Marque Collection: history, bestsellers and everything about the numbered perfumes
Marque Collection is a line of numbered eau de parfums in a small bottle, such as No. 125, No. 169 and No. 103. Instead of a name, each fragrance gets a number. Web shops sell the line as ‘Fragrance World Marque’, and the brand belongs to the family of Fragrance World from Dubai. In this article you will read what is known about Marque Collection, who the fragrances are for and which numbers are the most popular at Arabmusk.

History and origin of Marque Collection
Little is publicly known about the history of Marque Collection. We found no brand website of its own and no founding year. However, web shops in Lithuania and Australia, among others, sell the fragrances as ‘Fragrance World Marque’ or ‘Marque Collection by Fragrance World’. A European web shop writes that the line was developed from the perfumery expertise of Fragrance World. The barcodes fit this as well: they start with the same digits as those of Fragrance World.
The bottles are small. Retailers mention 25 ml; at Arabmusk most numbers are listed as 30 ml. That makes the line handy to carry with you or to try a new fragrance.
Parent company and sister brands
According to retailers, the company behind Marque Collection is Fragrance World, a perfume house from Dubai that, by its own account, was founded in 2004 and sells in more than 150 countries. Fragrance World also makes the brands French Avenue and Street Origins. According to Fragrantica, Athoor al Alam also belongs to the same company. Read more in our article about Fragrance World. At Arabmusk you will find these brands together in the Fragrance World Brands collection.
