Ana Abiyedh Passion

Man I wish this came in a bigger bottle! I found that this is my favorite of the Ana Abiyedh line. Though straight out of the box, the projection and longevity leaves much to be desired. But I’m sure aging this bottle will do the trick, as it did with my Ana Abiyedh Scarlet. This is a simple perfume, but one that is done right. Citrusy opening, melding into sweetness and a bit of green note that is not listed. Musky vanilla presents itself in the dry-down. It feels creamy somehow but still light and airy, picture a lemon meringue cookie. The passionfruit is not screechy and intoxicating, though I wish it could be a tad bit tangy. Nonetheless, this is a fun summer scent! I will surely be using the hell out of this perfume this summer.

I got this fragrance as an introduction to passion fruit as I’ve never tried that note before. I was curious to see if it was for me because I do NOT fancy smelling like BO even if it’s ok to everyone else. I am pleasantly surprised that this is as good as it is. It smells nothing like Yara to me. I’m getting a creamy sweet vanilla with juicy passion fruit and a very gourmand smelling coconut and caramel. Somehow manages to be both milky, creamy and powdery. I do see this as very crowd pleasing and easy to wear. Now I’m off to try other passion fruit scents. I think I want to try power of you as I’ve seen this is not a dupe of that fragrance.

Delicious, juicy, warm, sweet and sensual. Passion is one of those fragrances where you just want to keep sniffing yourself all day. Beware!! Others will want to sniff you too. LoL It opens with a burst of ripe juicy passion fruit, done to perfection. As it dries down the coconut and vanilla mingle with the passion fruit giving it a delightful, smooth, creamy goodness that creates a heavenly scent bubble around you for hours. I get absolutely none of the Lily. It's sweet, edible, tropical goodness. Lattafa knocked it outta the park with this one.

I would like to start by saying this is not a Yara in disguise! Instead it's a long distant cousin of POY but not the dupe. If you like the POY DNA you will also enjoy this. Sadly, I adore the scent, but its very weak and longevity awful compared to my other Ana's. And please don't start telling me it's my PH, its not! Even Lidl perfumes have better longevity on me than this one. Lattafa did a great job with the scent but they need to work on longevity and projection.

I wanted all the Tiktokers to be wrong on this one, so I grabbed a sample and as soon as I got my nose on it I ordered a full bottle. This is great on my skin, it is sweet and punchy and makes my mouth water, it is a beautiful juicy passionfruit but doesn't make you feel like you spilled passionfruit on your clothes, it is a passionfruit perfume and it is an excellent one. It is Winter where I am, but I am wearing this, on a sunny winter day this is heaven.
