Co-Founder, Al Ambra Perfumes
Every great fire needs a wind to make it spread. If the soul of Al Ambra was born from a dream, its future is being built by a strategy. Ghanim Yaqoob Jumma Khurram is the visionary force who recognized a spark of genius and dedicated himself to turning it into a global flame.
The Vision That Met a Vision
Great business stories are often written in the moments where preparation meets opportunity. For Ghanim Yaqoob, that moment arrived just one month after Al Ambra Perfumes opened its doors in Al Barsha Mall.
He encountered the brand not merely as a customer, but as a leader with an eye for potential. He saw past the modest beginnings of a new shop. He looked beyond the shelves and saw the soul of the product.
Where others saw a local startup, Ghanim saw a sleeping giant.
He recognized the authenticity of the scents and the passion of the founder, Abdul Rahiman. But more importantly, he saw a gap in the market: the world was ready for a modern, accessible, yet deeply luxurious Middle Eastern fragrance house. He knew immediately that this brand had the power to go global.
The Strategic Force
Ghanim did not join Al Ambra simply to invest; he joined to lead. He brought with him a mindset defined by structure, clarity, and unyielding ambition.
While the brand’s heart was rooted in artistry, Ghanim became its backbone. He transformed the operation from a single passion project into a scalable business model.
He defined the roadmap: shifting focus from local sales to brand equity.
He championed expansion: driving the strategy to open flagship stores across the GCC.
He protected the identity: ensuring that as the business grew, the commitment to "Ambergris-level luxury" never wavered.
He is the bridge between the art of perfume and the business of luxury.
A Shared Destiny: East Meets West
Ghanim’s personal philosophy aligned perfectly with the brand’s core identity. He believed that the rich heritage of the East should not be confined to tradition—it should be celebrated on the world stage.
He envisioned Al Ambra as a "Global Icon," a brand that could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the historic perfume houses of Paris and Milan, while remaining proudly rooted in the UAE.
His partnership with Abdul Rahiman created a rare and powerful synergy:
The Dreamer provided the product and the passion.
The Strategist provided the path and the power.
A Note from Ghanim Yaqoob
"I have always believed that true success is not about starting; it is about scaling without losing your soul. When I first found Al Ambra, I saw a diamond in the rough. I saw a story that the world needed to hear.
My mission is to ensure that Al Ambra is not just a shop you visit, but a brand you respect. We are building this house brick by brick, city by city, with a single goal: to be the definitive name in modern Middle Eastern luxury. We are not just selling perfume; we are exporting our culture to the world."
Building the Future
Today, Ghanim Yaqoob Jumma Khurram stands as the guardian of Al Ambra’s growth. His strategic leadership ensures that the brand moves forward with precision and purpose, turning a shared dream into an enduring international legacy.
