Khamrah Qahwa by Lattafa takes everything the world loves about the original Khamrah and stirs in rich Arabic coffee. Qahwa means coffee, and this is the warmer, darker sibling of the icon, blending cinnamon, cardamom and praline with a smooth espresso heart over creamy vanilla. For many collectors it has overtaken the original as the one they reach for.
The Scent Journey
The Opening: Qahwa opens like a spiced coffee house, with cinnamon, cardamom and a flicker of ginger. It is instantly warm and aromatic, sharper and more energising than the original Khamrah's bakery sweetness.
The Heart: The middle melts into praline and candied fruits, lifted by soft white flowers. The sweetness here is toasted rather than sugary, and the coffee begins to rise underneath it.
The Dry Down: The base is the star. Smooth coffee and vanilla blend with tonka bean, benzoin and musk into a rich, slightly boozy latte accord that stays close and comforting for hours.

Base notes: Vanilla, Coffee, Tonka Bean, Benzoin, Musk
Longevity and Performance
Outstanding, even by Lattafa standards. Expect 10 to 12 hours on skin with strong projection through the first half of the day, and it clings to knitwear and scarves far longer. Two sprays are genuinely enough.
When to Wear It
Suited to autumn and winter, when the coffee and spice feel richest in cold air. It is a natural evening and date night fragrance, and works beautifully through the festive season. Save it for cooler days rather than summer heat.
Khamrah Qahwa Within the Lattafa Family
If the original Khamrah is dates and vanilla, Qahwa is the same warmth poured over fresh coffee, slightly less sugary and a touch more mature. Gourmand lovers should also try Eclaire for a creamier caramel take, and the rest of our range lives in the full collection.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Khamrah and Khamrah Qahwa? The original is sweeter, built on dates and vanilla. Qahwa keeps the warm spice but adds a coffee note and dials the sugar back slightly, giving it a darker, more grown-up feel.
Is Khamrah Qahwa unisex? Yes. The spiced coffee character is warm and cosy rather than masculine or feminine, and it is loved by both.
How long does Khamrah Qahwa last? Typically 10 to 12 hours on skin, and noticeably longer on clothing. Performance is one of its biggest strengths.
Is Khamrah Qahwa good for winter? Yes. Cold weather is exactly where the coffee, spice and vanilla shine brightest.
