Qissa Delicious is the house's chocolate-orange, and it is the most immediately recognisable accord in the catalogue.
— The opening is frank: dark chocolate and orange, with whipped cream. It is the pairing of candied orange and bitter chocolate — a pastry everybody knows, and it works straight away.
— The heart brings the tropical softness: coconut, marshmallow and jasmine. The coconut softens the bitterness of the chocolate and the marshmallow sets in the cottony side.
— The base is oriental and clean: vanilla, warm woods and white musk. The white musk is what keeps the whole thing from being stifling and gives it a crisp ending.
An autumn and winter fragrance, for day as well as evening, genuinely unisex. Two to three sprays.
The notes

Khair Peach Delulu is the most summery of the Khair line, and the only one to play the fresh-spice card.
— The opening is generous and juicy: peach, nectarine and guava. Guava is rare in perfumery — tropical, lightly tart, a little green — and it is what keeps the peach from being ordinary.
— The heart warms things up without weighing them down: cardamom, ginger and rose. The ginger carries the freshness of the fruit on by giving it bite, and it is a clever choice: most peaches in perfumery turn to sugar, this one turns to spice.
— The base is short and crisp: caramel, musk and dry woods. Just enough to round things off and make them last, without turning the fragrance into a dessert.
A spring and summer fragrance, for daytime, bright and easy to wear. Unisex. Two to three sprays.

Taskeen — “the soothing” — is a warm fruity that ends in resinous amber.
— The opening is sunlit: blood orange, peach and cardamom. Blood orange is deeper and sweeter than a classic orange, and the cardamom gives it an oriental turn immediately.
— The heart is the most interesting part: cognac, davana, heliotrope and jasmine. Cognac in perfumery is a boozy, woody note that warms without sweetening. Davana is an Indian plant with a fruity, lightly candied scent that changes with the skin — a material perfumers love for exactly that. Together they give that warm, caramelised side.
— The base is dense and resinous: tonka bean, benzoin, labdanum, cashmeran, patchouli, sandalwood and vanilla. Benzoin and labdanum are two balsamic resins that ensure very long wear.
An autumn and winter fragrance, for late day and evening. Unisex. The davana gives it a rare particularity: it does not smell quite the same on two different people. Two sprays.
