Peace & Love Lattafa Pride

You hear so many good things and see them everywhere - the price-performance kings from Lattafa. They have great durability, often resemble bestsellers or are a phenomenon in their own right. And I try them again and again. Again and again I want to like them. I want to, but I just can't.

I always study reviews on Parfumo beforehand or look at reviews on the Internet. Everyone raves about it, the descriptions convince me. But in the end, the same disappointment follows every time - even with this fragrance.

The fragrance notes sound promising, but what I get is a blast of synthetics and a colorful mixture of different components. I can hardly classify the fragrance, let alone recognize the individual notes. And I notice the same thing every time: they are incredibly unbalanced. The notes stand out and barely calm down in the drydown.

I'm now wondering whether the problem lies with me. Am I simply too spoiled by the expensive niche fragrances? Of their harmony, their sophistication?

For me, the Lattafa journey ends here. I have given everything, tried everything. What doesn't fit, doesn't fit. But I'm pleased that so many others enjoy this brand. Maybe it really is down to me..
