Ultimately, this is an amazing rose oud scent (on the jammy, woody side) for the money, and I highly recommend it for lovers of niche scents. This to me is the absolute best oud-centric fragrance you can buy, and it's astounding how cheap it is. I honestly think this smells nicer and more expensive than Ombre Nomade. Not that this is a clone of it or anything, but that is often seen as the king of oud-forward scents so I usually compare them to that.

Parfumurile arabesti, cum este si Opulent Oud Lataffa, se potrivesc perfect persoanelor senzuale. Completeaza intr-un mod armonios fie o tinuta eleganta, fie o tinuta casual. Aromele intense “vorbesc” despre atitudine si personalitate de neegalat inainte de orice stil vestimentar.Opulent Oud Lattafa este parfumul care odata ce ii descoperi aromele vei vrea mereu pielea ta sa aiba mirosul bogat de citrice, sofran, mosc si vanilie.Notele de varf au o aroma fresh placuta de citrice, cu note florale si de sofran. Iar baza este formata din arome precum rasina, mosc, note lemnoase, paciuli si vanilie. After like 3 hours it's more quite/calm, not so heavy, oudy with less smoke on a vanilla base with musky hints. Sweet OUD & (SANDAL)WOOD-PATCHOULI with amazing drydown. Opens with a floral-citrus burst with patchouli, saffron & oud touches, that deepens into a caramel & amber-oud heart, all resting on a musky amber-wood base with vanilla & patchouli touches. Overall, I get a sweet oud with faint patchouli touches in the opening with a creamy sweet oud heart on a spicy-sweet & creamy (sandal)wood-patchouli base that's to die for. The drydown reminds me of other sandalwood-patchouli drydowns, although sandalwood isn't specifically listed in the notes. Fantastic performance, that might be difficult to wear in the summer heat.

As this perfume was meant for my husband, we tried on his skin as well. I think it's not a man's scent. Inspired by the Arabic words, ‘Latif’ for kindness and ‘Lateefa’ for pleasant, Lattafa resonates with the luxury and elegance of the Arabian culture and it vividly captures the essence of its glorious heritage in its captivating fragrance.

Like all my Lattafas, I'll let this one rest as well for a few weeks and then will test it again in the fall on both of our skins. I'm hoping it will be less sweet and suffocating in cooler weather and the cinnamon will be less dominant. This to me is a patchouli, saffron, rose, oud and SANDALwood fragrance. I'm thinking the intersection of this supposed saffron-patchouli-sandalwood is giving the illusion of some cinnamon as well. Compliments: 8.0 (This fragrance it's not a compliment magnet, but it is alluring and an above-average pleaser, especially because it contains an oud note that has not been disguised by citrus, flowers, fruits and spices) As far as presentation its awesome, the type of blue coloring of the bottle is a standout and not the run of the mill blue color you find on so many perfume bottles and goes well with the dark grey emblem and cap. The cap isn't metal but its a really sturdy plastic, you won't break this one easily trust me. Longevity: On skin 10 (16+ hours), 9 (12-16 hours), 8 (10-12 hours), 7 (8-10 hours), 6 (6-8 hours), 5 (3-6 hours)

The reason I'm giving it a love is that although it's not groundbreaking, it has an extremely attractive price point for a larger audience - especially those that don't like more traditional our fragrances. Extreme versatility with a brilliant sillage.

Over time, similar to Oud Royal the smokiness dial turns up as the jamminess recedes. Sweet synthetic sandalwood may occasionally be seen in the murky smoke, and the rose remains as a transparent vapour, following the woods to the finish. Despite there being some differences in the notes, Swiss Arabian's Shaghaf Oud smells really similar to me.As of now, I have the entire opulent line,and here's what I will say. Out of ALL of them, I feel like this will be the most mass appealing to men. This definitely leans more masculine. This feels very fresh, clean, aquatic and almost a shaving cream/after shave type of smell. Projection Power: 10 (Fills a street), 9 (fills a room), 8 (can smell from 5 meters), 7 (3 meters), 6 (within arms reach bubble), 5 (20cm from skin)

Opulent Oud is a resinous rose-oud pair in the Middle East style fragrance, with hints of saffron, amber, and musk. It is good for the colder months and more appropriate for evening and night events. For €26, this is another beast performer with a unique scent and great projection, which can be exchanged for a more expensive niche scent. It projects gracefully for the first couple of hours, then sits close to the skin, and I keep a small bubble around me for a while, but it lasts forever. All the people that hugged me asked about what perfume I was wearing. And you, how did you spend Christmas Eve? Usually, I tend to appreciate fragrances containing oud less on the opening stage and more on the base and dry-down time frame. This woody fresh scent from Lattafa contains oud and pleases me as much on the opening as on the dry down. Blue Oud is also far from being a linear fragrance; that's a plus for this unusual woody and semi-fresh perfume.LATTAFA, lifestyle and offer unforgettable creations through elegant Arabian Oud perfumes for all…Made in U.A.E. Then you spray it on. This was my first middle-eastern fragrance, and my first smell of anything with the word "oud" in its name. For days I wondered what perfume it smelled like... It's so familiar I was sure I wore it before, loooong time ago...
