The deep, smoky air of an ancient spice market at twilight, where the aroma of oud and leather intermingles with fresh floral notes and a hint of sweetness.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2020 by Omanluxury, Khanjar is a unisex fragrance created by perfumers Philippe Paparella-Paris and Muatasim Al Hinai. The composition opens with bright citrus and aromatic notes like bergamot and lavender, giving way to the rich warmth of oud and leather. A heart of rose and immortelle adds depth before settling into an animalic base of ambergris, musk, and sandalwood. Khanjar is a fragrance that balances freshness and warmth, creating a complex and captivating scent.

How to wear it

Apply Khanjar to pulse points for maximum impact. The fragrance blooms over time, so a light application allows the rich base notes to develop gradually throughout the day.
