9PM Night Out
9PM Night Out by Afnan is a masculine-leaning extrait de parfum from 2025 in the budget price tier. It opens with bergamot, cognac, lavender and apple, moves into cardamom, suede, toffee and cedarwood and dries down to tonka bean, patchouli and ambroxan. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Cognac Boozy, fruity and warming. Richer and rounder than rum.
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
- Apple Crunchy and tart or soft and red, depending on the treatment.
Heart
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Suede Soft, powdery leather. Much gentler than the real thing.
- Toffee Buttery burnt sugar. Denser and chewier than caramel.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
Dry-down
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
