This is an amazing scent. Somewhat sweet vanilla opener, but notes of spices, leather and pipe tobacco balance the sweetness out well... This is a definitely a more masculine scent, but given the vanilla I think it would be fine for women who want something different. Regardless, this will get people's attention, it's very unique.Excellent performance, I tried a single spray when I got the bottle six hours ago, and it's still going strong. I would not wear more than two sprays of this under any circumstances, it's very concentrated. Good projection as well, even after six hours it hasn't dried down to being just a skin scent. This is 100% made to wear in the winter. It's not light and fresh like one would want to wear in the height of summer. The bottle came in a very nice box, and the bottle itself is great, it looks like cut rock crystal and the atomizer works properly. I am still kind of stunned that this was less than $30, I have bought designer colognes that weren't half as good as this at more than 10x the price.
Lattafa Khamrah Qahwa EDP was an excellent buy. The scent is sweet, warm, and spicy, with impressive longevity and projection—plus the presentation/box feels far more premium than the price. For under $30, it’s a great value.It leans unisex and shines in cooler weather (fall/winter). I reach for it for casual get-togethers, cozy outfits, date nights, and evenings out. It’s not my pick for formal, semi-formal, or professional settings because it can be a bit too sweet and bold.If you want a strong, cozy, sweet-spicy fragrance for cold weather, I highly recommend it.
Smells like fall, best perfume for girls who like cinnamon, clove, vanilla, and brown sugar. Definitely a winter date night perfume. Last forever 5-6 hours maybe more. Sprays great, no bottle leakage at all and such a nice bottle to have on your vanity table. Also I love when people stop me to ask what I’m wearing, this is one i get compliments on, so i know projection is awesome. Great price for the size and aroma. This is my second bottle, I will continue to buy.
Lattafa Khamrah is deep, sweet, and very warm. On first spray, it opens with a strong cinnamon-spiced vanilla that quickly turns into a rich ambery, almost dessert-like gourmand scent. Think cozy winter evenings, baked goods, and warm spice rather than a fresh or airy perfume.Longevity is excellent — one or two sprays last most of the day on me, and it projects strongly for the first few hours. This is not a subtle fragrance. If you overspray, it can easily become overwhelming.That’s why I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5:• It’s extremely sweet and heavy, which may be too much for some people• Definitely better for fall/winter or nighttime, not warm weather• Not ideal if you prefer clean, fresh, or light floralsThat said, for the price, the quality and performance are impressive. If you love vanilla, spice, and bold gourmand scents, this is a great value and very unique.Tip: Start with 1 spray only — a little goes a long way.
Khamrah has been hyped for years now, but is it really worth the attention? Here are some of my thoughts based on my experience with the Original Khamrah, Khamrah Qahwa, and the newest release, Dukhan. Hopefully, this helps you decide which one might suit you—or if you’d rather skip them altogether.Original Khamrah: Personally, I didn’t enjoy this one. To me, it smells like a wax candle you'd find in a church or something from Yankee Candle (though I can’t pinpoint the exact scent). It’s extremely sweet and very boozy. This is a definite winter fragrance and while it does smell high quality, it’s just not my style. I usually avoid overly sweet scents. However, I can see the appeal—if you enjoy strong, sweet, and boozy fragrances or like that church candle vibe, you’ll probably appreciate this. For under $30, it smells far more expensive than it is. Some people compare it to Angel’s Share by Kilian, and while I don’t think they smell exactly the same, they do share a similar DNA. Both lean toward a boozy, cinnamon-heavy profile. However, the execution is different enough that I wouldn’t call Khamrah a direct dupe. If you're familiar with Angel’s Share, you’ll recognize some of the elements, but Khamrah takes its own path.Khamrah Qahwa: This is where the magic happens. If you didn’t enjoy the Original due to its overwhelming sweetness and you like coffee notes, this is the one to try. It tones down the sweetness of the Original and introduces a smooth coffee scent that blends beautifully. That waxy candle smell is gone, replaced by something richer and more mature. It leans boozy and sophisticated—perfect for men over 30 or anyone with a more refined style. I personally enjoy Khamrah Qahwa far more than the Original in every aspect. It’s not trying to copy any niche or designer fragrance, but it stands strong on its own as a very well-blended scent. At around $25, it’s an incredible value and smells like something much more luxurious.Dukhan: The newest release comes in at about $20 more than the others, but when I first smelled it, it immediately reminded me of the Original Khamrah. It’s like a toned-down version of the Original with a subtle hint of spice. Not drastically different, but enough to notice. It still carries that candle-like vibe, just less sweet. If the Original gave you a headache, this one might be more tolerable. It’s still boozy and sweet, but slightly more balanced. I’d say it’s a more wearable option if you're curious about the Khamrah DNA but want something less intense.Final thoughts: Everyone’s nose is different, and we all have unique scent preferences. As a small fragrance collector with around 50 bottles, including both UAE and designer brands, my clear favorite is Khamrah Qahwa. It strikes the perfect balance of sweetness and warmth, with that standout coffee note that I absolutely love. I picked it up for $25, and it’s also available at Burlington for about $35. It’s ideal for cold weather, date nights, or any winter occasion where you want to smell refined without overspending.If you're just looking for a safe blind buy or something more universally appealing, Khamrah Qahwa is the way to go, especially for men over 30 or those with a mature style. If you’re curious about the Original or Dukhan, I’d recommend Dukhan since it offers a similar scent but is a little more toned down. That said, I’d wait for the price to drop below $30. If you’re into very sweet, loud, boozy, and cinnamony scents, the Original might be for you.I hope this helps you choose the right Khamrah for your collection.
