MAISON ASRAR Fakhama is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. Fakhama opens with Sweet Notes and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Musk. MAISON ASRAR's Fakhama carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a divisive dupe - some swear it's a dead ringer for Kilian's LDBS, while others find it too powdery, too linear, or just plain weird. If you're after a sweet, fluffy orange blossom, it might hit the mark, but be prepared for a bit of a maceration gamble and varying performance.

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 Casual

Its sweet and gourmand nature, coupled with varying reports of strong projection, makes it less suited for a professional office environment. It shines brighter for dates and casual outings, where its inviting sweetness can be appreciated without being overwhelming; it's generally too playful for most formal settings.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Fakhama opens with a sugary, almost syrupy gourmand hit, quickly joined by the lush, sweet bloom of orange blossom. As it settles, a soft, creamy vanilla emerges, intertwining with delicate white florals. The base offers a clean, powdery musk, lending a 'fluffy' and slightly 'doll-like' quality, though some detect a less refined sweetness or even a 'soapy' undertone in its development.
