Casual

Given its richness and enduring presence, Affaf is likely too dominant for an everyday office setting but perfect for making a statement on a romantic date or at a formal event. It's a scent that lingers, making it less suitable for casual, airy occasions or sports activities where a lighter, fresher aroma is preferred.

About

Affaf opens with a bright, juicy burst of mango, plum, and citrus, immediately tempered by a sophisticated lavender. The heart quickly unfolds into a rich, powdery rose and iris, intertwined with the creamy warmth of ylang-ylang and delicate lily-of-the-valley. As it settles, a soft, balanced oud emerges, harmonising with the rose and sweet, woody notes to create a luxurious and deeply inviting scent. This isn't a sharp, green rose, but a velvety, almost jammy floral softened by an amber-patchouli embrace.
