Lattafa Khamrah - Vanilla, Warm Spicy, Amber, Cinnamon - Eau de Parfum Long-Lasting Fragrance for Unisex, 3.40 Ounce / 100 ml

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.

Lattafa Khamrah Qahwa blew me away. If you're a fan of Mugler's A*Men Pure Tonka, you're going to love this. It opens with a rich blend of cinnamon and coffee, then melts into creamy vanilla and warm spice, like a cozy café in a bottle.The scent is bold yet smooth, with excellent longevity and a comforting vibe that’s perfect for cooler weather or evening wear. It leans unisex but has enough depth to stand out on anyone. The performance is impressive for the price. It lasts all day and garners compliments.If you like sweet, warm, slightly gourmand fragrances with a touch of sophistication, this is an incredible value and a must-try. Lattafa knocked it out of the park with this one.

Lattafa Khamrah: This fragrance hits the spot. I'm a fan of vanilla scented fragrances, and I've been looking for a replacement for one that is no longer produced, and this hit the spot perfectly. It is absolutely wonderful, start to finish. It lasts, a long time. Sillage is great, but not overpowering. I can smell it on skin after work, and slightly the next day; and I can smell it on clothes days later. Some like to compare lower priced fragrances to big or expensive brands -- this is effectively a designer fragrance at a friendly price point; well worth it.If you are looking for a review of Lattafa Khamrah Qahwa, you've come to the right place. I've purchased both, and the Qahwa version also has a very strong vanilla scent, but with what I would call "sugar and spice" overtones. There is definitely something more to Qahwa, but with the same DNA as the vanilla.You can't go wrong with either. Both get 5 stars. If you like vanilla scents, plain or with warm/spice overtones -- selecting one depends on personal preference.

Lattafa Khamrah Cinnamon Spice ScentHonestly, the Lattafa Khamrah Cinnamon Spice scent is my favorite of the bunch—and one of the best fragrances I’ve ever used. I wear it daily, and it’s become my go-to scent.Is it perfect? No. The alcohol-to-fragrance ratio feels off. When first sprayed (or after extended use), the alcohol scent can overpower the actual fragrance, which can be a bit unpleasant. I really hope the brand adjusts this in the future—it would greatly enhance the overall quality.The bottle design is beautiful and stands out, but I’ve experienced some issues. On both bottles I’ve purchased, the cap doesn’t close properly, and the spray nozzle has fallen off. It’s a bit disappointing given how well-crafted the bottle appears.That said, the scent itself is long-lasting—I can smell it throughout the day—and I’ve received compliments from both women and men about how good it smells. I genuinely believe that if they refined the alcohol blend, demand would rise significantly, and they could easily justify raising the price.
