Afnan Comparison Guide: Turathi Electric or Supremacy Not Only Intense? (Evening, Melaka)

Evenings in Melaka hit different. Whether it's dinner near the river, a night out at the malls or a special occasion coming up, the right perfume just makes the whole thing feel more put together. Today we're comparing two Afnan options that work for night-time wear: Turathi Electric and Supremacy Not Only Intense. One is unisex and fresh, the other is a men's extrait with a bolder personality. Let's break them down.

Turathi Electric – the fresh, unisex pick

Turathi Electric is a unisex Eau de Parfum in a 90ml bottle, so it's a solid choice if you and your partner want to share one perfume. It's a woody citrus scent, and the store describes it as energetic yet refined.

• Top notes: Bergamot and grapefruit, so it opens bright and citrusy.
• Heart notes: Lavender and patchouli give it a smooth, slightly herbal middle.
• Base notes: Amber and musk wrap things up warmly.

Because of that fresh citrus opening, it sits nicely on hot, humid Melaka nights, and it won't feel out of place in an air-conditioned restaurant either. The occasion list covers casual wear, everyday use, formal events and special occasions, so it's genuinely flexible. If you like the idea of one bottle that goes from a weekend outing to a dinner date, this is the one to look at.

Supremacy Not Only Intense – the bold men's option

Supremacy Not Only Intense is a different animal. It comes as an Extrait de Parfum in a 100ml bottle, and extrait is a more concentrated perfume format than an EDP. It's made for men, and the store describes it as a bold masculine fragrance with a commanding presence, ideal for evening wear.

• Top notes: Black currant, bergamot and apple, so the opening is fruity with a citrus edge.
• Heart notes: Lavender, patchouli and oak moss.
• Base notes: Saffron, musk and ambergris for the finishing trail.

If you're a guy who wants something with a bit more character for dinners and night events, this is the direction to go. It's not a one-night-only bottle either, since everyday, casual and formal are all on its occasion list.

So, which one is for you?

Both perfumes share bergamot, lavender and patchouli, but they go different ways after that:

• Sharing a bottle? Turathi Electric is the unisex one, so it works for both men and women.
• Want fresh and citrusy? Turathi Electric leads with bergamot and grapefruit.
• Want something fruitier and bolder for nights out? Supremacy Not Only Intense brings black currant, apple and saffron in an extrait format.
• Bottle size: 90ml for Turathi Electric, 100ml for Supremacy Not Only Intense.

Both list formal and special occasions among their uses, so for an evening out in Melaka you can't really go wrong with either. It comes down to one simple question: fresh and unisex, or bold and masculine?
