Adyan by Anfar Purple Haze is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Ahmedullah Anfar. Purple Haze opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Pink Pepper, and Litchi, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Adyan by Anfar's Purple Haze carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This polarizing scent has some calling it a creamy, gentle crowd-pleaser, while others recoil from a 'raunchy old-school rose'. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, so definitely try before you buy.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong projection and enduring longevity make it unsuitable for tightly packed offices, despite its creamy undertones. It shines on dates or formal events where its sensuality and warmth can be appreciated, though some find it too 'old-school' for casual wear.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Purple Haze opens with a burst of bright litchi and zesty lemon, sweetened by a hint of pink pepper. The heart unfurls with a rich, creamy blend of white florals - jasmine and orange blossom - alongside a prominent rose note that some find classic, others cloying. The base settles into a warm, inviting embrace of vanilla, amber, and musk, offering a gentle, milky skin scent with surprising projection.
