Fragrance Character
Mabra Parfums Akhdar is a niche unisex fragrance in extrait de parfum concentration, released in 2024.
The composition belongs to the chypre and woody fragrance families, combining fresh greenery, dry woody nuances, and deep balsamic accords.
This release was created by the French house Mabra Parfums, which appeared on France's fragrance map in 2021.
For the young brand, Akhdar feels like a confident statement: the fragrance demonstrates an interest in expressive niche compositions, where natural freshness gradually gives way to a rich, almost meditative depth.
Development and Mood
Akhdar opens with a cool, green, and energetic impression.
Bergamot illuminates the composition with citrus clarity, hemp adds a distinctive herbal nuance, while vetiver immediately establishes a dry, woody-earthy direction.
As it develops, the fragrance becomes more structured and expansive.
Amyris and Atlas cedar form a smooth woody framework, green tea maintains a sense of cleanliness, and mint lends the heart a cool aromatic transparency.
The drydown is built around incense, resinous, and woody nuances.
Labdanum, patchouli, and Peruvian balsam make the base warm and rich, while incense and vetiver preserve its dryness, texture, and unmistakable chypre contrast.
Sillage and Wearability
Mabra Parfums Akhdar is described as having very strong sillage, so the fragrance is intended to make a noticeable impression.
The extrait develops especially expressively on the skin, leaving behind a spicy-green, woody-resinous trail.
This is a unisex perfume for those who enjoy rich, characterful compositions and do not wish to go unnoticed.
Akhdar is well suited to cool weather, evenings, special occasions, or moments when you want to emphasize your individuality; in hot weather, its dense character is best applied with particular restraint.
Specific recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing are not provided in the database.
Given its high longevity and very strong sillage, it is sensible to start with a minimal application and assess its development after a few minutes.
The Perfumer and the Brand's Style
The composition was created by Brahim Mohamed.
In his work, Akhdar combines a fresh green impulse with a dark resinous base, keeping the fragrance from being reduced to a simple woody or citrus scent.
Year of release: 2024.
Akhdar shows how a young French brand can approach a dense extrait formula in a modern way: it brings together the purity of green tea, the coolness of mint, and the expressive depth of incense, labdanum, and patchouli.
