Our verdict on Khafaya Blue: Acquired

Khafaya Blue is a budget-friendly spicy-woody scent - a strong performer if you're into that sort of thing. It's a bit of a gamble, with some loving its 'DSE glory' after maceration, while others find it just average, or even rancid. Definitely a polarising one.

About

Opens with a peppery, vibrant kick of nutmeg and cinnamon, brightened by a fleeting grapefruit zest. It quickly settles into a robust, dry woody heart, smoothed by aromatic lavender. The base deepens with a curious licorice note, wrapped in creamy sandalwood and warm amber, giving it a persistent, almost leathery finish.
