9 PM Night Out opens with dragon fruit (pitahaya), lavender, cognac, apple and bergamot, moving into a toffee and cardamom heart softened by suede and cedar, then settling into tonka bean, patchouli, Akigalawood and Ambrofix for a warm, resinous close. Fragrantica's community voting (903 longevity votes) calls it long-lasting for 64% of wearers, with a further 22% rating it eternal.
9 PM Night Out is a 2026 Oriental Spicy fragrance from Afnan. It opens with an unusual pairing of Pitahaya (dragon fruit) and Lavender, joined by Cognac, Apple and Bergamot — a bright, slightly liqueur-like freshness rather than a plain citrus opening. The heart brings Toffee, Suede, Cardamom, Cedar and Mahonial, moving the scent toward a warmer, softly leathery character. The base is Tonka Bean, Ambrofix™, Akigalawood and Patchouli — woody, resinous and lightly sweet, stopping short of a heavy gourmand finish.
Fragrantica's accord breakdown puts woody at 100% strength, with fruity (89%) and warm spicy (86%) close behind, then sweet (72%), tropical (69%), aromatic (64%), lavender (50%) and floral (46%) rounding it out. The overall effect reads as a modern woody-spicy blend with a fruity edge rather than a classic oriental.
The opening leads with dragon fruit, lavender, cognac and bergamot, giving an unusual bright-and-boozy freshness. The toffee, cardamom and suede heart follows, warming the scent and adding a soft leathery texture. It dries down into tonka bean, patchouli and woody Akigalawood and Ambrofix, where the sweetness stays restrained against the resinous woods. Fragrantica voters lean strongly toward evening wear — 71% log it as a night scent against 29% for day.
Of 903 Fragrantica longevity votes, the largest group (64%) rate 9 PM Night Out's staying power as long-lasting, with a further 22% calling it eternal and 12% moderate; only 2% find it weak or very weak. Sillage tracks strong as well: of 907 votes, 62% describe its projection as strong and 19% as enormous, with 17% calling it moderate and 2% more intimate and skin-close. Fragrantica community voting. See the full breakdown.
Season votes spread across the cooler months — winter (31%), spring (27%) and autumn (27%) are close together, with summer (15%) well behind. It leans toward cool-weather wear for most of the year, with summer very much the exception.
Afnan lists 9 PM Night Out as unisex, and Fragrantica's gender voting is mixed — 49% male-leaning and 28% male against 19% unisex and under 4% female of 874 votes. FG follows the brand's own unisex framing rather than the male lean in the votes alone; wear it if the profile suits you.
Fragrantica's community voting links 9 PM Night Out most closely to Forever Wanted Elixir by Azzaro, suggesting the two share a similar warm, fruity-spicy shape. New to this style? If you enjoy Azzaro's Wanted line, you'll recognise the shape here. If you'd rather stay with a fragrance FG carries, Bade'e Al Oud Honor & Glory by Lattafa is another Fragrantica-linked match, in stock now.

Wide range of budget friendly to relatively high end priced perfume brands. Rayhan, Armaf, French Avenue, Brandy, Lattafa just to mention a few. They also sell a 10ml of any brand you like, good for testing before you commit to the whole bottle.
This store reminds me of my days in Dubai. Prices are competitive and most probably the best I have found on the market. Amazing perfumes!
Shahed was very welcoming and friendly… He was knowledgeable about the perfumes and took the time to understand what I was looking for before recommending a fragrance that suited my preferences perfectly.
What a good find! A place where you can smell all the Dubai perfumes. Monique assisted us and she was very helpful. Will see you soon!
Customer service 10/10. Tamzyn helped me she was very nice energetic and helpful… when I heard the price I had to take it. So very affordable in my opinion.
The quality of the fragrances is outstanding. The oils and perfumes are impressive and has longevity… I will definitely be returning and recommending this shop to others.
He was very helpful and friendly as I did not have a clue of what I wanted to get for my mom… It smells very nice. I got compliments at work… I would recommend people to go here.
