This strategy of the leading international companies operating in fragrances was response to the high levels of competition they face from both local and regional players, including Abdul Samed Al Qurashi Co and Arabian Oud Co, both of which cater mainly to local tastes. This, in turn, widened the appeal of international brands and served to boost sales overall in fragrances during 2013.

Competitive Landscape

Abdul Samed Al Qurashi Co maintained its lead in fragrances in 2013 with a value share of 17%. The company?s longstanding presence in the country and across the Gulf region as a whole coupled with its unique local flavour and authenticity ensured that it was able to maintain its leading position due to the high levels of loyalty that its brand inspires among consumers in the United Arab Emirates. The company?s wide portfolio of oud-based fragrances and French-style fragrances with flower and musk scents means that its fragrances appeal to a very wide range of consumers. In addition, many of the foreign tourists flocking to the United Arab Emirates for shopping trips are very keen on taking back authentic Arabian gifts for their friends and family back home, and as such many of them frequent Abdul Samed Al Qurashi?s stores.

Industry Prospects

Healthy positive value growth is expected to continue developing in the United Arab Emirates over the forecast period, with this growth driven mainly by the continued influx of expatriates to the United Arab Emirates, the majority of whom are drawn by the high salaries, favourable economic climate and the opportunity to indulge in luxury which exists in the United Arab Emirates. In addition, the anticipated surge in the number of foreign tourists visiting the country during the forecast period is also likely to have a positive impact on sales of fragrances. Furthermore, the premiumisation trend is set to continue developing as disposable income levels continue to grow and international companies continue to aggressively promote and advertise their fragrances brands.
