Services · Mobile app development · Perfume apps
Codeeo handles perfume app development Jeddah retailers can use to sell to two very different crowds: Jeddah families who buy oud, musk and bakhoor all year, and Umrah visitors who pass through the city wanting fragrance to carry home. We build the catalogue, multilingual ordering, gift bundles, delivery to homes and hotels, and loyalty that keeps local regulars coming back, all in apps your team controls.
Jeddah has sold perfume for generations, from the stalls of Al Balad to the counters in Red Sea Mall. A good app respects that trade. It makes the shop easier to reach without pretending a screen replaces testing a scent in person.

Features for Jeddah perfume sellers
A Jeddah perfume shop rarely has one kind of customer. On the same afternoon a counter might serve a resident restocking bakhoor for the majlis, a family buying wedding gifts, and a group of Umrah visitors from Indonesia or Pakistan choosing attars to take home. Each wants something different from an app. Residents want quick reorders and reliable delivery across districts from Al Hamra to Obhur. Visitors want to browse in their own language, understand what an oil is before they buy it, and receive the order before they leave the Kingdom. Below are the features we most often build for Jeddah retailers. The list changes once we see your product range and which customers bring in most of your sales, because a mall brand and an Al Balad attar shop need different first versions.
Arabic and English as the base, with optional Urdu, Bahasa Indonesia, Malay, Turkish or French product pages for the visitor markets you serve. Translations are written for fragrance, not machine copied, so a note like agarwood or white musk is understood correctly by each audience.
Visitors can choose with confidence instead of guessing at labels.
Ready made sets of attars, prayer friendly alcohol free oils, bakhoor and burners, packed in sizes that fit in hand luggage. Bundles can be built by budget band and number of recipients, with gift cards in the buyer's language.
Visitors buy several gifts in one order rather than piece by piece.
Customers choose a home address, a hotel along the Corniche or near the airport, or a branch pickup. Orders for hotels carry the guest name and booking reference so reception can hold the parcel, with delivery slots matched to your courier routes across north and south Jeddah.
Orders reach visitors who have no Saudi address of their own.
Visitors set their departure date, and the app warns when an item cannot arrive in time and offers pickup instead. Product pages explain which items travel easily in cabin luggage and which sprays may face airline limits.
Fewer missed deliveries and disappointed customers at check in.
Concentrated oils, attars sold by tola, refills into customer bottles and blends prepared on request each need their own setup. We model sizes, grades and preparation times so the shop's traditional range sells online without manual corrections.
Traditional lines are listed accurately alongside boxed sprays.
Jeddah residents who buy the same oud or bakhoor every month see it on their home screen and reorder in two taps. Points, tiers and occasional samples reward that loyalty, and refill reminders arrive when a bottle is likely to run low.
Year round local trade stays steady between visitor seasons.
Jeddah's coastal heat and humidity can damage fragrance left in a hot vehicle. The dashboard groups orders by route and dispatch time, and packing notes remind staff to use insulated packaging during the hottest months.
Products arrive smelling the way they did in the shop.
Shops with a heritage store in Al Balad and counters in the malls along Tahlia Street or the Corniche can show stock per location. Customers reserve at the nearest branch, and staff move items between shops when one runs short.
Customers see what is actually on the shelf near them.
Ramadan nights, Eid, the Jeddah Season events and peak Umrah months change what sells. Your team schedules banners, bundles and push notifications by language and audience from the dashboard, without asking a developer.
Campaigns go live on time for each busy period.
Jeddah perfume shops often employ staff from several countries. The dashboard can run in Arabic or English per user, shows each order with packing, gift and hotel notes, and lets a supervisor assign couriers, approve refunds and see which products are selling to visitors versus residents.
Every staff member can work the dashboard in the language they read best.
Who this is for
Jeddah's perfume trade ranges from family attar shops in the historic district to modern Saudi brands with mall counters and online stores. The visitor side of the business is seasonal and multilingual, while the resident side is steady and loyal. Most retailers lean towards one or the other, and the first release should follow that balance. Here are four common situations we scope for, with what we would build first in each. Visitor and resident buyers can share one app, but the home screen, offers and languages each group sees should differ.
Your shop is known by name, and many visitors arrive because a relative bought from you years ago. The first app keeps the reputation intact: your own photographs, your own descriptions of each oil, simple ordering in the languages your visitors speak, and delivery to their hotel. We keep the interface plain so older customers and first time visitors both find it easy. Repeat buyers abroad can later be offered international shipping where your couriers support it.
Your story and product knowledge matter more than animations.
You already have branches in the major malls and a website, and you want one app across them. We connect point of sale, stock and loyalty so a purchase at a counter on Tahlia Street earns the same points as an online order. Reservation at the nearest counter and a shared customer profile across branches usually come first. Branch managers get their own views, and head office sees sales by counter, by product family and by customer type.
We map your existing systems before proposing a scope.
Your sales peak around Ramadan and the main Umrah months, and many buyers stay only a few days. The priorities are multilingual product pages, gift bundles, hotel delivery and order timing that respects departure dates. We also design for low bandwidth and older phones, since visitors may rely on roaming data or hotel Wi-Fi. Short product videos help visitors understand an oil they have never smelled before.
Language choices are made from your actual customer mix.
You built demand through Instagram, Snapchat and a hosted online store, and repeat customers now ask for an easier way to order. A perfume ecommerce app development project in Jeddah at this stage focuses on reorders, loyalty and push notifications, while reusing the product data and payment setup you already have where that is practical. Social media links can open the matching product directly inside the app.
We will say plainly if your online store should come first.
Working together
We work with Jeddah clients by video call, with shared design files and test builds you install on your own phones. The first release is scoped and agreed in writing. After launch, most perfume retailers keep a retainer so the app is ready for each Ramadan, Eid and Umrah peak, with new bundles, translations and fixes handled on a predictable rhythm. Larger groups with several brands sometimes prefer a dedicated team from our wider group. Every stage ends with a demo on real devices and a short written summary, so decisions made on a call are not lost and your managers can review progress in their own time.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We usually build in Flutter or React Native for one codebase across iPhone and Android, with a web dashboard for staff. Hosting, image delivery and language files are set up so the app stays quick on roaming connections and older devices. Payments run through a licensed Saudi gateway that accepts mada, international cards and Apple Pay.

It depends on scope, and the timeline is agreed in writing after discovery.
A focused first release with catalogue, checkout, delivery and loyalty moves faster than one that also includes branch stock, hotel delivery rules and several languages. After video discovery we write a plan with stages and review points, and we try to schedule launch away from Ramadan and the busiest Umrah months so your staff are not learning a new system at peak demand. Content preparation, especially product photography and translated descriptions, often sets the pace more than the code itself.
