Mayar Cherry Intense opens with strawberry and bergamot, moves into a warm cherry-jam-and-cacao heart, then settles into vanilla, amber and patchouli for a sweet, warm oriental finish. Fragrantica's community voting (540 votes) rates its longevity mostly moderate, with sillage described as moderate to strong by most voters.
Mayar Cherry Intense is a 2024 Oriental Vanilla release from Lattafa. It opens on strawberry and bergamot, moves into a heart of cherry jam and cacao — Fragrantica's accord breakdown puts cacao at 100% strength, the dominant note in the composition, with sweet (80%) and warm spicy (75%) close behind. Fruity registers at 69%, echoing the cherry and strawberry running through the top and heart. The base settles into vanilla (60%), amber (44%) and patchouli (30%), with a soft powdery finish (26%) rounding things out.
The opening is bright and fruity — strawberry alongside bergamot's citrus lift — before the heart deepens into a thick, cooked cherry-jam sweetness threaded with cacao, giving it a dark-chocolate-and-cherry character. As it dries down, the cacao and fruit fade and vanilla, amber and patchouli take over, leaving a warm, slightly powdery sweetness that sits close to the skin. Fragrantica voters lean toward wearing it at night — 58% log it as an evening scent against 42% for daytime.
Of 540 Fragrantica longevity votes, the largest group (56%) rate Mayar Cherry Intense's staying power as moderate, with a further 24% calling it long-lasting and 11% finding it weak. Sillage tracks similarly: of 528 votes, 61% describe its projection as moderate, 19% as strong, and 16% as more intimate and skin-close.
Fragrantica community voting, 971 ratings overall. See the full breakdown.Season votes favour the cooler months — winter (35%) and autumn (35%) lead, with spring some way behind (19%) and summer trailing at 11%. It reads as a scent built for cold-weather wear rather than peak heat.
Lattafa markets Mayar Cherry Intense as a fragrance for both women and men, and FG Perfumes lists it as unisex. Fragrantica's own gender voting skews strongly female — 54% female and a further 26% female-leaning of 569 votes — but the brand's own framing keeps it open to any wearer.
Fragrantica's community voting links Mayar Cherry Intense most closely to Sweet by Lolita Lempicka, suggesting the two share a similar cherry-cacao-vanilla accord profile. For a gourmand from the same brand, Nebras is a Lattafa alternative FG carries, built on a similar vanilla-cacao base.

Wide range of budget friendly to relatively high end priced perfume brands. Rayhan, Armaf, French Avenue, Brandy, Lattafa just to mention a few. They also sell a 10ml of any brand you like, good for testing before you commit to the whole bottle.
This store reminds me of my days in Dubai. Prices are competitive and most probably the best I have found on the market. Amazing perfumes!
Shahed was very welcoming and friendly… He was knowledgeable about the perfumes and took the time to understand what I was looking for before recommending a fragrance that suited my preferences perfectly.
What a good find! A place where you can smell all the Dubai perfumes. Monique assisted us and she was very helpful. Will see you soon!
Customer service 10/10. Tamzyn helped me she was very nice energetic and helpful… when I heard the price I had to take it. So very affordable in my opinion.
The quality of the fragrances is outstanding. The oils and perfumes are impressive and has longevity… I will definitely be returning and recommending this shop to others.
He was very helpful and friendly as I did not have a clue of what I wanted to get for my mom… It smells very nice. I got compliments at work… I would recommend people to go here.
Lattafa Perfumes started in Dubai in 1980, and the family who founded it still runs the company. Its name comes from the Arabic words for kindness and pleasantness. Lattafa perfumes range from sweet gourmands to bold ouds, at prices well below designer brands.
