Underrated Armaf Fragrances You Need to Try in 2025
Everyone talks about Club de Nuit Intense Man, and for good reason. It is a modern classic in the UK, the default pick when someone wants a safe win. The thing is, Armaf hides a few treasures in plain sight. In this guide I highlight five underrated Armaf fragrances that punched above their price in my testing, the ones that made me say, why is no one talking about this.
1. Armaf Infinity Silver 105ml Eau de Parfum
Key Fragrance Notes: Bergamot, Ginger, Cardamom, Pink Rose, Cedarwood, Vetiver
I have tried a lot of Armaf releases, but Armaf Infinity Silver honestly caught me off guard. It feels effortlessly refined, the kind of scent that could easily sit beside designer names without shouting for attention.
Price: £44.99

How It Smells
From the very first spray, the burst of bergamot, grapefruit, and ginger feels crisp and modern, opening with a smooth brightness that immediately draws you in. As it settles, that peppery warmth of cardamom and the soft floral touch of pink rose and geranium begin to appear, giving it a sophisticated balance. The base of cedarwood, vetiver, and cashmeran grounds everything with a polished woody depth that reminds me of YSL L’Homme Ultime, only slightly fresher and more contemporary.

2. Armaf Beach Party 100ml Eau de Parfum
Key Fragrance Notes: Passionfruit, Grapefruit, Peach, Guava, Marine Notes, Musk
Most tropical scents these days all seem to blend into one another, but Armaf Beach Party feels different. This isn’t another fragrance trying to chase the tropical trend. It is a well-balanced tropical marine scent that actually captures the feeling of being on a sunlit beach. The name fits it perfectly. Many people compare it to Summer Hammer, but I personally think Beach Party is its own creation, standing confidently apart from the rest of the crowd. It has that effortless, vacation-ready energy without ever smelling synthetic or overdone.
Price: £32.99
How It Smells
From the very first spray, the tropical opening bursts with passionfruit, grapefruit, peach, and guava, creating a juicy brightness that feels alive. What makes it impressive is how the marine note slides in to balance that sweetness, keeping it refreshing instead of sugary. The base of subtle woods and musk adds a smooth finish, grounding the scent while still keeping that breezy, coastal vibe. It’s tropical done right, playful yet polished, and easily one of the most underrated warm-weather fragrances from Armaf.

3. Armaf Club de Nuit Lionheart Woman 100ml Eau de Parfum
Key Fragrance Notes: Lavender, Vanilla, Cacao, Ginger, Vanilla Absolute, Amber
When a fragrance performs this well, it is surprising how little attention it gets. Armaf Club de Nuit Lionheart Woman often sits quietly in the background while the men’s version steals the spotlight, but this one deserves its own moment. It is one of those rare releases where the resemblance to its inspiration, Burberry Goddess, is almost uncanny. The difference is in the texture Lionheart Woman feels smoother, more comforting, and just that little bit more wearable for every day. It delivers designer-level quality at a fraction of the price, which is why it genuinely surprises me that more people are not talking about it.
Price: £39.99
How it smells
From the very first spray, you get that creamy, slightly sweet vanilla that instantly feels luxurious. The lavender adds a soft floral lift that keeps the scent balanced, while the cacao and ginger bring a touch of warmth that melts beautifully into the base. As it dries down, the vanilla absolute becomes even richer, giving a silky finish that clings to the skin in the best way. It is elegant, addictive, and feminine without being loud. Lionheart Woman is proof that Armaf can mirror high-end creations with remarkable precision while still giving them its own warmth and depth.

4. Armaf Uniq Oud Forever 100ml Eau de Parfum
Key Fragrance Notes: Saffron, Cardamom, Pink Pepper, Jasmine, Osmanthus, Patchouli
For some reason, Armaf Uniq Oud Forever never seems to get the attention it deserves. Oud fragrances can often be intimidating or too intense, which might be why this one slips under the radar. But the truth is, Uniq Oud Forever feels like the perfect entry point into the world of oud. It takes that deep, woody richness people expect and pairs it with just the right amount of warmth and sophistication. It reminds me of Tom Ford Oud Wood, yet it feels smoother and more approachable, which makes it an incredible value for anyone who wants something that smells effortlessly expensive.
Price: £35.00
How it smells
From the first spray, it gives off that confident “I have my life together” kind of energy. The saffron, cardamom, and pink pepper bring a gentle spice that feels instantly classy, followed by soft florals of jasmine and osmanthus that make it feel balanced and polished. As it settles, the patchouli and amber woods take over, leaving a smooth, creamy finish that lingers beautifully. It is unisex, modern, and wearable for any occasion. Uniq Oud Forever is that quiet kind of luxury that doesn’t need to shout to be noticed, it simply speaks for itself.

5. Armaf Éter Arabian Sky 100ml Eau de Parfum
Key Fragrance Notes: Lemon, Grapefruit, Pineapple, Pepper, Caramel, Amber
Armaf Éter Arabian Sky is one of those fragrances that deserves far more recognition than it gets. Most people overlook it because they think it is just another blue-style scent, but it is so much more than that. It takes inspiration from Bleu de Chanel and Invictus, two of the most crowd-pleasing designer releases, and brings them together in a way that feels bold, smooth, and refreshingly balanced. The result is a scent that feels premium but remains affordable, which makes it one of Armaf’s smartest hidden gems.
Price: £39.99
How it smells
The fragrance opens with a bright burst of citrus and pepper that instantly feels clean and confident. Then the sweetness from pineapple and a touch of caramel start to come through, giving it warmth and depth without overpowering the freshness. The leather and amber in the base finish everything off with a masculine sophistication that lasts all day. It is fresh, energetic, and modern, yet has enough complexity to work from day to night. Éter Arabian Sky is that rare fragrance that can rival designer icons while still having its own unique personality.
