Anfas Ishq is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Christian Carbonnel and Asem Al Qassim. Ishq opens with Jasmine and Saffron, settles into a heart of Amber and Raspberry, and dries down to a base of Powdery and Oakmoss. Anfas's Ishq carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one is a real head-turner, divisive but magnetic. Love it or hate it, Ishq commands attention with its potent blend of fruit and spice, often drawing comparisons to BR540 but with its own unique, powdery, fruity punch.

About

Ishq opens with a heady mix of exotic saffron and sweet jasmine, immediately grabbing you. The heart blossoms into a juicy, slightly tangy raspberry, backed by a warm amber glow. As it settles, a soft, inviting talc-like powder emerges, grounding the sweetness with an earthy hint of oakmoss, creating a smooth, rich finish.
