Afnan Supremacy Collector Edition is the Emirati brand's response to the demand for premium fruity fragrances with a defined masculine character. Unlike other versions of the Supremacy line, this edition limits its concentration and composition to create a specific aroma: fruity, powerful and versatile. The price is competitive compared to other luxury Arab fragrances (€54.99 at Elixir Perfumes), and its olfactory profile places it among the most accessible Aventus clones in the current Arab market.

Abbreviated technical datasheet

• Brand: Afnan (United Arab Emirates)
• Type: Eau de Parfum (concentration 15-20%)
• Volume: 100ml
• Gender: Unisex (designed for men)
• Top notes: Pineapple, bergamot, white flowers, amber
• Price: €54.99
• Available at: Physical and online stores at elixirperfumes.es

What makes Supremacy Collector Edition different?

Afnan's Supremacy line has been positioning itself for years as a reference in accessible Arab perfumery. However, each version (9PM, 9PM Elixir, 9PM Night Out) responds to a different brief. The Collector Edition focuses on fruity intensity without excess: it opens with bright pineapple and bergamot, allows white flowers to soften the structure midway through, and closes with a warm amber base that provides fixation without being cloying.

If we compare it with 9 PM Elixir by Afnan (€54.99), which is more spicy and sophisticated, Collector Edition wins in simplicity and initial fruity projection. It's a fragrance that works better in warm weather or spring, while Elixir is more versatile.

Verified olfactory notes

According to official information from Afnan and Fragrantica data, Supremacy Collector Edition contains:

• Top: Pineapple, bergamot, white flowers, apple
• Heart: Orange blossom, birch, amber
• Base: Oak moss, musk, woody notes

This composition explains why many users compare it with Club de Nuit Intense Man by Armaf, which shares the fruity-citric profile with warm musks at the finish. However, Armaf tends to be more spiced (includes black pepper), while Afnan prioritises pure fruit.

Supremacy versions: which one to choose?

The brand has three main interpretations under the Supremacy umbrella:

Supremacy In Heaven (classic version)

Supremacy In Heaven (€49.46 reduced from €54.95) is the most oriental: bergamot, mandarin, green tea and blackcurrant on opening; musk, sandalwood and wood at the base. Ideal for winter or cool days.

Supremacy Collector Edition (fresh fruity)

The version in question is the fruitiest and most summery. Medium-high projection, longevity 6-8 hours depending on skin type.

9 PM Elixir (sophisticated and powerful)

9 PM Elixir (€54.99) is Afnan's most luxurious expression in this line: it blends spices, dark florals and resins for a more oriental-gourmand effect.

Price and availability in Spain

At Elixir Perfumes, Supremacy Collector Edition sells for €54.99 for 100ml. This price is comparable to similar fragrances in the premium Arab market: it's more affordable than a genuine Aventus (~€150), but more expensive than basic fresh colognes from brands like Lattafa or Rave.

You can buy it directly from our online catalogue or by visiting any of our 6 physical stores in Spain (Madrid, Barcelona Galerias Malda, Barcelona Comtal, Seville, Malaga, Valencia). We ship from the United Arab Emirates directly with 24-72 hour delivery throughout mainland Spain via MRW.

Comparison with other Afnan fragrances

If you're unsure between Afnan options, here's some useful context. The Afnan line at Elixir includes everything from the accessible 9 AM for women (€40.49 reduced) to gems like Mystique Bouquet (€59.99, unisex floral-gourmand).

For men looking for fruity with character, Supremacy Collector Edition is the straightforward choice: it's neither as citric as 9 AM nor as spiced as Supremacy In Heaven.

Who is this fragrance for?

Supremacy Collector Edition fits perfectly with these profiles:

• Men who wear Aventus or are looking for a more affordable Arab clone
• Users of fruity fragrances (pineapple, apple, bergamot) with medium projection
• People who prefer versatile perfumes: works in the office, casual settings and light evening events
• Mediterranean or tropical climate: shines especially in spring-summer
• Age range: 25-45 years, though there's really no restriction

Durability and real projection

As an Eau de Parfum, it offers a concentration of aromatic compounds between 15-20%. The opening is immediate and projects well for the first 3-4 hours. The heart remains audible for a further 4-6 hours. The base persists on skin for 8-10 hours depending on your skin type (dry skin = more longevity).

On clothes, the persistence is greater (12+ hours). One spray (2-3 spritzes) is enough for an 8-hour event without needing to reapply.

Visual comparison: Supremacy Collector vs. alternative catalogue options

If you're looking for a similar profile at Elixir but from other brands, consider these:

Affordable alternative: YARA by Lattafa

YARA (€27.99) is sweeter: caramel, vanilla, sandalwood, musk. More gourmand, less fruity than Collector Edition. Half the price, but different structure.

Powerful alternative: Club de Nuit Intense by Armaf

Club de Nuit Intense (€42.99) is more spiced: pineapple, bergamot, black pepper, apple, patchouli. Familiar profile but more aggressive than Collector Edition. €8 cheaper, similar longevity.

Premium alternative: BARAKKAT ROUGE 540 Extrait

Barakkat Rouge 540 (€27.99 reduced from €39.99) is completely different: bitter almond, saffron, jasmine, amber. Unisex, oriental-leaning, nothing fruity. For those who want classic Arab luxury, not modern fruity.

Testimonials and community

Although Supremacy Collector Edition is recent (2025-2026), it already generates positive feedback in Arab perfume communities. Users highlight: consistent projection, matches the description, "great fragrance for the money" and seasonal versatility.

From the Elixir Perfumes team, trained in Arab perfumery since 2022, we recommend trying it at one of our physical stores before deciding, especially if you're new to oriental fruity fragrances. Each skin reacts differently.

Frequently asked questions

Is Afnan Supremacy Collector Edition a clone of Aventus?

Not exactly. It shares the fruity-amber profile and projection with Creed Aventus, but has its own composition: it's more floral at the heart (white flowers vs. spices) and sweeter at the finish. It's an Arab "homage" to that style, not a direct copy.

What's the difference between Collector Edition and 9PM Elixir by Afnan?

Collector Edition is fruitier and fresher; 9PM Elixir is spicier and darker. Collector works better in summer; Elixir all year round. Same price (€54.99), but very different character.

Will it last all day?

Yes, longevity on skin is 6-8 hours depending on your skin type. On clothes, it persists 12+ hours. A couple of spritzes in the morning is enough for a full day without needing to reapply.

Can I buy it in a physical store?

Yes. Available at our 6 physical stores in Spain: Madrid, Barcelona (2 locations), Seville, Malaga and Valencia. You can try it before deciding.

Is there a discount if I buy several?

Contact our team at clientes@zubinvest.com for promotions on multiple purchases. Physical stores also have seasonal offers.

Is it truly unisex or is it more for men?

It's technically unisex, but designed with masculine logic: fruity but with character, without sweet florals or overly delicate spices. A woman who enjoys powerful fruity fragrances will wear it without issue. A woman who prefers classic florals will probably find it too "masculine".

How should I store it for it to last longer?

Away from direct light, stable temperatures (15-25°C ideal), without sudden temperature changes. The bathroom is not ideal (humidity). A dark cupboard or jewellery box is perfect. The 100ml bottle will last 1-2 years with normal use (2-3 spritzes daily).
