The Scent

Dark, smoky, and serious. Saffron and a touch of lavender over deep oud and earthy patchouli, with very strong projection. Many people reach for it as an affordable take on the Initio Oud for Greatness style, and it's built its own following in that oud-lover space. A bold cold-weather scent, and a little goes a long way.

Worth Knowing

It's part of Lattafa's broader Bade'e Al Oud family, which has grown to include several variations, a sign of how well the original oud-forward concept has resonated with wearers who love that style.

Where It Came From

Launched in 2020, making it one of the earlier releases in this part of Lattafa's catalog.

About Lattafa

Lattafa got its start in the 1980s in the UAE, founded by Sheikh Shahid Ahmad and Shoaib Iqbal. The name comes from the Arabic words for gentle and pleasant. What began as a small regional company has grown into something sold in well over 120 countries, still run by the same family three generations in, and it's become one of the biggest names behind the whole affordable dupe movement that's taken over fragrance TikTok.
