Fouad

From the opening, this smells pretty similar to Eros EDP but without the apple note. The bergamot gives this much of the character in the opening, similar to the lemon in Eros, but the base is what makes this special. That citrus accord is dressed up in a beautiful array of musk, ambroxan, woods, lavender, and powder. As it dries down, the bergamot dies down and some of the other nuances of this start to shine through. I'm not sure what some of the other reviewers smell because to my nose this is super mass appealing and designerish. I don't pick up much, if any, oud. The patchouli and leather are very subtle and keep this scent nice n grounded. Although vanilla isn't listed, I'm very certain its in here. Its not a super heavy vanilla, comes across more like tonka beans to my nose, which adds to the powdery accord. That combined with the saffron honestly makes me smell a bit of Arabian's Tonka here, so I understand the guy who was reminded of Amber Oud Dubai Night. the lavender is lovely here too, it melds into that tonka/vanilla accord to give this a playful sweetness. Pretty great performance for the price as well, long lasting, and very well projecting. For $30ish as a Ross blind buy, this feels pretty high quality, even before masturbation. I lost my bottle of Eros EDP (shame because its an all timer fragrance to me), so this will fill the gap it left in my collection quite well. Like Eros EDP, I think you could wear this in virtually any situation besides scorching heat and be okay. This feels pretty easy to pull off. Blind buy safe and mass appealing. If you have smelled the Eros EDP drydown in the later stages, that's very similar to what this dries down to. Will update review if anything major changes after masturbation.

Asdaaf Fouad is a pretty damn good fragrance. I find it funny because like everyone else so far, I also found this at Ross for $30 lmao. For me, it reminds me of my Nitro Red bottle I own. Idk why, maybe it's the bergamot, lavender, and amber? It also reminds me of the musky, powdery ambroxan of Maahir Legacy.. probably the musk note I'm smelling. But so far, I don't smell much oud and there's no leather present at all. I mostly smell Bergamot, Lavender, Saffron, Amber, Patchouli, and some Musk. This one surprised me, because idk if this is a spring/summer wear or what. But I'm gonna say this is honestly an all year round fragrance. But like always, I'm gonna let my bottle sit and mature, and I'll definitely edit and update my review if anything changes. Edit: After 2 days of being sprayed on a tissue. It has an AMAZING sweet and creamy Vanilla drydown smell and maybe even some creamy Tonka Bean. The Vanilla reminds me of the drydown of my bottle of Asad Zanzibar. And the creamy Tonka Bean reminds me of my bottle of Riiffs Momento!! I'm probably just smelling Resins and Patchouli lol. Scent Profile: 10/10 Longevity: 10/10 Sillage: 10/10 Overall: 10/10

Most underrated Lattafa of all time by far. Blind-bought this at Ross, of all places, and it's amazing. Long lasting and strong sillage. For the actual scent, at first, I was like "this is a pretty good blind buy." The opening is like a better Versace Eros, but the dry down is amazing. After a couple hours, the amber begins to pop, and it's a damn good amber for like 30 bucks. It goes from a summer fragrance all the way to something you'd get away with in the wintertime. The amber, musk, and resins are awesome. Overall, very nice all year round; wish the oud was even vaguely detectable. Highly recommend.

This one honestly surprises me it was a blind buy and not a scent profile I'd go after...this one changed everything its absolutely phenomenal!!!! Smell is amazing and the projection and sillage is great along with longevity...honestly a must have imo

Beautiful fragrance! Strong and long lasting. Mine seemed a little fizzy sweet fruity freshy with beautiful floral and woody undertones. I think this could definitely be worn all year long

It’s got some interesting notes but this is still kind of challenging overall. The dry down is a strange powdery woody smell. Definitely strong performance but not blind buy safe or recommended for someone that wants a mass appealing fragrance.
