The Scoop
Tamima by Lattafa captures the bright citrus opening and floral heart of L'Imperatrice 3 quite competently, delivering a similar fruity-floral profile. However, the base tends to be slightly sweeter and less sophisticated, with the sandalwood and amber less refined than the original's elegant dry-down. Overall, it's a solid budget alternative that satisfies the core scent DNA but lacks the premium smoothness of the Dolce & Gabbana composition.
Key Differences
Tamima is noticeably sweeter in the base with less nuanced sandalwood presence, and typically shows shorter longevity (4-6 hours vs. 6-8 hours for the original). The mid-stage floral development is slightly more generic and less nuanced.

What wearers say
“I love fruity perfumes and this is very much something I like. Very fresh and fruity opening and that is the scent that captures your attention with the pepper making it a bit more interesting. Then the woody note gives it some depth and makes it more long-lasting. I enjoyed it, I think if the notes are something you like, a good blind buy.”
“Light fruity and fresh. Bringing back the 1990's with this one. Do you remember Cucumber Mellon? Tamima smell just like that. It is also pretty spot on the the D&G its inspired by. I wouldn't say its a dated perfume. Its perfect for everyday wear in the spring and summer to run errands. Just an overall fresh out of the shower clean non offensive perfume.”
“I hope this develops more because right now it smells remarkably similar to Bath and Body Works Apple spray. I know it is supposed to be watermelon, but it smells like apple shampoo to me. Hopefully time will develop this more.”
