Lattafa's version of Megamare?

....In large parts, yes!

There is no question, at least in my view, that Lattafa is approaching Megamare with the fragrance called Atlas.
Atlas is characterized by a strongly salty, algae-like note, which is most reminiscent of the deep ocean. In this respect, it is undoubtedly a true aquatic.

Compared to the Megamare, however, the Atlas is actually a somewhat more charming version of what is nevertheless undoubtedly a rustic "shark's head".
Silage and persistence can easily keep up with the much more expensive Parisi fragrance. And to emphasize my statement here once again, Megamare is one of the most potent fragrances ever for me and usually serves as my personal benchmark in all my reviews on the subject of stamina and silage.

Just like Megamare, Atlas manages to fog a room within a few minutes, others would say to contaminate it. Usually 2-3 sprays are enough for this.

But what do I mean when I say that Atlas is the slightly more charming variant? Well, it is often the case that Lattafa's largely replicated fragrances are less rounded and less harmonious, sometimes even more synthetic.
This is certainly not the case with Atlas compared to Megamare.
It is much rounder and expresses a certain harmony at the beginning, with a slightly sweet undertone, which is clearly due to Davana.
You can also sense a hint of citrus if you manage to sniff your way through the salty-dominant DNA.
The iris in the heart note and the entire base probably also harmonize a little, although I can't explicitly filter it out.
And so Atlas actually manages to appear much more harmonious without forgetting who its great role model is.

In my personal opinion, statements such as "the fragrance is not wearable" are not acceptable. On the other hand, you should think about when and where I show up with Atlas, because like its big brother, you can quickly become annoying with fragrances like this.
If you want to stand out a little and are not at war with salt per se, I can only recommend a test.
I will be happy to wear it at outdoor events and if I want to really stand out again, I will certainly wear it in a well-dosed manner in a professional environment.

The bottle rounds off the picture perfectly and is the perfect match for what is offered in liquid form.
