About Us

NOX is the first homegrown men's lifestyle magazine for the Arab World.

Based in Amman, Jordan, and distributed in Lebanon, Dubai and Bahrain, NOX is a stylish, sophisticated and usually incredibly sarcastic look at sport, film, cars, music and, being in this part of the world, an awful lot of politics. And it's all from an Arab standpoint.
