Khamrah Waha and Khamrah Mira: Lattafa's new Khamrah fragrances
Khamrah is one of Lattafa's best-known fragrances: warm, spicy and sweet, with cinnamon, dates, praline and vanilla. After Khamrah Qahwa and Khamrah Dukhan, two new versions have arrived, each taking a different direction: Khamrah Waha and Khamrah Mira.
Khamrah Waha – fresh and aromatic, unisex
Lattafa Khamrah Waha
Fresh, aromatic and woody. Unisex Eau de Parfum, 100 ml.
According to Lattafa, Waha is a fresher take on Khamrah. It opens with bergamot, yuzu, juniper and ginger. The heart combines iris, cucumber, sage and a sea salt accord, giving it an aromatic, slightly mineral feel. The base is warmer, with Akigalawood™, tonka, vanilla, musk and Ambrofix™.
Waha is a good choice if you like the warm Khamrah family but want something lighter for daytime or warmer weather.
Khamrah Mira – a floral gourmand for women
Lattafa Khamrah Mira
Floral and sweet, with jasmine, chestnut and cocoa. Eau de Parfum for women, 100 ml.
Mira is the newest addition and is positioned by Lattafa as a women's fragrance. It is a floral gourmand: red currant, cinnamon and mandarin in the opening; jasmine sambac, orange blossom, Rosyfolia™ and chestnut in the heart; and benzoin, roasted tonka, vanilla, cocoa and musk in the base.
Where the original Khamrah centres on dates and praline, Mira puts the focus on white flowers, chestnut and cocoa. Khamrah Mira will be available at Arabmusk soon.
Waha or Mira: which suits you?
| Khamrah Waha | Khamrah Mira | |
|---|---|---|
| Character | Fresh, aromatic, woody | Floral, sweet (gourmand) |
| Positioned for | Unisex | Women |
| Standout notes | Yuzu, ginger, cucumber, sea salt | Red currant, jasmine, chestnut, cocoa |
| Size | 100 ml EDP | 100 ml EDP |
In short: if you like fresh and energetic, look at Waha. If you want something softer and sweeter with flowers, Mira is probably the better fit. Scent is personal: how a fragrance smells and how long it lasts varies from skin to skin. If in doubt, try a sample first where available.
