Khair Confection

Oh my god. 💮🍬🧁🍓🥥 To start off, I have actually bought a 10ml decant of this perfume before during early 2025, however I couldn't differentiate it between this and Nebras. Maybe the seller mixed up but that's another story. This is a steal. I got this around 20$ for the full 100ml bottle and I never regret it. It just came recently and when I take a whiff of it, it's one of the most best olfactory sensations I've had all week. The manufacturing date on the box says it was produced on October of 2024, so that means it had 13 months to macerate What I'm smelling now is more than a years worth of a fragrance slowly blending it's mix for it to enhance their scent even further, and the recently bought bottle that I had which in fact, is the exact same seller that I bought the 10ml decant a while back, had been sitting for a while inside of the sellers warehouse or whatever. I didn't regret my purchase and I'm proud that I now have a full bottle of goodness. Maybe it's just me that enjoy sweet perfumes, especially feminine-marketed ones, but I don't care, there should be some kind of revolution that redefines gender-specific traits further with fragrances, and I'm relieved to see that with Eilish No. 2 and Khamrah as well as the Qahwa variant. It's totally subjective to determine whether a perfume is more suitable towards a specific gender, like when some people say when this perfume is more masculine leaning or otherwise. I'm that crazy for this perfume in particular, and I've had Pink Sugar which is kind of a pass because of its synthetic smell and tackiness. And it's a little more expensive. 🍬🍭🍬🍭🍬🍭🍬🍭🍬🍭🍭🍬🍭🍭🍬🍭🍬🍭🍬

There's hardly anything in this world comparing to the feeling when you blind buy a perfume and out of nowhere, it turns out to be your new favourite. I was looking for pear summer perfume for long time. I know what Kayali smells like and heard Khair Confection is the exact same scent. It is out of stock everywhere in the UK so felt like I won the lottery when I finally ordered my bottle. It arrived yesterday and it is the one. Not to be too dramatic, but I want to drink this perfume, then fill my bathtub with it and happily drown there. And it's not even macerated yet. If you are buying this because you like VCRS, wait for the dry down. Opening is completely different. Very heavy on pear (lovely) and there's a tiny bit of bubblegum in the background. Once it's settled on your skin and clothes it's pretty much 1:1 Kayali. There's something really fresh about this fragrance, aquatic notes are real. It's sweet but not cloiyng, carefree, playful, sexy and summery. It's that type of perfume that makes you sit next to some stranger on the bus and missing your stop just because they smell divine. Can't wait to see how it turns out after maceration but it's a long lasting banger straight from the bottle so it can only get better. Don't listen to the comments here, some of them are unhinged. PS. And watch out for fakes. Internet is FULL of fake Khairs for some reason.

Confection came to live in the cold, dark closet a month ago. This was the 3rd test, 3rd times the charm. Like the other Khairs, 3-4 weeks seems to be their sweet spot for maturity. The pear & whipped cream opening is my favorite, sweet, fresh, creamy. The florals come in smooth from the cashmeran, no sharpness. The ylang ylang is sweet as well. The pear remains throughout, but is just blended with the base. The base is warm, fluffy, with a slight woodiness, & so smooth. That’s the key word to describe this, smooth. Confection is sweet, fresh, warm, & comfy. I like it so much more than a month ago, very nice. I smell it projecting from every move I make. It is not loud, but not whispering either. I know I should get about 5 hrs on skin, clothing about 12. I was afraid this would be too youthful for me, but no, the blend is suited for anyone. This is great for layering to soften & sweeten other fragrances up. I want the oil to do just that & to enhance the edp. Now I have to test which environment it will shine the most. May be too sweet for our hot, humid Summers. We’ll see next year. It is pretty cool here now, but humid. Verdict is still out on that one. I think you would be safe in a controlled environment for sure because it is so smooth. This is lovely, there is not a bad fragrance in the Khair line. 10/10

**UPDATE**: I don't grab for this as much as I use to now that my collection has grown. HOWEVER, when I do wear it, it's for more of a reminiscent vibe. Still love it. __________________________________________________ When I don't know what to wear, this is my automatic grab. If I don't want to wear this I move on, but this fragrance?....this is my default. Something about a pear note my skin chemistry LOVES, so was excited to try this one; and one of my favorite online scent people personally recommended it to me so it comes as a double excitement! Initially when I bought it, the opening was a bit screechy, but as time has gone by it has matured a bit, and mellowed into this sweet, beautiful easy-to-wear fragrance. It's such an easy grab for me when I don't know what I feel like wearing. I have almost doubled my fragrance collection in the last 6 months so I haven't worn it as much as I use to--but she is great. It's youthful, but in a mature way. Maybe a better way to put that is it doesn't take itself too seriously. This fragrance is light, fun, and at 43 I can easily wear this--and get complimented regularly when I do. Not as candy sweet as Yara Candy, not as finished as Kayali--but I choose this over those two EVERY day!

On cotton: Sweet, pleasant, not gourmand and not as fun or bright as expected. Meh... It reminds me of certain sweets that I can't exactly recall, but then it's kinda perfumey...muddy idk. Maybe I just dislike the pear+sandalwood after all. Most say it's very juvenile - I strongly disagree. In fact, it's more mature than I wanted it to be. It's way more "mature" than Yara Candy and not as sexy. The drydown is quite woody-animalic and I don't understand where it comes from...what notes?! On my skin: much brighter and frutier, similar to YC's opening and I enjoy it more. Even though it doesn't have the characteristic ME vibes, one can still tell it's ME, not French. 🩷💙Update after 3 months of maceration: It has become much better, sweeter, more candied, still "mature", but it's uplifting. It still has something synthetic like a balloon note, but it doesn't bother me much. It's not tart or sour like Yara Candy. The only thing I dislike is its drydown. Too woody-ME. If it was e.g. a vanilla drydown, it would be amazing! Why did they choose the woodiness? 😅 Also, only now I start to clearly get the pear+cream yumminess!!! From "like" to "love"!!! 🥰🥰🥰
