Brisk and quietly confident, Afnan 9AM Dive wears like a morning plunge into clear water. Lively lemon sparks against cool mint and juicy blackcurrant, lifted by a tingle of pink pepper. A fresh apple–cedar–incense heart keeps things airy yet textured, before a smooth dry down of ginger, sandalwood, patchouli, and a soft jasmine nuance leaves a clean, modern trail. Classified as an aromatic aquatic and designed to be unisex, it’s a versatile daily driver for warm climates and office wear alike.

Story & Positioning
Part of Afnan’s 9 AM/9PM collection, 9AM Dive captures a bright, blue-aromatic style with a minty twist and fruit-woods freshness. compared frequently with YSL Y and Bleu de Chanel, making it a value-rich choice for fans of clean, modern masculines. Not a one-to-one clone, it reads as a hybrid of popular “blue” codes tailored for daytime versatility. The name and fragrance composition evoke the thrill of a new day and a refreshing, aquatic experience, blending citrusy top notes with aquatic, woody, and spicy heart and base notes to create a lively and sophisticated scent.
Bottle & Design
A sleek rectangular glass bottle in ocean-blue with a polished metallic cap and the collection’s circular 9AM emblem, echoing the fragrance’s fresh aquatic mood while keeping the line’s minimalist look.
