Art Of Nature II

I don't prefer owning multiple bottles of the same scent, but sometimes by blind buying this ME fragrances, that can't be avoided. This is dominant vanilla perfume, little acidic from citruses, little spicy on a good woody smokey base. Everything is so well blended and balanced, performances are admirable, especially for the price. And it is something we are used to from Lattafa. As said, this is very good dupe od Althair, which is younger than Mercedes Benz club nuit, which is younger than Le covent one, which is younger than Spirituse double vanille. Not to mention numerous ME dupes of the sam DNA. I do enjoy it, not as original masterpiece, but as beautiful ambery vanilla, straight unisex. From my collection it reminds me a lot of Mercedes Benz club nuit. Opening is a bit different, this one is more spicy at the beginning and perhaps little less smokey. It's hard for me to tell which one I prefer, all I can say this one outperformed Mercedes one from the first spray.

You're a kid; you have friends over; you're snuggling a bunch of warm, clean, happy guinea pigs. Someone in your house is baking cookies and singing to themselves contentedly. (I never expected any scent to evoke such a crystal-clear olfactory memory, and I kind of wish that this objectively moody-autumn-sexy-man scent didn't evoke this exact one, bc) This smells absolutely delightful, and I've had an actual Althair sample and think it's a very good dupe. I tend to treat mine as a cozy solo bedtime scent, but when I encounter it in public it has different connotations and just smells like Hyper-Sexy Macho Cinnamon-Roll Beast-Man Btw: they say cedar is the base note, but it's the first thing I smell and it mellows and fades in the dry-down. What lingers is cookies, (gentle) spice, and some other kind of wood

Smells like orange blossom bourbon vanilla ice cream. This is delicious, addictive, and one of my favorite Lattafas out of the many that I own. Between this and Maahir Legacy, it seems they are really good at nailing PDM DNA, this is like 90-95% accurate to Althair. Honestly seems to have this lovely airy quality and better performance than the actual Althair I tried, so this may actually be better tbh. Amazing performance, 10-12 hours with amazing projection for 7-8 of them. 10/10, very overlooked bc of how popular Liquid Brun is, but this one of Lattafa's best efforts and one of the best dupes I've ever tried. Dumb reach for any cool weather, also great for date night or even clubbing/bars.

I smelt Althair when it first came out and initially wasn’t impressed, I saw that this was a clone and through my fragrance journey I have fallen out of love with dupes. I just get the real thing because time and time again, I have been proved otherwise that it’s better just to buy the actual product itself. Now, off of my soap box and onto the fragrance. I honestly love it.. its quite beautiful and warm. Like enveloping me in a sweet, spicy and woody blanket. Don’t get much citruses but everything else is there, the longevity is solid and the sillage is a good arms length. Not overly powerful, it’s just right. Another W from lattafa. 🙏🏽

I just got this, and wow it has blown away my expectations. It’s a fragrance you can’t base off of the notes at all, it doesn’t smell like any of the notes separately. It smells like a vanilla ice cream, with hints of orange. It’s not very sweet, not spicy but just perfect. It smells so smooth, and I cannot stop smelling it, also not a forgettable fragrance at all. I smelt it and it instantly became my favorite fragrance. It’s very unisex, anyone can wear it, smells amazing, and also pretty good longevity and protection. 10/10 definitely recommend.

I did a side by side comparison of Altair and art of nature 2. I'm my opinion I like art of nature 2 more because it has more depth and personality and smells slightly better. But overall 6/9 people I asked which was better said Altiar. Altair is probably stronger and lasts a little longer, but for the price art of nature 2 is amazing. Lasts probably 6-7 hours good projection, after that it's a skin scent until like 11 hours. Its my second favorite cologne I've smelt so id definitely recommend it

This is the closest you will get to Altair I recent got a 0.5ml of Altair with a purchase from frag flex and I compared it to my art of nature 2 that I’ve had for the past 8 months and it’s def 99% similar , I’ve tried liquid brun but it’s more sweet and stronger , but this next to the og u can not tell the difference . If u want closest get this if u want strongest get liquid burn , liquid burn last about 2 hours more then the art of nature 2

I already own art of nature 2 by Lattafa. This time I thought of buying from fragrancebuy and I was surprised. The art of nature 2 from fragrancebuy had light colored juice compared to the previous one. Pathetic quality, poor projection garbage sillage, subzero longevity. I think it might be fake one. They even deleted my review from their website. Will never ever buy from fragrancebuy. Bloody scammers. Waste of money.

Just got this. I also have liquid brun. Art of nature 2 really surprised me because I didn't think it'd be better than brun but it is. They are super similar but the openings are a bit different. Nature is brighter in the opening but they drydown very similar. 10/10 on this. This is also as good of a performer as brun too. I'll never understand how brun got hyped more than this.

More airy and less sweet compared to liquid brun, this is althair dupes with a bit twist, a take on the dna and make it more fresh and light, doesn't have the fizzy opening of althair, Sweet and rich drydown has been toned down a bit, making it less cloying to me, prefer this over liquid brun, this does not give headache like althair and liquid brun does, Juice are high quality

Art of Nature II: For when one desires a fragrance that evokes the essence of nature, perhaps even inspiring a certain...equine admiration. I recently acquired Art of Nature II and Liquid Brun, but Liquid Brun is being returned. Art of Nature II has made an immediate and favorable impression. Ranked in order of preference: 1. Art of Nature II 2. Liquid Brun 3. Rae's 786 Gold

I put this on this morning at 3am. At 10am it was still pushing and then I put another fragrance on. Mind you I just got the fragrance yesterday so it isn't even macerated yet. When I say this is better than liquid brun i mean it. If you haven't checked it out I'd also recommend victorioso fearless from alhambra. It's an althair clone with a twist and it's very good also.

A gorgeous fragrance🤗so warm and comforting and perfect for rainy days, fall and winter. Only got it yesterday and performance excellent straight out the box👍🏼no maturation(oxidation) needed. Can’t wait to see how much better it becomes. Very happy with this one and love the horses on the bottle.😊

This one is hands down my favorite Lattafa fragrance! Opens up warm and sweet almost like a vanilla orange cream cake. I reckon it gets called a PDM dupe but I’ve never smelt PDM. This one settles down perfectly and the cedar base notes are very prominent. 10/10 in my book for lattafa

This is absolutely stunning and 1:1 dupe of Liquid Brun...sweet, warm, apple pie, addicting, cozy, fall/winter vibes. Slightly boozy, feels like rum yet not listed. No maturation needed, beast mode right out of the box. And did I mention how gorgeous the horse bottle is? Love.

First wear today, I can confirm no citrus is dominant here. Mild sweetness, some wood and amber. Lasting 6 hours easy Projection good. This is delicious, pleasant All day lasting frag Ideally an evening scent but can be worn indoor in summers. Very well blended. Love it

Simply reading the notes of this fragrance doesn’t do it justice. You need to experience it for yourself! This is a sophisticated fragrance, the dry down gave me goosebumps. It smells terrific! The airy cocoa/praline waft is so damn intoxicating, cookies galore.

Immediate love from the first spray! A perfectly unisex and beautiful fragrance. Gorgeous cardamon and vanilla notes. I own PDM’s Althäir and this is an incredible dupe. Art of Nature 2 has better sillage and longevity on my skin. Very special!

Nose Note #713 Honestly, I don't smell much difference between this Liquid Brun and Al Dirgham Special Edition. This and Liquid Brun may last longer though, but the scent itself - to me they are all identical. 8.5/10, just like the rest

I own Liquid Brun by French Avenue and Island Vanilla Dunes by Khadlaj. I have used Art Of Nature II by Lattafa,and Althair by Parfums de Marley. They all smell very much alike but of the four, Art Of Nature II is my favorite.

I just got this and OMG what a beautifull fragrance. I love anything amber and bergamont. This is like a cozy winter feeling infront of the firepit. Presentation is beautifull and price is great. Safe blind buy.

Great scent opens with a heavy citrus then quickly goes to a musky vanilla and continues to dry down to a sweeter vanilla, the more I wear it the more I love it definitely surprised with this.

Reminds me of Devotion. I'm getting citrus and vanilla. Its stronger citrus than Devotion. I've never smelled Althair or liquid brun so can't compare. Blind buy. I like it!

All the dupes of althaïr are better then althaïr This one gets the dna right , you can’t go wrong with it, lasts a decent amount of time and gets complements

I love it. Such a nice unisex scent. Slightly sweet, slightly fresh and spicy. Great for cooler weather and evening out. Very pleasant scent for sure.

Right off the opening you will know what this is cloning, 95% althair, not sure how compares to liquid brun, but this is 10/10 a winter/fall gem

If you like althair PDM , you must try this one it's 90% similar , long lasting wih strong projection 🔥🔥, the presentation is something else 😍😍

A sweet, warm, and creamy clone of PDM Althaïr. Versatile, long-lasting, and a favorite for evenings or special occasions.

comfort scent,warm vanilla,a bit of spices. You can't go wrong with it, it's very likeable profile I'd say

Art Of Nature II vs Liquid brun 🤔

I'm female and this is unisex; it starts slightly male cologne leaning and then becomes softer, warmer and more feminine in the dry down. I may be somewhat anosmic to it as others smell this on me when I can barely pick it up, until the base notes. It's not what I was expecting and to be truthful I was hoping for more or different. There is no apple note whatsoever. This is soft cardamon and frankincense with cedar, light incense and a hint of orange blossom. It reminds me of the sickly, rather generic Teriaq Intense in the opening. My daughter thinks this smells like a nice spa. It then nuzzles down to a softer, cardamon vanilla that is comforting and warms up with your body heat. It doesn't project hugely but lasts a good 14 hours on me.

Fairly one dimensional, but exceptionally warm and pleasant for extremely cold days/nights. Highly recommend AoNII. I sprayed Althair on my left wrist and AoNII on my right wrist and they were 90-95% similar with the former performing slightly longer. Very impressive since dupes do not often go above the 70-80% range of accuracy. Highly recommend this over Al Dirgham. While the pistachio note in Al Dirgham is a pleasant twist, AoNII lacks the abrasive cheap alcohol opening found in Al Dirgham and cuts right to the chase. I have not sampled LB so cannot compare yet. AoNII is a safe blind buy, especially if you enjoy Althair and want something in the 90-95% range of accuracy that doesn’t smell like cheap alcohol (i.e., Al Dirgham).

It’s alright imo, I bought Burberry London for my mom recently and for some reason it reminds me of it just not a strong, it is very sweet which I like but not in a vanilla way, I definitely smell the mandarin and rose notes more than vanilla. Cotton candy vibes the best I could describe. I Chose this over liquid Braun but if they’re similar like people say I’ll probably pass on trying it. a good fragrance over all, lasted on my skin 8 hours so far and still going strong.

I agree with Montegrappa's review somewhat. I prefer the smell of Liquid Brun to Althair than Art of Nature II. Brun does have better projection and duration to me and is more similar to Althair than AoN II. I like AoN II, but I LOVE Brun and Althair. I probably wear AoN II to spray and go. But my Liquid Brun and PDM Althair are for special occasions or to impress.

@StoneEagle06 Yes for me too the caps aren't that good, the Art of Universe is similar also. The Fragrance is nice though and as mentioned it seems like its similar to Liquid brun and Vanilla dunes, I've all 3 and I do like them all but is one is less sugary and spicy on the off, a little more toned down, its definitely on the same vibe though.

A really good fragrance! To me, this is better blended than Liquid Brun by French Avenue (which I still like, though), since this does not have the same strong/piercing/sharp ambroxan and orange blossom. It is a bit more subtle in this, which I like, but it still has great longevity and sillage.

Never smelled Althair, but the opening reminded me of Pegasus, only its weaker, more subtle, sits closer to the skin and has god-awful longevity. I don't dislike it, but there is nothing groundbreaking here. I call discontinuation in 3 years max.

Very vanilla heavy, I don't really get the same vibes as PDM Althair like everyone said but overall a solid fragrance. I would say this is unisex.

Love changed to aversion. After few "honeymoon" days with 'Liquid Brun', 'Art of Nature II' and 'Al Dirgham Special Edition Ard Al Zaafaran' that share the same DNA I started to smell something harsh there. In all three at the same time. Later ordered sample of 'Monarque Armaf' (the same DNA) only confirmed that. I do not know what it is exactly but I assume it's orange blossom that I started to recognize more intensivelly and started to irritate me. Similar experience was described by Maximewantsfragrances earlier in comments.

Initially when I first got this fragrance I was in love with it, perfect citrus and vanilla combo. Pre maceration, it was a near perfect interpretation of Althair. However, after maceration its composition has changed leaving me rather disappointed. It gained a sour aspect which to me was off putting, as if the orange blossom had turned into a sharp floral which wasn't pleasant. All together, great from the start, poor ending after maceration.

As Abraham Lincoln said "You shouldn't believe everything you read on the internet" And this is a fine example. The internet told me this stuff is amazing. However..... The reality is this stuff is irksome, clinging and thoroughly sickly sweet unpleasant. I've now had it 10 months and its shown no development or change over that time. Its the same as day one. I wanted to love this and believed all the hype but I've now tried wearing this on 6 different occasions over 10 months and i've never liked it, i've been waiting for it to live up to the hype and rating score. It hasn't even come close. I just don't get the hype and love for this one at all. Its a basenote in all essence, just a basenote. Nothing else, anywhere. Not at first, not later in the day, not months down the line. Its a basic bland basenote of nauseauting chocolate orange with a dark deep dull odour like bacterial mould. Irritatingly, its longevity is absolutely excellent, while projection is below average. maceration has achieved nothing for this fragrance. Its just beyond me why anyone is hyping this and so many people seem to love it. Its one of the worst offerings from Lattafa i've tried This one was an immediately proceed to bathroom and wash off scrubber more than once. I came back to it yesterday and with an open mind wore it a few hours before again scrubbing it off and definitively concluded i officially and honestly hate it no matter how hard i've tried to believe otherwise based on the hype. Its had its chances over the months and in all honesty everything about it to me is just amateurish and bad. The horses on the packaging and bottle look like a 9 year old designed it with crayons and won a local under 10 level competition to design a perfume because Lattafa couldn't be arsed. Its dull, lifeless and deeply unispiring on all levels. This ended up as a charity donation. 2/10 for me

“It smells like burnt plastic.” “It has a synthetic scent and doesn’t last long. It’s nauseating.”

smells like a cheap mercedes perfume. Mercedes Benz Club Black.

I was at my local perfume/cosmetic store when I saw Art of Nature II. The bottle/presentation was (still is) corny asf, yet intriguing. So I tried it, and I thought it was outstanding. I kept thinking of it, so I searched it up on fragrantica, and is supposedly inspired by PDM Althair. Which I have never smelled before. Althair is of course a very hyped up fragrance, but I never cared for it, since it was out of my price range, I couldn't find it anywhere in store, and I never cared much for gourmands. Art of Nature II changed that. Sweet, addictive vanilla with cardamom, frankincense and a touch of white florals. It's no doubt a sweet-gourmand, but not in the usual "edible" nature. Hard to describe. Very good fragrance. So I bought it on a discounter, and when it arrived it was just as good as it was in store. It reminds me of a shampoo my mother used, called moroccanoil, however (and this was my main concern), it didn't come off too feminine for me. I saw a review below saying that it changed, for the worse, after macerating. I hope mine doesn't because it was fantastic right out of the box. I get around 6-7 hours with good projection on skin, and I find the scent to be pretty linear- but I'm not complaining. Overall, great fragrance, glad I bought it (so far). Also, for anyone who has any of the "lattafa Pride" fragrances, is that cap really shtty for you as well? My good friend has Vintage Radio, and his bottle's cap also sucks.

It is similar to PDM Althair but quite similar to TF Noir Extreme. It can be called the summery (except for extreme heat) - spring version of Noir Extreme. The opening is intense bergamot, it fades in 30 minutes, until the last drydown you can feel rose, cardamom, orange blossom, very light vanilla. There is never too much woodiness, it is unisex with a male tendency. I will continue to buy lattafa's extremely high quality products without paying excessive amounts anymore. Don't think, buy!!! score: 8/10

I think I prefer the smell of Liquid Brun to Althair or Art of Nature II. Brun has as good or better projection and duration for me and is more similar to Althair than AoN II to my nose. I like all three of them. My 10ml sample of Althair is nearly gone;I won't miss it too much since I have the other two. Zumorod by Arabian Oud is described as a stronger/lighter Althair-type scent. Hoping I can sample this stuff. It is rather expensive; a little cheaper than Althair.

A lot more ambroxany than Althair, straight out of the box. Its going to perform insane. Will be expecting the sweeter side to develop cause out of the box its a bit too butch compared to Althair. Curiously, it totally reminds me of an old Lattafa juice called Simply Oud (i dont even know if its here, but its on Parfumo) - so if you want an Althair with a bit of oud and more butch, go after that one (its generally 16-20€)

For a Lattafa I’m surprised this isn’t more strong...unless it simply needs to macerate? Smells semi-similar to Althair and Mercedes Club Black...but less than EDT level. Very alcohol forward on first spray. Overall fragrance is nice but not like any Lattafa I have or have tried as normally they are super beast mode

What a beautiful scent! Pure Niche Quality! Nothing beats lattafa pride and Niche Emarati in terms of quality, price, projection n longevity! When u read reviews check user profiles as well. Fragrantica is now full of fake profiles so be aware. Always try to sample stuff before u buy!

This one is more subtle than liquid brun, smells 95% the same, only Liquid Brun is a tiny more fresh in the opening and it lasts a bit longer too. Still a wonderful scent, if you can't get LB, get this because is almost the same Fragrance.
