If you're shopping for a perfume gift in Selangor and Afnan is on your list, two bottles keep coming up: Turathi Electric and Supremacy Not Only Intense. Both finish on a musky base, so there's a shared thread there, but they're really quite different perfumes. One is a fresh unisex EDP, the other is a bold extrait made for men. Here's how to work out which one goes into the gift bag.
What they have in common
Both perfumes list musk in their base notes, so if the person you're buying for likes that soft warmth underneath a scent, either pick covers it. Both are also listed for everyday, casual, formal and special occasions, so neither one sits in a drawer waiting for a big event. The real differences are in the opening notes, the concentration and who each bottle is made for, and that's where your decision actually happens.
Turathi Electric
Turathi Electric is a 90ml Eau de Parfum made for both men and women. If you're buying a gift and you're not sure of the person's taste, that unisex label makes it one of the easiest choices on the shelf.
The scent opens with bergamot and grapefruit, moves into a heart of lavender and patchouli, and settles on amber and musk. The store describes it as a woody citrus fragrance that feels energetic yet refined, and calls it perfect for Malaysia's tropical weather, which is handy because the heat and humidity around Selangor don't exactly take days off.
Because it works for anyone, it suits a partner, a colleague, a sibling, basically whoever is on your list. And since it's listed for casual days, the office, formal events and special occasions, the person receiving it will genuinely get use out of it rather than saving it for once a year.
Supremacy Not Only Intense
Supremacy Not Only Intense is a different animal: a 100ml Extrait de Parfum made for men. The store describes it as a bold masculine fragrance, and its notes run richer. It opens with black currant, bergamot and apple, moves through lavender, patchouli and oakmoss, and finishes on saffron, musk and ambergris.
It's described as ideal for evening wear or for when the wearer wants a commanding presence. So if your gift is for a man who likes a scent that gets noticed at dinner events, formal functions or a night out, this one fits that picture much better than something light and citrusy.
So which one do you gift?
- For a woman, a couple, or someone whose taste you don't know well: go with Turathi Electric. It's the unisex option, and the bergamot and grapefruit opening keeps things fresh and easy to like.
- For a man who leans towards bolder scents: Supremacy Not Only Intense is the one. It's made for men, and the apple, saffron and ambergris notes give it a deeper character.
- Practical difference: Turathi Electric comes as a 90ml EDP, while Supremacy Not Only Intense is a 100ml extrait. If the bigger bottle matters to you for the unwrapping moment, that's your tiebreaker.
One last thing: both are listed for formal and special occasions, so you can't really go wrong on versatility. Just match the bottle to the personality of the person opening it, and you're done.
