Fragrance Notes
The first impression, and usually the lightest part of the fragrance. These notes evaporate first, which is how a fragrance is built to open.

Mango, grapefruit, lemon and ginger open into jasmine, cedarwood and violet, settling on woodsy notes, ambergris, benzoin and oakmoss. Lattafa Opulent Dubai balances citrus-fruity brightness against a warm woody-amber base. Voters split closely between moderate (47%) and long lasting (43%) for longevity, with sillage mostly moderate.
The opening pairs mango with grapefruit, lemon and ginger for a citrus-fruity lift with a spiced edge from the ginger. The ginger is worth noting specifically — it sits low enough in the blend to read as warmth rather than a sharp spice note, which keeps the citrus opening rounder than a straight grapefruit-lemon pairing would be on its own. The heart brings jasmine and violet for a soft floral layer, with cedarwood adding early structure. The base is built from woodsy notes, ambergris, benzoin and oakmoss, giving a warm, resinous-woody finish. The scent shape moves from bright citrus-fruit through a light floral heart into a substantial amber-wood base, with the ginger and cedarwood keeping the composition from reading as purely sweet.
Grapefruit, lemon and mango lead at first spray, with ginger giving a faint warmth underneath the citrus brightness. As the top notes fade, jasmine and violet soften the profile into a light floral stretch, with cedarwood beginning to firm up the structure. The middle stretch is where jasmine and violet do most of the work, giving the fragrance a brief lighter, more floral character before the ambergris and benzoin take hold; wearers who catch it at this stage often describe it differently than they would the opening or the base. In the drydown, ambergris and benzoin bring a warm, slightly sweet amber character, while oakmoss adds a drier, earthy counterpoint that keeps the base from turning cloying.
Longevity votes split closely between moderate (47%) and long lasting (43%), a narrower spread than most fragrances, suggesting performance sits reliably in the mid-to-long range without a strong lean either way. Because the longevity split is close rather than lopsided, actual wear time will vary more from person to person than with a fragrance where voters agree more strongly — reapplication after several hours is a reasonable expectation for some wearers. Sillage is more decisive, with 61% calling it moderate and 29% strong, pointing to a fragrance that reads clearly up close and at conversational distance without filling a large room.
Summer takes 48% of the seasonal vote and spring 37%, well ahead of autumn and winter. The citrus-fruity opening and moderate weight support that reading, and 78% of voters favour it for daytime wear.
Both Fragrantica's own gender read and the community vote agree here: unisex takes 65% of the gender vote, well ahead of any single-gender lean, and Fragrantica's listing also reads unisex. This is one of the more decisively unisex profiles in the range.
The citrus-fruity opening over a warm amber-wood base shares its shape with God of Fire by Stephane Humbert Lucas 777, another composition built around bright top notes settling into a substantial ambery drydown. The comparison sits in general structure rather than an exact note match.
This suits anyone who wants a citrus-fruity opening with enough amber-wood depth to carry through a full day. It performs best in spring and summer, fits daytime wear well, and its moderate-to-strong sillage makes it a versatile pick for both everyday rotation and slightly more occasion-led wear.

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.
