There is nothing more delightful than taking the fragrance of Marrakech home with you and reliving the experience of your time there.
You can find plenty of places in the souks selling argan oil and perfumes, fragrant shampoos, and body wash.
The scent of orange blossom, oud, and jasmine oil enticing you to buy something special as a constant reminder of the time you’ve spent in Marrakesh.
It’s important to know that not all oil will be genuine argan oil.
There are inferior quality products sold at a high price, so you need to be careful not to get ripped off.
The argan oil cooperatives are the best option for buying genuine products, but if you don’t get the opportunity to visit them, where should you go?
I found a great place in the souks run by a very helpful and pleasant woman.
Herboristerie Reda shop, the address is,
48.Derb Sidi, Boulfdail.
Marrakech 40000.
I purchased a few lovely products from here, and they’re good quality oils.
I spent a lot of time inside the shop and didn’t feel pressured to buy anything.
The woman was called Hennan, and she was genuinely helpful and kind.
There is a huge selection of products, including soap and fragrant body cream, perfumed oils, and products for use during a hammam.
The shop is used to advertise a Gourd Festival each year, they are hung up outside and the front of the shop is very colourful and inviting.
I have purchased goods from other retailers in the souks, but the scent doesn’t last very long before wearing off.
The oils from here last ages and smell amazing.
You can also purchase herbs and spices such as Saffron, herbal teas, and medicinal ointments.
