01 — Introduction

Yaanu Nahay

From our workshop in Mogadishu, we transform fragrance ingredients into a diverse range of finished products for individuals, businesses, events and institutions.

Whether you want a perfume made from Frankincense (Soomaali Luban), a fragrance inspired by a perfume brand you already love, or a completely new signature scent created for you or your business — ABYAZ way sameyn kartaa.

07 — Origins

Our Story

Somalia is home to some of the world's finest frankincense. For generations, this precious natural resource has travelled from Somalia to markets around the world, often leaving the country as a raw material. ABYAZ was created to change the story. We asked a simple question:

“What if Somalia could transform its own natural resources into the finished products sold in global markets?”
That question became ABYAZ
Heritage

Beeyada (Soomaali Luban), treasured for generations.

The Question

Why export only the raw resource?

The Workshop

Local processing and formulation in Mogadishu.

The Products

Barfuun, uunsi, diffusers and more — made in Somalia.
