Afnan 9PM Eau de Parfum for Men is a bold, gourmand powerhouse crafted for evening allure. Opening on crisp apple, bergamot, lavender, and cinnamon, it delivers an instantly sweet and spicy burst reminiscent of bubblegum and fruit punch.

In its heart, delicate orange blossom and lily‑of‑the‑valley soften the sweetness, paving the way for a rich base of vanilla, tonka bean, amber, and patchouli. The creamy vanilla and warm tonka add depth, while amber grounds the composition with elegant earthiness.

Performance is a standout. Expect 8–10 hours of longevity on skin, often with residual scent on clothing the next day, and strong projection lasting several hours. Some batches may require maceration—a few weeks of rest—to fully reveal optimal projection and balance.

Comparisons to Jean Paul Gaultier’s Ultra Male are frequent: about 80–90 % similar in scent profile, though Afnan 9PM leans sweeter and warmer, trading Ultra Male’s pear note for juicy apple. Enthusiasts describe it as “monster mode” for its crowd‑pleasing, attention‑grabbing aura —though its intense sweetness may overwhelm in hot weather or be polarizing to sensitive noses.

Ideal for date nights, clubs, winter and fall outings, this fragrance earns praise for its premium feel at a wallet‑friendly price. While maybe not for daily office wear, Afnan 9PM EDP remains a top‑tier choice for those seeking a sexy, luxurious, and long‑lasting gourmand.
