Khamrah

Lattafa / لطافة 2022

I got the Khamrah as a gift and right away: I am unfortunately not a fan.

I have a total problem with Akigalawood.

For me, it's a kind of spicy woodiness that reminds me of rotten/moldy wood, but in a very synthetic way. Quite badly this was with the Guidance I really did not bear at all.

The fragrance starts very nice gourmandig and smells like baked apple with cinnamon. I was totally happy that I did not smell anything from the Akigalawood. But after a few minutes, this note then rose to my nose, at first only discreetly, but with time more intense.

Directly on the skin it remains very gourmandig for a long time, the sillage, however, consists for me really very quickly exclusively of Akigalawood.

I own, by the way, the Angels' Share and can really not understand that many smell there a similarity. The Angels Share smells for me intensely hazelnut, woods and cognac and also the sillage is dominated by these notes.

The only common denominator for me is the cinnamon and the classification as winter fragrances.

The Angels Share also smells very linear to me, while the Khamrah has a changing scent progression.

For me, these are two completely independent fragrances.

The flacon, however, I find super high-quality! Since you really get something for your money and if you like the fragrance character, then you really get a very qualitative fragrance. Price-performance ratio therefore top.
