Brand: Lattafa Perfumes

Fragrance name: Khamrah, original edition

Concentration: Eau de Parfum (EDP)

Size: 100ml (3.4 US fl oz)

Format: Perfume spray

Fragrance family: Aromatic spicy

Scent profile: Warm spice, rich gourmand sweetness and resinous woods

For: Men and women

Top notes: Cinnamon, nutmeg and bergamot. Warm baking spices lead, with a little citrus brightness at the edges.

Heart notes: Dates, praline, tuberose and mahonial. The dates give Khamrah its rich sweetness, while praline adds a nutty quality and the florals soften the heart.

Base notes: Vanilla, tonka bean, amberwood, myrrh, benzoin and Akigalawood. Smooth vanilla carries into the dry-down, where resin and woods lend depth.

The dates give it character. Their dark, honeyed sweetness is what makes Khamrah such an interesting choice if you already own several vanilla perfumes.

You can follow the scent as it develops. The first spray favours cinnamon and nutmeg. Give it time on skin and the praline, vanilla and warm woods become easier to pick out.

It’s a fragrance you can share. If you and a partner both enjoy spiced gourmand scents, the original Khamrah makes a thoughtful bottle to choose together.

Reach for Khamrah on autumn and winter evenings, especially for a dinner date, a wedding reception or a festive gathering. Its cinnamon and date notes suit a crisp evening outdoors, while the softer vanilla base feels cosy once you’re inside. For an intimate dinner, start with a light application and let the fragrance settle before adding more.
