Afnan 9PM Elixir is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Imran Fazlani. 9PM Elixir opens with Cardamom, Nutmeg, and Elemi, settles into a heart of Pimiento, Leather, and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Rose, Vanilla, and Labdanum. Afnan's 9PM Elixir carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This one is definitely divisive - people either absolutely love its spicy, creamy, attention-grabbing aroma or find it an overwhelmingly harsh, synthetic mess. Don't expect a perfect dupe; expect a beast mode fragrance that really needs to macerate to show its best self. Blind buying is a gamble.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

With its beast-mode projection and longevity, this is far too potent for office wear, which could easily offend. It's perfectly suited for dates and formal evening events where its seductive and attention-grabbing nature can shine. Too heavy for casual day-to-day use, and definitely not for sport.

About

Opening with a sharp, warm blast of cardamom, nutmeg, and the piercing elemi, it quickly settles into a more rounded heart of lavender, rich leather, and a hint of pimiento spice. The long, lingering drydown showcases a creamy, almost chocolatey vanilla alongside earthy patchouli, a touch of rock rose, and balsamic labdanum, creating a truly potent and seductive aroma.
