In the world of fragrances, where high-end price tags often dominate, Lattafa Perfumes has built a revolutionary name by offering luxury-inspired scents at accessible prices—without ever compromising on quality or artistry.
From TikTok virality to global cult status, Lattafa has taken the world by storm. Whether you’re a seasoned fragrance enthusiast or someone just exploring the world of Arabic perfumery, there’s a good chance Lattafa has caught your nose—or your attention.
Let’s dive into the story, legacy, and iconic creations of the fragrance house that’s changing the game.
The Story Behind Lattafa: Where Tradition Meets Innovation
Founded in Dubai in 2012, Lattafa was born out of a dream to create high-quality Arabian perfumes that cater to both Eastern and Western preferences. The brand name “Lattafa” comes from the Arabic word “لطافة” which means elegance and kindness—and their fragrances stay true to that sentiment.
From the beginning, Lattafa set out to celebrate traditional Arabic scent profiles like oud, musk, and amber while crafting modern, wearable fragrances that can rival even the most prestigious designer brands.
And they’ve done just that—time and again.

Why Lattafa Is a Global Sensation
🔹 Affordable Dupes of Iconic Designer Perfumes
Let’s be honest—who doesn’t want to smell like luxury for a fraction of the price? Lattafa is widely loved for its inspired-by creations, offering fragrance twins to niche and designer perfumes like:
- Oud for Glory (aka Bade’e Al Oud) – A powerful homage to Initio’s Oud for Greatness
- Raghba – A sweet and smoky vanilla-oud bomb that smells like love
- Asad – Often compared to Dior Sauvage Elixir, but with a bold, Arabic twist
- Khamrah – Dubbed as the Middle Eastern cousin of Killian’s Angels’ Share, with its boozy, spicy gourmand magic
These aren’t mere clones—they’re masterfully blended compositions with their own character, and often even better longevity and projection than their high-end counterparts.
🔹 Unisex Appeal and Diversity
Whether you love bold, spicy ouds, delicate florals, or sweet gourmand notes, Lattafa has something for everyone. Many of their perfumes are unisex, and the versatility means they’re perfect for layering or wearing all year round.
