Anfas Mahaba is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2017. Mahaba opens with Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Vanilla and Tonka Bean. Anfas's Mahaba carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag. Some find it a clean, sweet floral with good projection, others are utterly baffled by conflicting note lists and smell nothing but weak, soapy disappointment. Tread carefully, and don't expect the notes listed here to be what you actually get.

Topas listed
Baseas listed

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Date

Its clean, often soapy character and moderate performance make it suitable for casual wear or an office environment where discretion is key. The sweetness could work for a relaxed date, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events.

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.

About

Mahaba opens with a fleeting green and citrusy whisper of petitgrain, quickly melding into a creamy heart of jasmine and ylang-ylang. A soft, sweet vanilla-tonka base emerges, offering a gourmand-like warmth that balances the initial freshness, though some find a persistent, clean soapiness dominates the whole affair.
