Hi Ash! I have this one and it s stellar! Whenever I wear it, I get compliments! There are 2 sites in the UK that sell Lattafa stuff and they are really economical! I have a penchant for the Middle Eastern frags....they are such great value! I had been wearing it all day at work and the compliment came...totally unsolicited....when I was walking back to my car as I was giving a young lady a lift after work! So, as far as longevity is concerned, I cannot fault it! I bought it during the Autumn on 1019, so it is not an older version, I am sure

Ordered from Amazon a few weeks ago. I wouldn't say it's a safe introduction to M.E. fragrances nor is it a safe blind buy. I didn't know what to think of it at first but it's starting to grow on me. I find that the spray lasts longer than the bottle on paper but on skin it doesn't smell that great. Can't wait to try it in winter so we'll see how it performs then. For a sweeter less smokey blend I layer it with Shams Al Emarat Khususi = 🤯🙌

Actually I think reformulations should be a topic addressed more strongly, precisely because it almost always means some deterioration of the performance or of the fragrance itself. Right now going through the process of returning a Mugler Cologne "Come Together" because I had ordered the original Mugler Cologne from Amazon (Germany), not the Come Together one. The vendor will accept the return but they insist it's the same fragrance as the original, just different bottle. I wish some of you reviewers, likely exposed to the originals, or still with them in your collections, or in any case likely with finely trained noses, would let us know your thoughts about any of these new releases which might likely be reformulations, possibly similar enough and of no concern, or probably dissapointing, less performing etc.
@morgannicholestansellАй бұрын
Just now watching this. I have had my bottle for about six months. Was lighter in color and projection/longevity at first. Now, color is darker and it lasts way longer. I sprayed this 12 hours ago and I can still smell it. I wonder if they started mass producing it when it became popular rather than letting them sit on the shelf and macerate, and that’s why it is a different experience now.

In the UK, I have been able to get a (surprisingly-generous) 20ml 'wallet card' spray which was literally a few quid. Still comes in a lovely box, just like the one you showed for the full size, but the atomiser would slip in even a slim suit jacket pocket. Very woody, with a sugary vanilla and a twist of incense smoke. It does seem a little weak on me but I have so far only used it once as a couple of sprays on my wrist.
