About Afnan

Craft-led, since 2007

Afnan presents itself as craft-led rather than trend-driven, with "confidence in expression" as its promise, and names Imran Fazlani as founder and chairman and Zaid Fazlani as CEO. The collections are many: Supremacy, Bouquet, 9AM/9PM, Turathi, Ornament, Modest, Edict, Souvenir, Mirsaal, Highness, Lynked, Portrait, Historic, Tribute, Rare and Kiaana among them.

Supremacy and Lynked

Afnan Supremacy Collectors Edition opens with pineapple, bergamot, apple and white flowers, turns to birch, amber and orange blossom and ends on oakmoss, musk and ambergris. Afnan Lynked Freedom, from the Lynked line, starts with bergamot, grapefruit and sage, moves to lavender, cardamom and juniper berry and ends on caramel and vetiver. Both are Eau de Parfum that FragranceGems lists for men, one fruity and mossy, the other aromatic with a sweet base.

Where to start

Afnan Supremacy Collectors Edition and Afnan Lynked Freedom are ordered equally often as samples at FragranceGems, so neither is the obvious first vial. Start with the one whose opening appeals, pineapple and apple or grapefruit and sage, and wear the other on a separate day. Both have a full pyramid on their sample page to read along with.

Afnan samples

Frequently asked

Which Afnan sample should I try first?

Afnan Supremacy Collectors Edition if you like a pineapple and bergamot opening over birch and amber with an oakmoss and musk base; Afnan Lynked Freedom if you prefer grapefruit, sage and lavender on caramel and vetiver. They are ordered equally often at FragranceGems.

Are the Afnan samples men's perfumes?

FragranceGems lists both Supremacy Collectors Edition and Lynked Freedom for men. Pineapple and white flowers in the first and caramel in the second make them softer than that label suggests, which a sample on your own skin lets you check.

Are these Afnan samples made by the brand?

No. FragranceGems fills each sample from the original Afnan bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it by hand. It is our decant; the house is not involved, and we are not affiliated with the brand.

  • Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !

    Rudy Review of the FragranceGems shop

  • Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
