+Afnan 9PM Night Out Eau de Parfum 100ml – Boozy Fruit Meets Suede
Afnan 9PM Night Out is the most ambitious release in the 9PM line to date, composed by celebrated perfumer Quentin Bisch under the creative direction of Imran Fazlani. It takes the sweet, party-ready DNA of the original and rebuilds it around cognac, dragon fruit and suede — a sharper, more expensive-smelling take on the night-out fragrance.
What Does 9PM Night Out Smell Like?
The opening is cold and boozy: dragon fruit and apple doused in cognac, with bergamot and lavender cutting through the sweetness. It reads almost frozen for the first few minutes. The heart shifts texture entirely — cardamom and mahonial bring a luminous, clean floral edge while suede and toffee add a creamy, leathery weight that keeps the sweetness in check. The base is thick and balsamic: tonka bean, akigalawood, ambrofix and patchouli deliver a warm, skin-like woodiness that lasts well into the following morning.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Night Out different from the original 9PM?
The original is sweet apple, cinnamon and vanilla. Night Out is boozier and more textured — cognac, dragon fruit and suede in place of the straightforward sweetness, with noticeably better blending.
Who composed 9PM Night Out?
Quentin Bisch, a perfumer known for work across major niche and designer houses, which is unusual for a fragrance at this price point.
How long does it last?
It is among the longest-lasting fragrances Afnan has produced — commonly 12 hours or more, and considerably longer on fabric.
Is it worth the upgrade over standard 9PM?
If you want more complexity and a less sugary profile, yes. If you love the original's simple sweetness, stay with it.
