Overview
Dakhoon Workshop with Traditional Lunch
What Makes This Experience Special?The Art of Incense: We don't just want you to smell Dakhoon; we want you to mold it. You’ll mix your favorite fragrance notes to create your own signature tablets to take home. Meet Your "Family": We start by breaking the ice! We are WildyNess, and we believe travel is about human connection. You'll spend two immersive hours with our host, Khadija. Feast & Folklore: While we eat, we dive into real, unfiltered talks about Emirati heritage—stories about the past that no textbook can capture. A Trip Back in Time: We’ve chosen the nostalgic village setting of Al Fanar because it’s the perfect "secret sauce" for an authentic trip into the 1960s. Experience the scent of hospitality and the taste of home. |

🟠🔵 Full Description
At WildyNess, our mission is to ensure you never have a "blank time" during your travels. We provide local experiences because we know every corner of the country and want to share the very best with you. This journey is our invitation to explore the "soul" of Dubai.
We have curated this experience at Al Fanar in Al Barsha because it represents everything we value: authenticity and history. The Dakhoon workshop is the driver of this adventure. We empower you to become a "Creator," blending the favorite aromas of our culture into incense that tells your story.
But the real magic happens around the table. We believe that sharing a meal is the best way to open hearts. During our feast, we’ll move beyond tourist facts to give you a true sense of our home through deep cultural discussions. We treat our guests like family, and we can’t wait to welcome you into our caravan.
🟠🔵 WildyNess Tips
Want your new scent to be truly unforgettable? Keep your Dakhoon in its container for a couple of weeks before using it. This allows the fragrance notes to truly marry and settle, making sure the smell "sticks" beautifully once you burn it at home!

Great morning spent!
Great morning spent discovering the world of emirati perfumes.
My preferred part? the workshop where we mixed our own Oud.
Our local guides were as knowledgeable as friendly - replying to our questions beyond the actual perfumes. Highly recommended experience!

A fun and relaxed morning in Dubai
The Dukhun and perfume-making workshop in Dubai was magical from start to finish. Everything was perfectly planned to allow us to fully relax and enjoy the experience. We were warmly welcomed by the Wildyness team and local Emirati guides in a traditional restaurant by the pond—a perfect setting for relaxed morning in Dubai.
We were in a small group of people from different countries, which made it a really nice moment to connect. The local Emiratis shared a traditional breakfast and tea while telling stories about the food, their culture, and their personal preferences.
The workshop itself was hands-on and completely unhurried, unlike many other tours I’ve done in the past. We took our time creating our own unique fragrance, and everyone walked away with the perfume and dukhun we created ourselves.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a genuine local experience—no mass tourism, very calm and intimate. It honestly felt like spending a morning with a group of friends.
