Lattafa Perfumes Bade'e Al Oud, Oud for Glory for Unisex Eau de Parfum Spray, 3.4 Ounce

I live nowhere near any malls or department stores so buying fragrances off Amazon is my go to. I just received this fragrance and it took forever to get here but I instantly opened it up and sprayed some on skin to do my first sniff test and wow! This smells absolutely phenomenal! Lattafa definitely has another hitter here. It's a beautiful oud scent that's warm-ish and very inviting but also professional if that makes sense. Definitely smells like Initio Oud for Greatness. I wouldn't say it's a 1 to 1 but it's definitely very close! As far as projection, it seems to be projecting beautifully but as far as longevity goes, I will have to wear this at some time this week or next week and see how long it projects for and how long it stays as a skin scent for. Overall, if you want to smell like Initio Oud for Glory but don't want to spend that triple digit price tag, this is an amazing choice. I highly recommend this dupe.PRO TIP - For anyone just getting into fragrances or having issues with fragrances not lasting more than an hour on skin, the issue might not be the fragrance but your skin instead. Your skin may be dry and in need of proper moisturization. Before applying your fragrance of choice, use a non-scented lotion or moisturizer. This helps moisturize your skin but also gives your fragrance a good surface to really stick to and last longer on. It's even better if the fragrance you want to use comes with a shampoo, deodorant, and lotion that match. Use the shampoo during your shower, then use the deodorant and lotion when you get dressed and finally follow it up with the fragrance. The best fragrances to use during the spring, summer, work, and the gym are fresh, clean, soapy, citrusy fragrances. For fall, winter, date nights, and nights out, you would want to use warm, spicy, boozy fragrances.

The initial spray is strong but after 20 minutes start to get smooth and more like talcum. The smell is really good after 20 minutes and penetrated to your bones because you can wash and scrub and the smell is still there. I tough that was too strong initially but after a while it starts grow on you. Smells fantastic but definitely not a perfume for day time. I think is for nights and more winter type. It’s comes is a beautiful box and bottle. Don’t spray too much because you will feel overwhelmed. I really like it.

This purchase was one of my first purchases from Lataffa, it’s actually one of my most favorite parfums. This is supposed to be unisex, but I think this one needs a little bit more masculine due to the some of the main notes. There’s a little bit of sweetness in the scent, but it’s a healthy balance and it blends well and it sits on the skin nicely. After a while the sweetness will become more prominent, but you also have a certain woody smell, and a little bit of spice that was support so it doesn’t smell too sweet.The quality of it is immaculate especially for the affordability of the product. The scent will last for hours I’d say for me with an active life. It would be about 6 to 8, maybe less if I would sweat less. The value for the money is a steal. The way that it works very well. This is a fragrance that doesn’t need a lot of sprays really I’d say 2 to 3 sprays is enough and four should be the max. I like the design of the bottle it has a artistic and elegant visage. I was told that this was supposed to be a dupe for initioOud for greatness but I’d like to confirm this one day because I would love to see the source of the inspiration behind this scent. I believe that this scent would fit people who have an appreciation for layers and intrigue.

This is great, deep, rich, luxurious probably best as a winter fragrance but anytime is great for this.

This fragrance is incredible for the price! Rich oud notes that last all day without being overpowering. Gets compliments every time I wear it — smells way more expensive than it is.

This fragrance is honestly a steal. It smells like a niche scent that could easily cost $300+, but for a fraction of that price. The scent profile is rich, warm, and “expensive” smelling from the first spray.Scent + vibeTo my nose it’s a smooth amber/woody oud with a spicy kick. You get that opening of saffron + lavender + nutmeg, then it settles into oud and patchouli, and dries down with a musky, woody finish. It’s definitely best for winter, nighttime, and events, but I’ve also worn it as an everyday scent when I want something that stands out.Performance is the highlightLasts all day on me easily.Projection is strong for the first ~5 hours, then it shifts into a more intimate skin scent—people can still smell it, but mainly when they’re close (talking distance).Compliments / signature scent potentialI used this as a signature scent for a couple months, and I never got anything but compliments. It’s one of those fragrances that smells bold but still pleasant and wearable.PackagingBottle arrived in great shape and the design looks clean and premium. The box/packaging also makes it feel more expensive than it is.Bottom line: If you want an “expensive” smelling oud-leaning amber fragrance with strong longevity and great value, this one is an easy recommendation—especially for colder weather and night use.

The packaging is very nice. Smells good but the smell doesn't last long.

I tried it right after receiving today and it’s a spicy, smoky, oriental, musky smelling scent on first application. It starts out strong for a half hour and then settles in nicely smoothing out to a strong but mellow fragrance. The first oud cologne I have and it takes a little getting used to but it’s a pleasant surprise for me. I didn’t detect the Lavender in the top notes, maybe after it matures a bit. My wife noticed it right away and so far the longevity is around eight hours, I’m sure this will improve with age. If you’re looking for a sweet sensation this isn’t it. It’s very Asian oriented to me at least.

Ich habe diesen Duft gekauft und bin wirklich beeindruckt. Bade'e Al Oud ist kein Parfüm für jeden Tag – es ist intensiv, würzig und hinterlässt definitiv Eindruck. Schon beim ersten Sprühen merkt man die Qualität:Die Kopfnote mit Bergamotte und rosa Pfeffer ist frisch und leicht scharf, danach kommt das Herz aus Oud und Karamell, das richtig Tiefe bringt. Die Basis mit Amber und Patchouli sorgt für eine warme, rauchige Ausstrahlung, die lange anhält.Was mir besonders gefällt:- Die Haltbarkeit ist überragend – ich rieche den Duft noch nach Stunden.- Die Sillage ist stark – man wird definitiv wahrgenommen.- Der Flakon sieht edel aus und macht sich gut im Regal.- Preis-Leistung ist top – für den Preis bekommt man ein Parfüm, das locker mit teureren mithalten kann.Was man wissen sollte:- Der Duft ist sehr präsent – wer es lieber dezent mag, sollte vorsichtig dosieren.- Er passt besser zu Abendveranstaltungen oder kühleren Tagen als zum Büroalltag.- Man muss Oud mögen – es ist hier deutlich spürbar und nicht jedermanns Sache.Insgesamt ein starker, charaktervoller Duft, der Selbstbewusstsein ausstrahlt. Wer orientalische Düfte liebt und etwas Besonderes sucht, wird hier fündig.
