Question 1

How does Asaar work?

Accepted Answer

We automatically collect publicly available perfume prices from online stores in Saudi Arabia every day. Our system groups the same perfume across stores so you can compare prices side by side and find the best deal.

Question 2

How often are prices updated?

Accepted Answer

Prices are refreshed every day at 3 AM UTC. Our automated pipeline collects publicly available data from all supported stores, processes it, and updates the database — so the prices you see are typically less than 24 hours old.

Question 3

Are the prices accurate?

Accepted Answer

Prices are updated daily from each store's website. However, stores can change prices at any time, so we recommend clicking through to the store to confirm the price before purchasing.

Question 4

Which stores do you compare?

Accepted Answer

We compare prices from 20+ online stores in Saudi Arabia, including Kaneen, Paris Gallery, Faces, Nahdi, Amazon.sa, and many more. Visit our About page for the full, up-to-date list.

Question 5

What is the cheapest perfume store in Saudi Arabia?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the perfume. Different stores have the best price on different products. That is exactly why Asaar exists — we compare all of them so you do not have to check each store individually.

Question 6

What is the difference between Regular, Tester, and Sample?

Accepted Answer

Regular perfumes come in full retail packaging. Testers are authentic perfumes sold without the retail box (often used in stores for display). Samples are small vials, typically 1-5ml, meant for trying a fragrance before buying.

Question 7

Do you sell perfumes directly?

Accepted Answer

No. Asaar is a price comparison service. When you click 'Visit' on a listing, you are taken directly to the store's website where you can make your purchase.

Question 8

Where do the ratings and notes come from?

Accepted Answer

Fragrance ratings, accords, and note pyramids are sourced from Parfumo, a community-driven fragrance database. Click the rating badge on any perfume page to view its full Parfumo profile.

Question 9

Is Asaar available for UAE, Bahrain, or Kuwait?

Accepted Answer

Currently we focus on stores that ship to Saudi Arabia. Many of the stores we track also ship to other GCC countries, but coverage may vary. We plan to expand regional coverage in the future.

Question 10

A price or product is wrong. How do I report it?

Accepted Answer

On any product page, click the 'Report' button to let us know. You can report wrong prices, broken links, incorrect names, duplicates, or suggest new stores. We review every report.

Question 11

Can I request a new store to be added?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Use the Feedback form and select 'Request new store'. We'll evaluate and add it if it meets our criteria.
