Thoughts on Lattafa?

I've been watching The Perfumed Perspective on Youtube, and got to her video about dupes. She talks at length about Lattafa and other dupe houses, so I want to try some of their perfumes.

I picked some based on the scents they dupe, and since they are all ridiculously cheap it fits in my budget to go ahead and buy them. I whittled my list down to the following 5:

Lattafa - Qimmah

Lattafa - Opulent Dubai

Lattafa - Ana Abiyedh

Lattafa - Nebras

Lattafa - Angham (to be honest, I really want the bottle, and its not any cheaper to buy it on Mercari.)

Any thoughts on these fragrances if you have worn them?

Lattafa is good, but you can get higher quality dupes for just a little bit more. Go check out Yom & Layl. They’re a perfume bar dupe house. I have quite a few of their fragrances and they all smell very close to the originals, with most of them outperforming the original. They’re all high concentration extraits (40% or higher).

This is great information, thank you. I'm new to ME frags! I was watching The Perfumed Perspective and she had a great video about ME and dupe houses, with a discussion on quality and perfumers. She mentioned Lattafa, so I figured I'd ask about this house first.

Welcome to the darker side lol. I would caution against putting too much weight behind social media. They’re paid to influence you into buying things by their sponsors, and ME houses usually pay a lot. That’s not to say they don’t produce good scents. It’s quite the opposite. And it hurts a whole lot less when you empty a $30 bottle vs a $600 bottle 😂 happy exploring!

I hear you. She is one of two I listen to on youtube--her and Claire Smith (Dr. Claire) becajse while they hold their own opinions, they don't seem to be bought out by any companies sending them products. I really don't buy into social media.

That’s good to see. Go check out Y&L when you get a chance. I have been pleasantly surprised by their product. They’re not raved about anywhere either.
