Anfas Shaghaf is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Christian Carbonnel. Shaghaf opens with Citrus, Cardamom, and Ginger, and settles into a heart of Leather, Cedar, Tobacco, and Cashmeran. Anfas's Shaghaf carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one is a love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find the opening challenging with its barnyard notes, but for the adventurous, Shaghaf settles into a complex, high-quality oud experience that's both deep and alluring. Not for the faint-hearted or those new to niche fragrances.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong projection and potent oud-amber accords, this is more suited for evenings out or events where making a statement is desired. It's too bold for the office and definitely not for sport, but can be worn casually if applied lightly.

About

Shaghaf opens with an aromatic spark of cardamom and ginger, brightened by a hint of citrus before plunging into a rich, dark heart. Here, dense leather and cashmeran merge with smoky tobacco and cedar, leading to a powerful, resinous base of high-quality amber and oud. It's a journey from zesty spice to deep, animalic warmth.
