What people who wear Lattafa Bade'e Al Oud Amethyst Fusion report, based on votes and reviews from a large fragrance community.
“Smelt it at a store and it smelled nice but didn’t last long. Might be because it just got stocked and needs time to mature or it could’ve been a bad batch so I’ll have to revisit it but it turned into a skin scent on me after about 20 minutes from first impression.”
“Amber and Amaretto bomb for sure...but its nice and soft around the edges and blended actually fairly well. Wont really be able to test this for another few months, but for the price and first impressions, its nice.”
“I have mixed feelings about this fragrance. It is not that I hate it, but when I spray it and I get it close to me, I hate it. To me, it is a strange mix of citrus, vanilla, and some weird notes I can't point out what they are. Close to my skin, I don't like it. However, this is when things get complicated, because the other day I sprayed it on the air, and this was amazing. In the air, it smells like almost burned caramel with a touch of sweetness, so good. I really need someone from outside to tell me their opinion on it because to me, it is weird.”
