Khamrah vs Khamrah Qahwa vs Khamrah Dukhan: Which One in Lebanon?
Share
Khamrah Qahwa is the one to pick if you like coffee. Khamrah is the sweet, spicy classic of the line, and Khamrah Dukhan is the smoky one, with incense and tobacco. Cedar Perfume stocks all three in Lebanon with cash on delivery, and prices are what the store shows at the time of writing, in USD.
Which Khamrah versions do you sell?
All three are Lattafa eau de parfum. The notes below come from our product pages. We do not list a Khamrah Waha, so it is not covered here.

What does Khamrah smell like?
Khamrah is the classic of the three. It opens with cinnamon and nutmeg over bergamot. Dates and praline make the heart, and vanilla, tonka bean and myrrh make the base. It reads as sweet and spicy. It is inspired by Kilian Angels' Share.
What is different about Khamrah Qahwa?
Khamrah Qahwa swaps nutmeg and dates for cardamom, ginger and a coffee note in the base. Praline and candied fruits stay in the heart. The coffee note is the main difference from the classic Khamrah.
Is Khamrah Dukhan really smoky?
Khamrah Dukhan is the smokiest of the three. Incense, labdanum and patchouli in the heart, with tobacco in the base, give it a smoky, resinous character. Praline and amber still add sweetness at the base.
How do I choose between them?
Read the top notes first, because they are what you smell on opening. Khamrah starts with cinnamon, nutmeg and bergamot, which is spicy with a bergamot lift. Khamrah Qahwa starts with cinnamon, cardamom and ginger, which is warm and spicy. Khamrah Dukhan starts with pimento and mandarin, which is warm and spiced.
Then look at the base. Tonka bean and praline appear in all three. In Khamrah and Khamrah Qahwa vanilla joins tonka bean in the base; Khamrah Dukhan has tobacco, amber and benzoin instead. On top of that sweetness, Khamrah has myrrh and amberwood, Khamrah Qahwa has coffee and musk, and Khamrah Dukhan has tobacco and amber.
If you have never tried this style, the classic Khamrah is the simplest place to start. If you already like coffee-flavoured sweets, Qahwa is the closer match. If you like incense or smoky scents, go to Dukhan.
Which Khamrah is for fall and winter?
Khamrah and Khamrah Qahwa are both listed as unisex, for fall and winter. That points to cooler months. Khamrah Dukhan has no season listed in our store, so we cannot say when it suits best.
Which Khamrah should I pick?
- The classic sweet and spicy scent: Khamrah.
- Coffee and cardamom: Khamrah Qahwa.
- Smoky, incense-style scents: Khamrah Dukhan.
- The lowest price: Khamrah Dukhan at $32, against $35 for the other two.
