Fragrance Du Bois has honored a number of women who have made a positive impact on society in the Middle East, by sponsoring the Arab Woman Awards 2014 in the UAE—recognizing individuals in business, the arts, sports, fashion, the media, government and charitable enterprises. The brand presented its prestige Oud-based fragrances to some of the women at the awards ceremony.
 
“Fragrance Du Bois is privileged to be a part of the foremost awards that recognize women of the Arab world who have not only inspired other women, but other individuals to succeed and fulfill their dreams, while also playing a positive role in contributing to the world in their chosen fields,” said Emma Henry, director, Fragrance Du Bois Middle East.
 
“As a brand, we strive to provide the most fabulous Oud based fragrances using only premium ingredients. Our Oud is sourced exclusively from Asia Plantation Capital, ensuring that we use only 100% natural, highest grade Oud, which meets international standards for sustainability. This is one of our commitments as a brand; making sure that we contribute positively to society. Our partnership with the Arab Woman Awards,” she concluded, “makes so much sense for us.”
 
Recipients of the fragrance included Dr. Shaikha Al Maskari, for her success in business, and her role in being an inspiration to women who aspire to succeed in the corporate world in the Middle East; and Ms. Khadijah Mohammed, who not only made history by becoming the first female weightlifter to represent the Arabian Gulf Region at an Olympic Games (when she qualified for London 2012), but also by being the first female Emirati athlete ever to qualify outright.
