Bakhoor

Bakhoor or Bakhur, an Arabic word which means Fumes, is vastly known for perfuming houses or surroundings. The term Bakhoor in this sense mainly refers to the wood chips that are soaked in fragrant Oud oils. Bakhoor must be burned, normally by using a charcoal, to release its woody sweet smelling aroma. It can be placed in a Mabkhara, an Arabic word, meaning incense burner.
