Khadlaj 25 Trust is a newer release, launched in 2025 as part of Khadlaj's 25th-anniversary lineup, with a fresh, food-adjacent gourmand profile built around vanilla, caramel and pistachio. It's a good fit for anyone who enjoys sweet, warm fragrances without reaching for anything overly heavy or smoky, and its moderate sillage makes it easy to wear in close settings like the office or a warm South African evening.

Khadlaj 25 Trust opens with vanilla and bergamot, moves through pistachio, jasmine and raspberry, then settles into caramel, tonka, sandalwood and musk — a warm, sweet gourmand with a powdery, woody edge. On Fragrantica, 72% of wearers rate its sillage moderate, making it a comfortable, close-wearing scent for day or night.
Khadlaj 25 Trust builds around vanilla, layered from the first spray through to the base — Fragrantica's community places vanilla as the single strongest accord, followed by sweet, woody, caramel and powdery. Top notes are vanilla and bergamot, giving a bright citrus lift. Pistachio, jasmine and raspberry sit at the heart, softened by white floral and warm spicy accords. Caramel, tonka, sandalwood and musk anchor the base, with a light balsamic warmth underneath. The overall effect reads as a sweet, powdery gourmand — closer to a vanilla-caramel dessert scent than a classic floral or woody composition.
The opening leads with vanilla and bergamot — a soft, citrus-brightened sweetness rather than anything sharp. Through the heart, pistachio, jasmine and raspberry add a nutty, fruity-floral turn, keeping the sweetness from feeling one-note. As it settles, caramel, tonka, sandalwood and musk take over, pulling the fragrance into a warmer, powdery-woody dry-down. There is no smoke, incense or oud in the notes — the progression stays gourmand and warm-sweet from open to close, gaining depth rather than changing direction.
Fragrantica's community voting (25 responses each for longevity and sillage — a small sample, so treat this as a lean rather than a verdict) puts longevity mostly in the moderate range: 52% say moderate, 32% say long lasting, with only a handful voting weak or eternal. Sillage skews soft: 72% call it moderate, 16% strong. In practice that reads as a fragrance that sits close to skin rather than filling a room, lasting through a normal day without needing much reapplication. Fragrantica community voting. See the full breakdown.
Seasonal voting spreads fairly evenly, with a slight lean to autumn (31%) and spring (29%), followed by winter (25%) and summer (14%). That fits the profile — sweet, warm, caramel-led scents like this one tend to work best outside peak heat, though nothing here rules out an evening summer wear.
Khadlaj 25 Trust is built and marketed as unisex, and the notes don't lean hard toward either a classically masculine or feminine profile — vanilla, caramel and pistachio sit in gourmand territory that wears well on anyone. Fragrantica's gender voting agrees, based on a small sample of 29 votes: unisex is the single largest response (45%), with the rest split fairly evenly between female-leaning and male-leaning, and no votes for strictly male. We list it as unisex.
Fragrantica's community-linked comparisons place Khadlaj 25 Trust closest to Khair Pistachio by Paris Corner, a pistachio-vanilla gourmand that shares its nutty-sweet accord structure. It's a useful reference point for the general character, not a claim that the two fragrances are the same. If you'd rather stay with a fragrance we carry, Johayna Green is another Khadlaj gourmand Fragrantica links to this one, built on the same caramel-pistachio character.

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.
