Al Noble Ameer Lattafa 2022

It starts off strongly smoky and masculine. It reminds me of something burnt, in the direction of incense mixed with rum and a subtle spicy sweetness. That’s why I love testing it, the stag jumps out of the bushes and surprises me, I didn’t expect that. Then it also becomes slightly leathery, with a hint of vanilla. It remains sweet, but an indefinably enticing sweetness. The strong incense feeling has settled down and it becomes somewhat woody, spicy with a delicate fruitiness reminiscent of mandarin. Now we are facing each other for 30 minutes and it is fascinating. What a great sight. It radiates strength, yet at the same time feels familiar and elegant. Meanwhile, half the bus is wondering why I keep smelling my hand every few seconds and daydreaming. Yes, the stag is being tested on the bus and I don’t care. Damn, I didn’t know it, but I love stags.
The progression is pleasantly rounded, perfectly balanced. A hint of oriental, a touch of elegance, and a hint of luxury, yet still an all-rounder. You don’t need to go into too much detail here. I simply feel comfortable and happy. Incredible that a fragrance can do that. It gives me a sense of calm. Yesterday I already tested a few Lattafas. They were good, but this one plays in a different league for me. The only negative thing that can be said about it is that after about 90 minutes it becomes somewhat more generic. But that’s the case with about 90% of fragrances anyway. On clothing, it lasts a bit longer. Aside from that, the longevity is great, the DNA is great. The price is great. The bottle is a bit kitschy, but when you have it in your hand, it’s somehow cool. And it has fur. I mean, who has a bottle with stag antlers and fur? Don’t be put off in the first 5 minutes and don’t run away, the stag is your friend and it will be a lovely experience with him. One of my new favorites and a clear recommendation.
