Best Sweet & Gourmand Lattafa Perfumes
1. Lattafa Khamrah
Notes: cinnamon, nutmeg, bergamot, dates, praline, tuberose, vanilla, tonka bean, myrrh, amberwood
Khamrah is the fragrance that put Lattafa on the map for many people. It is warm, spicy, and boozy-sweet, like dates and praline dusted with cinnamon. It lasts for hours and gets compliments constantly. Unisex, and best in fall and winter.

2. Lattafa Khamrah Qahwa
Notes: cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, praline, candied fruits, coffee, vanilla, tonka bean
Qahwa means coffee in Arabic, and that is the big difference from the original. Khamrah Qahwa adds a roasted coffee note and cardamom, making it slightly less sweet and a little more grown-up. If you love coffee scents, this may be your favorite of the two.
3. Lattafa Eclaire
Notes: caramel, milk, sugar, white flowers, honey, vanilla, praline, musk
Eclaire smells like a caramel dessert, creamy, milky, and very cozy. It is one of the sweetest Lattafa releases and a favorite with women who love gourmand scents.
4. Lattafa Teriaq
Notes: caramel, apricot, pink pepper, bitter almond, rose, honey, leather
Created by perfumer Quentin Bisch, Teriaq is a more sophisticated gourmand. The honey and caramel are balanced by bitter almond and a soft leather note, so it feels rich rather than sugary.
Best Lattafa Perfumes for Men
5. Lattafa Asad
Notes: black pepper, pineapple, coffee, iris, patchouli, vanilla, amber, dry woods
Asad is one of the most popular Arabian perfumes for men. It is spicy, sweet, and slightly smoky, with a pineapple and black pepper opening that settles into warm vanilla and amber. A great evening and date-night scent.
6. Lattafa Asad Bourbon
Notes: pink pepper, lavender, mirabelle plum, cacao, davana, nutmeg, bourbon vanilla, amber, vetiver
A richer, boozier take on Asad with cacao and bourbon vanilla. If you like Asad but want something smoother and more luxurious, try this next.
7. Lattafa His Confession
Notes: cinnamon, lavender, mandarin, iris, benzoin, cypress
His Confession is spicy and powdery, with cinnamon and iris giving it an elegant, slightly vintage feel. It works well for the office as well as evenings.
8. Lattafa The Kingdom
Notes: lavender, mint, sage, vanilla, tobacco, orange blossom, tonka bean, benzoin
The Kingdom opens fresh with lavender and mint, then turns warm and slightly sweet with tobacco and vanilla. It is one of the most versatile Lattafa scents for men and easy to wear year-round.

9. Lattafa Yara
Notes: orchid, heliotrope, tangerine, tropical fruits, gourmand notes, vanilla, musk, sandalwood
Yara went viral for good reason. It is soft, powdery, creamy, and sweet without being heavy. A perfect everyday scent that feels feminine and comforting.
10. Lattafa Yara Tous
Notes: mango, coconut, passionfruit, jasmine, heliotrope, orange blossom, vanilla, musk, cashmeran
Yara Tous is the tropical sister of Yara. Juicy mango and coconut make it perfect for summer and vacations.
11. Lattafa Her Confession
Notes: cinnamon, jasmine, tuberose, incense, tonka bean, musk, vanilla
Her Confession is warm, spicy, and mysterious. The cinnamon and incense give it depth, making it a great choice for evenings and special occasions.
Best Lattafa Oud
12. Lattafa Bade'e Al Oud Oud for Glory
Notes: saffron, nutmeg, lavender, agarwood (oud), patchouli, musk
If you want a true Middle Eastern oud experience, start here. Oud for Glory is smoky, rich, and powerful, with saffron and lavender balancing the oud. A little goes a long way.

Why Try Lattafa in a Decant First?
Arabian perfumes are powerful, and they can smell very different on skin than they do on paper. A decant lets you wear a fragrance for several days before buying a full bottle, and it makes it easy to compare favorites side by side, like Khamrah and Khamrah Qahwa.
All MiniSprays decants are poured from authentic retail bottles and come in 3ml, 5ml, and 10ml travel sprays. Shop all Lattafa decants or explore our full Dubai perfumes collection.
