Ana Abiyedh Leather

So with our amazing classic "Power House" fragrances of yester-year such as Ralph Lauren's Polo, Aramis, Tuscany per Oumo etc. having been reformulated thus having had their performance OBLITERATED supposidly because of the Oak Moss regulations... I just dont see how these houses can use that excuse with fragrances like this lil' ol $16 Lattafa Ana Abiyedh Leather fragrance (which does NOT use Oak Moss to begin with).. So what gives?! I used to used the OG Polo by Ralph Lauren which was an edt and a BEAST! I hadnt had Polo in many years, went and purchased a new bottle a couple of months ago and the performance was ATROCIOUS, and again, we're supposed to believe that its only bc of the Oak Moss regulations?! I also purchased Tuscany per Uomo and the performance was EVEN WORSE! These fragrances are still somewhat expensive too at $60 to $90 each! Anyways, Lattafa's Ana Abiyedh is simply a shining start for us Frag-Heads who still LOVE rhe classics and who are sick and tired of these designer houses destroying our wonderful classics and then blaming it on "Regulations" This fragrance is super animalic, smokey and the performance is reminiscent of the old 80's and 90's masculine powerhouse fragrances. Again, the performance is truly excellent and I honestly believe that this fragrance can rival many "Niche" Leather-Forward fragrances on the market today. This is an excellent buy and after being so very dissapointed in "The Classics" after their current formulations, this fragrance ROCKS! Also, although this is only a 60 ml bottle, 3 to 4 sprays if O-PLENTY for a full work day! 9 OUTTA 10 FRAGRANCE and this price point is just ridiculous for only $16 a pop!. Thank you to whomever took the time to read my review/rant 😜

Ana Abiyedh Leather by Lattafa is a fragrance unlike any other. As soon as you spray it on, you’re immediately hit with the delectable aroma of leather, which brings to mind images of luxury and sophistication. The scent is a heady mixture of leather, oakmoss, cardamom, sandalwood, and patchouli, all of which blend together perfectly to create a truly unique and luxurious scent. The initial hit of leather is sharp yet pleasant, and it quickly gives way to the sweetness of the oakmoss and cardamom. The sandalwood and patchouli provide balance to the scent, making it a little bit spicier, resulting in a truly stunning aroma that’s complex and multi-faceted. Aesthetically, Ana Abiyedh Leather is just as attractive as the aroma. Its elegant glass bottle and stylish design make it a perfect addition to any dressing table or nightstand, and its lid is a timeless black, making it a great gift item for any occasion. In terms of longevity, the scent lasts for a good five hours after application. It’s not overly strong, so it’s perfect for during the day if you want to feel luxurious without overpowering your surroundings. All in all, Ana Abiyedh Leather by Lattafa is a stunning scent that’s sure to make an impression wherever it goes. To sum up, if you’re looking for a fragrance that’s sophisticated, luxurious, and unique, Ana Abiyedh Leather by Lattafa is one of the best options out there. Its combination of leather, sandalwood, and spice creates a beautiful aroma that’s both timeless and modern, so it’s sure to make a lasting impression on all who smell it. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

On my clothes, it dries down to a leather-heavy aroma, while on my skin, it lingers with a sweetness. I both agree and disagree with some comments I've read. Yes, it is leather-forward, but it's not as terrible as some make it seem. Also, who sprays a new (Arabic) fragrance like 'usual' and doesn’t expect an intense burst that overwhelms the senses? Hello? Without checking the notes list, I could smell something sweet and peppery. After checking, I found it to be quite accurate. But leather is the dominant note, very intimate and friendly, and it carries on with everyone. It introduces each note subtly; some shy away and disappear after a few minutes or seconds, but leather, our beloved host, remains and eventually meets its partner, musk. Together, they create a good harmony, which is why they’re reliable to lead through the crowd. That’s how I experience it. For the price, it’s insanely strong. The blend is subtle when you consider how leather-forward it is without being overly bitter. I believe scents like this are meant to be layered with weaker, fresh scents to support each other in harmony. For example, to test this idea, I layered it with Cardamom Mimosa by Jo Malone 1:1, and it intensified the cardamom and sweetness subtly, which is great. I used to complain about the weak performance of Jo Malone scents, so this was a great test. Imagine wanting to go out but still use a fresh scent? Add a spray of this, and it becomes pleasantly stronger. Perfect. In conclusion, worth it!

HOLY. CRAP. my first word when smelling this? "DAMN!!!" this scent is insane!!!! i was born and grew up in las vegas. when i think of old money, i think of THIS. this scent is so much more than just leather. it's red carpet, expensive jewelry, red bottom heels and long gowns. i almost have a distinct memory, being young at a dinner, surrounded by well-off old men who smelled just like this. something about this, is terrifyingly nostalgic. i feel so extremely about this scent. there's a pleasant hint of pepper, while obviously being leather-dominant, it's accompanied by so many different levels of spice. i'm no fragrance connoisseur, so i can't place my finger on every exact distinctive one... but they all come together so nicely. really good performance from this as well. it seems that no matter how long you have it on, it's iconic and noticeable. would probably work best for a late night out.

This is my first LEATHER scented perfume AND it was a blind buy! 😮🚩 I know right? But OMG wow. Zero regrets, none whatsoever. I love this! 🥰👍 Lataffa did gooooooood. Opens with a strong Juniper berry note but without the astringency of the raw berries like in gin. The leather is strongest at this point as is the alcohol scent. After 5 to 10 minutes, the alcohol has evaporated and the Juniper/leather notes are less pronounced, incorporating into an almost sweet, powdery-ish mix. After several hours, I still smell a well balanced blend but softer, more like real leather. Wow. ❤️ I know there's more to it but as you can see with at all the other comments, books have been written about this perfume and how it feels to wear it. 8.5/10 Powerful, Deceptively Simple, Magnificent. 🫡🔥
