Al Absar Shahoor Platinum Eau de Parfum Decant

Al Absar Shahoor Platinum Eau de Parfum is a 2025 release from Al Absar, blended as a richer combination of the house's Shahoor Elixir and Shahoor Intense. It's a coffee-forward gourmand built for people who want dessert on skin without it turning cloying. This is a hand filled, 100% authentic fragrance decant from Fragrance ADDX, poured in Adelaide from the real Al Absar bottle.

Experience

Shahoor Platinum opens with bitter coffee, amaretto, lemon, candies and rum. Bitter coffee sets the tone immediately, cut by sweet amaretto and a citrus lift from lemon that stops the opening from tipping straight into dessert territory.

The heart brings vanilla, orange blossom and milk. Milk is the standout note here, adding a creamy, almost latte-like softness that ties the bitter coffee opening to the sweeter base that follows.

The drydown is sugar, ambroxan, vanilla, benzoin, amber and musk. Warm and sweet without being one-note. Community longevity reports vary widely, from 6-8 hours on some skin types up to 12-14 hours on others, which is common for this style of gourmand. Two to three sprays is a sensible starting point.

Key Notes

What Does Al Absar Shahoor Platinum Actually Smell Like?

Shahoor Platinum sits in coffee-gourmand territory, a category that's grown fast in Middle Eastern perfumery over the last couple of years. What separates it from simpler coffee scents is the milk and orange blossom heart, which softens the bitter coffee opening into something more rounded and wearable across longer stretches of the day.

It's built to layer sweetness against bitterness rather than lean fully into either, so if you find pure gourmands cloying but still want that coffee-dessert character, this is worth a look.

Longevity varies noticeably by skin type based on community reports, so testing in decant form before committing to a full bottle is the sensible move here. A 5ml or 10ml gives you enough wears to judge how it performs on your own skin.
