"Khara, Max Factor's new mélange of green, floral, and Oriental notes - it goes with the mood of the moment."
1976
"KHARA The deliciously new fragrance by Max Factor. Khara is racy and sensual. Designed for the exuberant woman of today."
1976:
"Khara" from Max Factor, Inc., Hollywood, is a "garden of pure fantasy" that combines floral top note with aromatic accents, harmonies of green tonality and persistent notes of oriental blends."
1976
"VOILA! KHARA! Khara rhymes with hurrah and that's what one might say about ... a fantasy floral design the Max Factor Khara scents range..."
1976
"Exotic Look of Jade Necklace filled with Khara Creme Perfume $3.75 with any Khara purchase. A gift that she’ll adore. Khara the sensuous fragrance from the garden"
1976
"MAX FACTOR INTRODUCES KHARA The essential essence Fresh and flowery and new. Come into this very special garden just this side of innocence very near sensual..."
1976:
"Khara is what the Max Factor people call a "fantasy" fragrance — meaning, we suppose, that it isn't one of your Johnny- one-note naturals (lemon, civet cat, grape — great in their place, but about as suitable as sneakers with flowing caftans ... Khara smells unabashedly like perfume — full of flowers, spices, romance, mystery and allure."
1977
"NATURAL KHARA SPRAY COLOGNE. Sexy, there's nothing to compare. Alluring Khara adds drama to night or day. In spray that releases just enough at just a touch..."
1978:
"Another Oriental-inspired shape: Max Factor's Khara Dynasty Fragrance Candle, modeled after a Chinese Foo dog ($7 50)."
Vogue, 1978:
"Hang pomanders up the closet wall. Caswell- Massey has gold-corded ones. Max Factor's pomander is called Jade Song— it's scented with Khara."
Fate of the Fragrance:
Discontinued around 1983."Someone slipped up in the marketing research division of Max Factor's it seems. The company has just brought out a new perfume - "deliciously sexy" they call it - and their advertising campaign has been utilizing an Arabian theme. Trouble is they have called their product "Khara," a word in Arabic more likely to repel than appeal -unless you happen to be a coprophiliac."
