Anfas Watan is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Asem Al Qassim. Watan settles into a heart of Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha and Floral, and dries down to a base of Musk and Cotton Candy. Anfas's Watan carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This oud-gourmand is a beast, dividing opinion between those who adore its sweet, woody depth and those who find it overwhelming. Not for the faint of heart, it's a unique take on an oriental that demands attention and probably a full bottle.

Given its strong projection and extremely long-lasting nature, Watan isn't ideal for a professional office setting. It shines on dates and formal occasions, where its unique, bold character can make a statement, but could be too much for casual daytime wear.

About

Watan opens with a potent blast of oud, quickly joined by a sticky, almost caramel-like sweetness. The initial intensity gradually settles into a nuanced heart of earthy cypriol and subtle floral touches, adding layers without losing its gourmand edge. It finally rests on a rich base of fluffy musk and that enduring cotton candy sweetness, with the oud gracefully receding to a supportive role.
