700 grams of the best oud was used to fragrance the mosque during the day and worshippers were also offered oud and musk oil and other fragrances between Maghrib and Isha prayers with which they could perfume themselves, the head of fragrance department at the Prophet’s Mosque Omar bin Abdulaziz Al-Hindi said.
