It’s a fragrance that can become tiring, perhaps due to the hype and the massive use of Creed or fragrances from that line. In my case, batch 2021/22, it lasts 7 hours on skin, longer on clothes, with great projection. It’s a mix between Creed and Nishane Hacivat; I’d say it’s a spicier, more oriental Creed, perfect for summer, autumn, and winter thanks to its spicy touch. Be careful in summer and use few sprays. Excellent quality for the price. If you’re looking for a CDNI style, skip it and go for the Supremacy, which offers better quality and performance. I’d buy it for the price, but in my case, it overwhelms me, so I’ll use it occasionally. I always receive compliments when I wear it.
My first Afnan along with the 9am; I love it and the performance is brutal. I haven’t tried Nishane, but I have tried Creed Aventus, and it has quite a similarity. I love the scent, the presentation, and the projection, though I need to test the longevity. It’s very good.
Beautiful opening, strong and potent, citrusy, not quite Creed, then it settles and resembles it a lot. Heavy sillage, very noticeable, ideal for summer nights or dates. Moderate with applications to avoid overwhelming, since it’s an extract and very intense. Best for ages 30/35.
I don’t know either Hacivat or Aventus, but I must say it lasts like a beast; even if you stop smelling it yourself, others definitely notice it. Great scent.
I was looking for a Hacivat dupe in this decant and didn’t find it. Anyone wanting Hacivat will have to spend their dollars because Hawas doesn’t smell the same, and Al Dana smells like mothballs. For those who don’t know similar scents: smoky, citrusy, and rough opening. It’s a good aroma that later settles into a scent I don’t like, like old man’s clothes. For those who do know: the opening resembles the CDNI but is fruitier and less smoky. Its evolution takes on smoky notes, and the drydown closely resembles Montblanc Explorer due to that dirty ambroxan. It’s rich, but not that much; unfortunately, it’s mediocre.
It has a beautiful DNA, one of the few where putting your nose directly on the application feels totally pleasant.
I was expecting something more potent than Supremacy Silver, but this is smokier and mossier. Despite that, I absolutely love the scent. The performance is surprising: it’s not a beast at first, but a restrained fragrance that lasts forever. It doesn’t smell synthetic or cheap; it stands up to expensive fragrances, and the price is excellent.
Aventus/Nishane DNA but less versatile and more mature. It’s a rich scent, but I see it for people over 35-40; at 24, it smells like a 50-year-old on me, probably due to the patchouli moss and saffron. The opening is rich, but the drydown becomes smoky and earthy, very mature for my taste. It has excellent value and performance as an EXDP. If you want versatility, go for the CDNI EDP, though it’s a great alternative to that cloned DNA. Armaf NOI remains one of the best clones.
Incredible what you get for the price of this Afnan. It reminds me a lot of Cedrat Boise minus the vanilla-like anise, but this one is heavier on the smokiness. In terms of longevity, it easily hits 8 hours, and I’ve been told it’s still detectable at about 3 meters even after 4 hours. Given the cost and the scent, I feel it’s a better option than Club de Nuit, Vibrant Leather, or Explorer. In quality, it surpasses CDN; in longevity, it beats Zara; and in price, it’s better than Explorer; I’d say the quality feels similar. I’d compare it more to Hacivat than Aventus, although with so many batches of the latter, you never know. I’d wear it between casual and semi-formal, more in the afternoon than at night, and I wouldn’t wear it in the mornings. All-weather, despite the fruity notes, the smokiness gives it a fairly mature touch, so I’d recommend it for over 25 years old.
To simplify: since it’s an Aventus dupe, we have to talk about differences. The opening is identical, but as it dries down quickly, a patchouli moss emerges that dominates the fruitiness, giving it a mature, serious smokiness typical of men over 40. That note takes away a bit of the youthful appeal and makes it smell like a math professor’s cologne. It’s a more elegant alternative to other inspirations, ideal for formal occasions. Sillage and performance are 10/10; it lasts about 7 hours on skin with great projection. Recommended if you’re looking for something formal with that DNA.
I see it as an Aventus that swaps its bright freshness for a sweet acid evolving into something mossy, earthy (with incense hints, like it was worn by smokers), and musky. It’s the most formal, dark, and elegant in the line. Women don’t find it instantly charming; personally, I’d recommend the Explorer for dates or casual wear.
It has the Aventus DNA, but it doesn’t create the same effect. Aventus is a gentleman, while SNOI is quite a raw Viking. Aventus is made to please; it’s a rounded, sweeter, and notably kinder aroma. SNOI is sharper, citrusy, marine, and smokier—more of everything, but not necessarily better. It’s not subtle; it doesn’t please everyone; it’s overwhelming and even too strong for summer. My favorite point is how a single DNA can be transformed by tweaking the notes (not subtly, though). Probably the best performance in my collection alongside Atlas. I love it.
SUPREMACY in all caps. Very similar to both Aventus and Nishane. Lasts and projects like crazy, incredible from the opening all the way to the dry-down. The packaging is a work of art. It doesn’t feel absolutely synthetic at all. Great quality at a ridiculous price. Club de Nuit can’t even come close; Supremacy NOI exudes quality without that synthetic opening found in CDN. Safe to buy blind, perfect for ages 25-40 due to its woody notes. Occasionally, you catch a hint of Dior Homme Sport, then the Aventus DNA kicks in. MARVELOUS. 10/10.
I’m writing this review from a beginner’s perspective. I think it should be bumped up a few notches in the citrus and fresh spicy categories, and dialed down slightly in the fruity category. The opening is totally refreshing; I detect a lot of bergamot, above the cranberry and to a lesser extent green apple. The opening is quite potent; it permeates the room with just a couple of sprays. As the opening notes fade, the moss appears. I get the impression of being in a humid forest, with mist or mystery, not a fresh and radiant one. I like this dark forest vibe it projects. When it dries down, it combines with skin pH to give a very musky scent, along with ambergris, a very masculine sensation. In terms of longevity, no issues; I can still smell it after 7-8 hours. It’s a fragrance with great longevity and a wide trail. It announces its arrival from afar. I find it ideal for spring and summer; I’ve only tested it during the day. I’m not much of a fan of trendy Arabic fragrances, but Afnan did a GREAT job with this Supremacy Not Only Intense; it’s excellent value for money.
Supremacy Not Only Intense is a quality masterpiece by Afnan, clearly inspired by Nishane’s Hacivat. It takes that Aventus-style DNA and adds a mossy touch that gives it a distinctive and interesting appeal. The evolution from the opening to the dry-down is rich and captivating; with this perfume, compliments will rain down on you. Its performance is more than acceptable, and the value for money is excellent. I recommend it wholeheartedly; it’s a true delight.
Very rich and long-lasting aroma, doesn’t smell synthetic, gets compliments, and the trail is excellent. One of my favorites.
How does this compare to Nishane Hacivat? I tried Hacivat, and they don’t resemble each other at all. This is just another Aventus copy.
I don’t understand those who say this is a Hacivat dupe. It’s not a bad perfume; it’s more of a youthful Aventus, slightly sweetened with pineapple, less smoky but rougher, more earthy due to the cranberry and woods. From Hacivat, it only has a bit of moss. I was looking for a Hacivat dupe, but the scent isn’t similar, and I’m not regretting it because it’s very good; I see it as more formal. The quality is good, though if you’re looking for a Hacivat dupe, I’d lean more toward Hawas Black; that one actually resembles it.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t like I expected. I imagined it more fruity, but to be honest, the fruity notes last very little, maybe 10 minutes at most. Then I perceive more smoky and mossy notes. And unfortunately, it doesn’t last long on me, about 6 hours. Still, you can tell it’s quality.
Comparing Aventus clones (without having tried the original), among Club de Nuit EDT/EDP, L’Adventure, and Afnan’s Supremacy, the latter is my favorite for its aromatic quality, followed by Al Haramain. It’s a bit sweeter, mossy, and long-lasting. It has an air of nobility; honestly, I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone under 30.
I don’t see any difference between this and Club de Nuit Intense EDT.
I know this is just my case, but Supremacy Not Only Intense didn’t meet my expectations despite everything I read. I looked for it at an authorized Afnan distributor in Mexico that sells originals and has good reviews. The scent was amazing: blackcurrants with bergamot at the start, then that rich smoky moss and patchouli. It’s rich and captivating, but it only lasted 4 hours and the sillage was 1 hour. On paper it doesn’t fade, seems like an extract, but it doesn’t last longer; I have another Afnan EDP that does. It’s a ‘best mode’ that didn’t work on my skin, with moderate and soft sillage. I’ll see if my pH is the problem, I think it needs an acidic one between 5 and 6. For now, the scent was amazing.
Afnan Supremacy Not Only Intense, awesome! I’ve been buying it for over 4 years, that’s 12 bottles. For me, it’s Afnan’s super perfume. It’s perfect for people with very acidic skin pH between 5.5 and 6.8, it gives freshness and a lot of lasting time. I’m looking for it right now to buy again.
I liked it quite a bit at first, but with use and oxidation, as it dried down, it became very similar to any Vibrant Leather, even seeming vulgar. Honestly, I think Club de Nuit Intense goes too far even if it performs less, and inspirations like Hacivat Hawas Black by Rasasi or Al Dana by Lattafa are infinitely better. Longevity and projection are excellent.
Elegant and easy-to-wear fragrance. Starts with a soft fresh touch that blends into a warm, comforting base. The blend is fluid and well-integrated, perfect for day or night. It’s not overpowering, but leaves a subtle trail that others notice. While it doesn’t stand out as a statement scent, it’s a safe and classic choice for everyday wear or casual outings. Perfect for those who prefer understated sophistication.
I love it, the opening smells like Aventus but then becomes deeper and stronger. I imagine that’s why they say it’s like Nishan, I’ve never tried it but now I’m dying to. It lasts over 8 or 10 hours and its projection is brutal, about 4 or 5 hours on my skin.
Why so much pineapple? Where do you get it, Vikings? Sure, from gathering the best elixir for a feast… it seems we got dessert pineapple without the blackcurrants or apple. SNOI begins with a powerful, vivid fruity explosion, like opening a juicy pineapple, without the cloying syrup of certain niche brands. It’s sweet, yes, but fresh, vibrant, and slightly smoky—a sun-ripened fruit. Interestingly, this pineapple, the absolute protagonist, isn’t listed in the notes, a mystery that enhances its impact. Then comes the transition: the Vikings sit down after the party, quiet. This is my favorite part, the drydown: a vetiver or that oakmoss that rises with aplomb. Rich, dry, deep, like fertile earth. It embraces and tames the remaining sweetness, transforming it into character. Here everything elevates, revealing a mature and seductive profile, intimate and close. I think it’s totally unisex; I see it as slightly masculine, serene, and seductive. Very versatile: day, work, special occasions. For me, it’s even more cheerful at night. Longevity is notable: 4-6 hours in summer, could reach 10 in winter, but I’ll confirm later. The box hints at it: ‘This is Supremacy, but not just anyone’s. Not the one who shouts the loudest, but the one who masters their strength.’ True luxury, real niche. In this market, it seems like a battle between houses like Afnan and Armaf, even a parallel in names: ‘Supremacy Not Only Intense’ and ‘Club de Nuit Intense’. It often reminds me of the Aventus DNA, but be careful, it’s Absolu. Creed Absolu, however beautiful, is in my opinion pineapple in syrup with shame. Here, the fruit lives, sparkles, and transforms with nobility. I won’t talk about Hacivat because I haven’t tried it; I suspect it will be another marvel. For now, SNOI already has a spot among my favorites. An unexpected find that turns an accessible price into an olfactory treasure.
I love it, but it smells very strongly of pineapple at first, then quickly turns smoky, dominating until the end. The girls at work generally don’t like it much. As for me, the longevity and sillage aren’t spectacular like most people say, even though I spray it on my clothes.
I wish it weren’t so aggressive with that predominant synthetic smell. It floods rooms with just two sprays. True that it improves a bit as it dries and lasts a long time, unlike designer fragrance reformulations that turn great perfumes into watery nothingness. I didn’t know what to do with it, but my brother-in-law loved it and I gifted it to him.
November 2024 batch: after reading so much, I expected more. It smells like Club de Nuit Urban but less potent. I’ve only worn it for 3 days and it’s not the miracle everyone claimed. I’ll let it macerate for a few months to see, though it lasts over 6 hours and my mom can smell it from two meters away with the wind. If you don’t have this type of chemistry, buy it and wait; if I were to recommend it again, I’d buy it because I like it, but I wouldn’t say it’s anyone’s perfume of the year. Like all Arabic scents, you have to let it settle, then I’ll comment again.
I think this fragrance is very good; I was hesitant to buy it since the recent batches weren’t lasting, but wow, I sprayed it 6 times and it’s MORE than enough for indoor spaces, though it can get a bit overwhelming. What I notice a lot is that when I step out and come back to the car within 10 minutes, the fragrance is strong; in my opinion, it causes a bit of olfactory fatigue. In summary, after using it for over a month, it lasts about 6 to 7 hours; the scent lingers on clothes and sheets and doesn’t go away until the second wash. Regarding projection and trail, I consider them very good, but you have to be careful with the sprays because if you overdo it, it can attract too much attention and bother people around you. In short, an excellent perfume, very masculine; I’d say it leans citrusy but doesn’t fully develop that side due to the mossy notes it has. 9/10
Buy Lattafa’s Qaed al Fursan and save 30 euros. It smells exactly the same.
Excellent perfume. For me, it’s much better in every way than the Collector’s Edition (if you’re looking for something more masculine). No offense to the previous review, but this has nothing to do with Qaed al Fursan, which is like a sweetened pineapple syrup (it seems quite feminine). That said, like anything excessively sweet, it projects and lasts well.
For the price you get, it’s an excellent fragrance. Good scent, good longevity, good projection. Lasts 6 to 8 hours without issues.
What can I say? It’s a fragrance I simply love. From the sweet and citrusy opening at the same time, with a delicious pineapple note, to its evolution into something more woody and sophisticated. 100% masculine, though I must say I’ve never received a compliment for this scent. I recommend trying it before buying and deciding if you want compliments or to carry a scent you love for your own taste. It lasts about 7 to 9 hours on skin (depending on skin chemistry), with great sillage close to the skin. And projection is easily 2 hours.
Supremacy Not Only Intense by Afnan stands out as an exceptionally balanced men’s fragrance, capable of combining a fresh, attractive fruity opening, an elegant aromatic heart, and a warm, sensual, persistent base. This well-structured olfactory evolution allows it to offer a complete, dynamic, and sophisticated experience from the first spray to the final dry down. Its performance is one of its major strengths: longevity is notably superior to the average, with a firm but well-controlled trail, making it a reliable fragrance for long days without constant reapplication. This behavior makes it especially valued in both professional and social or evening settings. In terms of versatility, it positions itself as a true ‘all-rounder.’ It works well for daily use, projects confidence and presence in work contexts, and adds a seductive, elegant touch to special events. This adaptability significantly broadens its target audience and reinforces its commercial appeal. Finally, its price-to-quality ratio is one of the factors explaining its popularity: it offers sensations, performance, and olfactory complexity typical of high-end fragrances while maintaining an accessible price. In short, Supremacy Not Only Intense not only meets expectations but exceeds them, consolidating itself as a strategic option for those seeking character, professionalism, and olfactory effectiveness in a single fragrance.
Hello, great perfume, one of the best in longevity and projection. Just apply a little or it will be overwhelming.
It was a blind buy. At first, I thought I’d thrown my money away because upon spraying, it smelled exactly like Dumont’s Nitro Intense, which is good, but I wasn’t looking for something identical. Then suddenly, the moss notes started emerging along with that exquisite masculine charm—greener and less sweet than the Nitro. As for the trail, I feel that every so often the scent comes back intensely; it fades and returns, making it perfect for work and daily wear. Despite being intense, it performs very well in the heat. I highly recommend it as a gift for anyone 27 and up; it’s a quality-price jewel, true all-rounder. I picked up a tester for $30.
Out of all the perfumes I own, this is the one people ask about the most. Beyond the compliments, I’d add that it’s one of my top 5 favorites for the rest of my life.
Clean and mossy; at first, it might not hook you or a younger crowd, but once you get the hang of it, it’s an eternal love. The longevity is extreme—you can tell it’s an extract. In exchange, you sacrifice a bit of projection: about 1-2 hours of projecting kilometers away, then it settles to a bubble and stays close to the skin. Honestly, my favorite perfume. Versatile, elegant, clean. Every man should own this or its younger, more fun counterpart, the Supremacy Collector’s Edition; they are the crown jewels of the line.
