Vintage Radio

Vintage Radio is a fragrance I never expected to love this much. When I first got it, I thought this was just another gourmand fragrance. The dry down didn't even help, as I found it to be "annoyingly milky", but little did I know that I was in for a treat as I kept wearing it... The opening is all about the plum. It's more of a candied plum than a juicy fresh one. This started to remind me of a plum flavored lollipop I licked over 3 years ago. As that begins to settle a bit, you begin to detect the lavender in the background. Palo Santo is a note I missed the first time I wore this, instead I got sandalwood. But after frequent wearing, I began noticing a different kind of woody facet I haven't experienced before. This woody nuance feels sweet, smokey and dry. I haven't smelt the original Palo santo before, but I know what sandalwood smells like and it's not what I get after that plum phase. Another note that plays a role in this fragrance is the black pepper. It keeps the fragrance slightly spicy. I can get that lavender and black pepper smell moreso when I sniff the atomizer deeply. Lavender has a way to keep a fragrance luscious and soft, and here it does just that. Palo Santo is a note that fascinates me now. It's the soul of this fragrance, and it is what keeps one coming back to have a sniff. Damn, this gets so beautiful and addictive over time. It's PERFECTLY UNISEX. But even if the opening appears feminine to you, or the fragrance appears too much on the first few sprays, give it a few minutes to charm you, if that doesn't work, give it days to seduce you...in one way, day or another, it must surely get you, and you'll be the one begging to stop sniffing. Longevity is great. Solid 8hrs+, with a considerable amount of sillage and projection. Final rating: 9 Also, the bottle isn't that bad. It's unique enough, tbh. What I just don't like is the idea of using a white bottle. It stains easily, and the cap can't carry the bottle—the cap don't click tighter to carry the weight of the bottle. But other than these, the bottle is pretty good. The oil concentration in Vintage Radio appears heavy. I like and commend the efforts Lattafa is putting into their pride series. This, just like Masa, is just amazing quality for the price. And just like its 'sweet' predecessors like Khamrah and Nebras, this might be the next big thing from Lattafa....JUST MAYBE. Finally, fragrantica made a mistake. There's no Oud note in here. Lattafa used Amberwood as opposed to the Oud used in Initio Paragon.

This scent evoked so many things in my brain. My first impression was lemon pie in a wooden box. But then later a new-old world opened up in the memory box that was tossed behind the rush of modern life. It reminds me of old summers, festivals, friendships and the times when I trusted people oh so unconditionally. This scent smells so innocent to me. And then it reminded me of the autums when we go back to school and we reminisce about the crazy summer memories. The whole experience is if I have tuned back into an old frequency of my life. And I hear the background music on the radio. I think the plum and palosanto together can have such a melancholic effect. And I love it so much. I don't know nothing about Paragon. I like this name thought, I should smell it one day. And when I do I promise I will leave a comparison comment here behind. I have quite a trained nose, but it doesn't tell anything actually. Still can be very different or very similar depending on the associations I have developped with certain smells. And now about the quality and performance... This was sitting on my shelf for 6 months now. I did like it when I bought it. I found it on a shelf of a notino boutique. I ordered it immediately. So something must have captivated me. But then I didn't care too much. Now it's summer and it makes sense why I started to develop feelings towards it. This is just so special. Lingers beautifully and projects the whooooole day. And the slightly sweet powdery woody drydown... Beautiful. I don't get the witchy label though. Perhaps because I am a witch😅. But all in all performance is above average. I wouldn't say its a beast, because for me this scent profile is not that category. But really impressive. Worth every penny. The scent itself is not vintage, but the memories it evokes might very well be. I totally can imagine this on a guy, I think it is rather masculine. But it works well with my skin.

Note: I have now smelled Initio Paragon, and it has a bit more of a mature spice learning element, but this frag is still 93% similar. Vintage Radio is a beautiful scent that gives a mature, sophisticated vibe while still being a scent that you can grab if it's not extremely hot. Not gonna lie, the top notes for this frag does a any % speedrun for how fast they can dissipate. Only the lavender peaked through upon first spray more than a week ago, but now the fragrance immediately opens into the dominant luxurious plum with woody undertones(maybe my nose is still immature, but the black pepper is barely noticeable so don't let it affect your decision). After a few hours the plum steps back and allows the palo santo to do most of the talking, which allows this scent to be a great fall/winter scent, while the plum still comes through while in speaking distance. The sandalwood is nothing amazing, it's still my favorite scent ever but for being a base note(6-8 hours in), it does what its supposed to do (the oud note does not come out significantly at all, its definitely blending in to help uplift the plum longer.) TLDR; blind buy safe imo, Longevity 7-8 hours, Significant Projection: 4-5.5 maaaybe 6 hours. All of the budget for this fragrance went into the juice, not the bottle. Maturation/Maceration is a superhero for this fragrance, it was love at first smell, a week later it may be marriage. Note (1/9/26) I still love this scent and its profile, but olfactory fatigue hits hard, makes you think that the projection has suffered. Don't worry, everyone can still smell you. Also I cannot stand the bottle shape of this frag, I don't have hands like Shaq so spraying the back of my neck feels very challenging, and missing your spray isn't uncommon either. Also can't hold this by the cap, don't even try.

"Smoothness in a bottle", that is the best way to describe Lattafa's Vintage Radio. To be honest, I am not familiar with the original (Initio Paragon), but based on all the hype and reviews I decided to take a gamble and do a blind buy. And man, am I happy I did! First off, the presentation is on another level. The packaging is pure luxury: a soft-touch box with a beautiful Lattafa Pride emblem that makes you feel like you’re opening something very expensive. Inside, you’ll find the bottle, which is a bit tacky or 'love it or hate it' with the radio design. But the juice inside? Oh boy... it absolutely blew me away. On the first spray, you get hit with a very high quality, smooth lavender scent accompanied by a fresh touch of bergamot. But the real magic happens pretty quickly after that. The plum and Palo Santo notes start to kick in, and that is what makes this fragrance truly unique. It doesn’t smell like your typical designer scent; it smells fantastic, expensive, and most of all: it is incredibly smooth. There are no harsh edges here. The projection is pretty decent; it’s not going to fill a whole room and annoy people, but it creates a very nice 'scent bubble' around you. Longevity seems solid, especially if you get some on your clothes, you'll be smelling those creamy, woody plum vibes for a long time. Be prepared to get complimented if you wear this, because it smells unlike anything else people are used to. It’s a 10/10 for me, especially considering the price-quality ratio. If you want something unique that screams class, just get it!

Lattafa Vintage Radio opens with a bright plum that feels rich and sweet without becoming syrupy. Fresh citrus and aromatic facets give the fragrance lift, making it noticeably brighter than its dark fruit might suggest. A smooth, creamy woody backbone is already present, tying everything together into a polished composition with an excellent balance of fruity sweetness, freshness, and woods. As the fragrance develops, the plum remains the focal point while a subtle peppery bite and a slight funky nuance, likely from the oud, begin to emerge. Rather than distracting from the composition, they add depth and contrast to the smooth sweetness. The creamy woods continue to support the fragrance, keeping everything refined and cohesive. The drydown gradually shifts away from the fruit as the woody base takes over. The woods remain smooth and creamy while developing a drier peppery edge and a noticeable resinous quality that adds depth without becoming heavy. By the final hours, the sweetness has almost completely disappeared, leaving behind a smooth, dry, woody fragrance with restrained spice and resinous warmth. Overall, I really enjoyed this wear. It opens sweet yet fresh with a bright, creamy character before naturally transitioning into a woody drydown with excellent depth. The fragrance remains exceptionally smooth and well blended from start to finish, and its balance of bright plum, creamy woods, and resinous drydown makes it a unique addition to my collection. Score: 8.5/10

To the guy that does not get the hype... I kind of feel sorry for you (seeing that you have an Odyssey fragrance as your signature scent, I guess it makes sense). Every nose is different, but I have almost a hundred bottles and this is top 5, no question. That bright, fizzy plum and lavender opening is unforgettable - in the best way imaginable. I applied it side by side with Vintage Radio on one arm, Teriaq Intense on the other (not because they are similar, just a random comparison with another fragrance with a plum note). Every facet about Vintage Radio is better. They both had killer longevity of 20 freakin' hours - Teriaq was almost imperceptible while Vintage Radio was still a very pleasant skin scent. Vintage takes some maturation to get to that point, it's been in my collection for about 5 months now. It's not as sophisticated as Teriaq Intense, but it's simply gorgeous from first spray to the final fade out. It's uplifting and extraordinarily versatile (all occasions, all seasons). Can't please everyone... but, have fun for the three hours that Odyssey lasts... look at the bright side, at least you didn't spend $250+ for a 3 oz of Paragon.

This is my first review on this site, excuse me if it isn't that specific or if it is sloppy. I really enjoy this frangrance, i think of it as a special occasion frangrance, not for date nights, but for when i want to smell quite expensive, it's a frangrance that isn't smelled everywhere so its kind of unique in a good way. It has a really high quality smell of plum which add to my liking. Most people don't really like it and i can tell why, it doesn't suit most people, and it really can't be worn everywhere. But if it suits you then be expected to receive some compliments. It has good projection and longevity id give it 8/10 Smell wise for me id give it 9/10 Is it for summer? Not that much, you may be able to use it if you can layer if with another frangrance.. In quick summary: this frangrance is good for special occasions. It doesn't suit everyone but is a good compliment getter if it does suit you. It has good performance for it's price.

This smells a lot like Initios Paragon but instead of Oud in the base of the scent, there is Amberwood. So the paragon relation is there with the rest of the scent, but the Amberwood makes the scent a bit sweeter but, it does still have that creaminess. The Amberwood makes the Palo Santo citric instead of smoky wood.. you still get that pepper, but never a smoky wood more of a citric spice wood. Still gives you that lavender, bergamot, sage n plum creamy opening that smells a lot like a green apple being bit into and the juice running down you (or maybe that’s just what I smell lol).. it stays sweet and with the Palo Santo it doesn’t go smoky pepper with Oud. That Palo Santo goes in a citrus-pepper direction with the Amberwood. It is a beautiful scent by itself and if you enjoy this, you will enjoy Initios Paragon as well. Not a 1 to 1 with Paragon but it gets it 95% close to that scent.

Opening: A blend of plum, lavender, tinier hints of citruses and spices 8.5/10 Later: Plum is still strong here and spices become a bit more visible. Also palo santo appears here with a bit of pepper. 9/10 Projection and sillage: The projection is quite solid - 2-3 of hours of fair projection after which its a small bauble around you 7.5/10 Price:quality 8.5/10 Overall: It's a really pleasant and unique scent. I do find its profile quite special with the notes of plum and palo santo which combined give a really good effect. It's one of the perfumes in which I could constantly open my sample just to smell it, it's a really pleasant one. It's quite universal, as in you can use it on almost all times of the year, except +25 oC degrees (in which it might become too sweet). If plum and palo santo sounds like something for you, I'd strongly recommend this one.

Vintage Radio is a love for me. We are on our second bottle (my husband and I both use it). You need to enjoy the notes of palo santo and plum to enjoy it. I smell creamy woods with a bit of sweetness. It gives me a spa like feeling. It projects really really well and lasts very long. I always get a lot of compliments when I wear this. People normally comment that it smells clean or cozy. It is one of those middle eastern scents that need a few weeks to settle/mature. A new bottle can come across as a bit harsh, but this goes away completely as it matures. I’ve smelled Paragon. To me they differ in the opening. Paragon is a bit smoother in the opening and more refined, but in the drydown they are 1:1. Vintage Radio projects better than Paragon and has better longevity. I think it smells much more expensive than the price.

The name says it all. One spray and you’re transported — grandpa’s house, wooden furniture, vinyl records, Patek Philippe watches. That warm, golden 80s nostalgia in a bottle. At its heart: a fougère-green, grassy vibe with a dark plum sweetness that keeps it from ever feeling flat. Vintage but never boring. If you love Zino Davidoff, Gucci Envy, Paco Rabanne Pour Homme or Eternity for Men — this one’s calling your name. Performance? Undefeated. Hours of projection, a sillage that enters before you do, and a bottle that looks triple the price. Lattafa keeps winning. Stop sleeping on this one. SO GUYS: Your next signature scent doesn’t have to cost designer/ luxury niche money. Well done LATTAFA 9/10

For a while, I was trying to collect one of every type of wood. Palo santo, birch, pines and firs, cedar, sandalwood - this was just another on the list. Palo santo, nice! I didn't have one. This was a blind buy, which I usually discourage, but Lattafa has never steered me wrong. If I could only keep 10 of my Lattafa, this would be one of them. It's one of those grounding, calming scents. Reminds me of incense. I didn't know this was a dupe when I purchased it and I don't care about something I didn't buy nor have smelled. I care about what I bought, and the scent is what I want it to be. Good longevity and sillage and it makes me happy.

I’ve been waiting to get my hands on this and I can attest to the reviews it’s pretty good, when you spray it you get the sweet jammy plum and the spicy lavender and sage then as it drys down it turns into this creamy almost laconic words which I’m guessing is the palo santo. Very unisex, I’ve found that adding a basic bergamot heavy male fragrance layers so well and makes it a masculine sweet scent. Only issue was the projection, it’s alright so you might be able to pull it off in the summer but the longevity is pretty good. Keep in mind this is pre maceration so it might get better silage after a bit. 10/10

I've worn this multiple times now and really like it (except for the bottle, which sticks out like a sore thumb on my vanity). It's a little synthetic but not enough to bother me. Longevity is great--two sprays and I'm good for the day. The opening is slightly harsh but then it calms down and smooths out into a wonderful plum and palo santo, which is just what I was looking for. This was a blind buy that actually worked out (unlike another Lataffa I tried). Definitely unisex--not too masculine for me to wear. I doubt I'd wear it in hotter months, but we'll see. For the price, it's pretty hard to beat. 8.5/10

This definitely needs to mature for a solid 2-3 months. But after that, it is an extremely accurate and elegant clone of Paragon. Like many clones, the scent seems to be a bit bolder, sweeter, and less rounded. All that is from comparing side by side and really nitpicking, though. Vintage radio opens up with a note of dark plum jam, spiced with lavender petals and sage. As it dries down, the palo santo and vanilla come out, giving a slightly citric but creamy wood impression. It definitely has a "vintage" vibe to it, but in the most therapeutic and comforting way possible. It's also extremely unisex.

This is NOTTTT blind buy safe! The ratings are biased because of hype. At first I didn't like it! I can get the old lady in dusty house reference. By the name vintage radio it sets the scene! The plum is not airy but heavy and rounded, hits like it's been locked in a humid room and you open that door and it knocks you over. I think it smells better from someone not wearing it. Although it's a unique captivating scent, definitely a hand sniffer. It's an acquired scent, some definitely will love it and hate it. I like it more now. However it wouldn't be in my collection if it wasn't blind bought.

I am new to this fragrance journey, but this is the first fragrance that I : 1. Finished 2. Purchased second bottle I have smelled the original multiple times, amazing for sure!! This one is amazing as well, and for that price you cannot beat it. I struggle with longevity on skin with many fragrances but somehow this one sticks to me very well and I can smell it all day on clothes. Welcoming, non-offensive comforting scent that opens up with that nice juicy plum and dries down to sweet woods. Made it my signature scent last go around, might do the same this time again. Love this stuff!

If i had to throw all of my fragrances away and keep just 2 i would absolutely keep Lattafa Vintage Radio and Afnan Supremacy Collector's Edition- These two are 10/10, no debate. They last like forever, smell heavenly and they are reallllly realllyy close to the fragrances they are cloning. If you are planning to buy but the bottle design feels unatractive - trust me buy it. It doesnt smell vintage, or like stale, wet wood even if the name invokes those associations with some people. And trust me it really does smell dreamy and meditative like some of the users pointed out.

1 month later and it is now a very well blended, plum, floral, soapy fragrance. Unisex but every elegant, give a softs clean put-together vibe. Great longevity, I get around 7-8 hours with medium projection. Safe blind buy for the office or everyday formal situation. You can really smell the plum in this and as someone who isn't fond of floral scents for men, this one is very non-offensive to me. Wouldn't be my first recommendation, but you can't go wrong with it especially if you like plum, just give it some time to macerate. 8/10

This is genuinely my go-to, "something different" fragrance. I got this as a gift and almost had to kiss the person who gave it to me—it's that good. The scent is incredibly smooth and powdery, with none of the sharpness you find in so many other popular frags. It hits all the right notes: fruity, warm, and perfectly well-rounded, with the plum note really taking center stage. The whole experience is 100% worth it, and the projection on this is genuinely beast mode. Verdict: 9.5/10—Essential status unlocked.

To my nose it smells like a photorealistic classic green apple candy flavor. It smells like the green apple big league chew gum or a green apple hi-chew. Nevertheless I think this is a phenomenal fragrance for the price. As someone in my early twenties I can’t say I have any trouble pulling this off for my age, like I have seen some people saying in the comments. I do think the sweetness of this fragrance makes it youthful and appealing. My girlfriend also really loves this one on me which is a huge plus!

I've never smelt the Paragon original so I don't know if it's a good clone. The plum note is powdery and creamy. Then the lavender, pepper, and vanilla come in the dry down. I used to love it but now I find myself wearing other plum fragrances, mainly Terriaq Intense, but I will reach for this at least once a month. I got this originally as a 20 ml in a Sample set then I bought a gift set (100ml cologne, spray and 20ml travel bottle) for $37 on E-Bay. Great value and scent lasts 24 hours on clothes.

My favorite Initio Paragon dupe. Gets as close to the original as I can tell, and I also own Al Nashama since I was already enamored by that one along with having tried Paragon. The only problem with Al Nashama is that it felt too cloyingly sweet and not palo-santo-y enough. Vintage Radio has that woody spicy element with a little bit of oud in the background just to warm it up while keeping the fruity plum note front and center. Super high value for money for a calming, sweet but spiritual, scent.

this is heaven in a bottle. i dont like the name "Vintage Radio" which seems almost AI generated but the smell is absolutely heavenly. forget Khamras, 9PM's, Sedley's and other cliché stuff - this one is the chosen one. smooth, sweet, juicy, inviting, sexy and alluring. you just cant go wrong with it. I smelled Initio Paragon and i must admit i like Vintage Radio better. it perfectly balances woodyness, smokyness and juicyness of the plum. absolute banger and my signature frag!

Witchy. I havnt read any comments on this but I find it a solid witchy perfume. The dark fruit mixed with the woodiness. Evokes a picture of brambles and overgrown forest with old trees in the autumn sunlight. Mystical. Calm. Very niche smelling at a great price. My only criticism is that the Lattafa Pride bottles are ugly as hell and doesn't do the amazing fragrances they contain any justice at all. Not a safe blind buy. Unless you're a hedgerow witch. For me, it's a 10/10.

I'm not a fan of the bottle but I am big fan of the juice in it. This is a tough one to describe. It's sweet and fruity, but the fruitiness isn't fresh and juicy, it's almost like dried fruits. The plum is very present. It's super nicely balanced, not overly anything but just enough of everything it wants to be. Good projection and longetivity too. I'd say it's very unisex. Solid 9/10 for me, definitely signature scent worthy for the cooler seasons.

i have paragon and this. radio is a more sweet take on paragon. i love both i am splitting hair on witch i like the most. for meee tho paragon win's but for the price i am split on it is worth ever buying paragon again. radio come so close that i will still get the same feeling/vibe and still feel the same good way while having it on. for 9 out of 10 people i will say get vintage radio. for me i want both just bc the sent profile is just that GOOD.

Just received today and only just unboxed. On 1st impressions this is truly Hype worthy. Great Plum, Sage, Bergamot ,Polo Santo and Sandalwood fragrance. Don't really get the Lavender in the opening or the Oud in the base but Bye Eck what a fantastic fragrance. Definitely a unique signature all year round, all occasions fragrance. Well worth buying. Best of all I only paid £20.39 delivered for it. This will definitely be getting re bought👍🏻

How in the world Lattafa is putting out this type of quality for the low price is beyond my comprehension. There's absolutely no justification in my opinion to spend $230.00 last i checked on Initio Paragon whrn this gets you 90%+ there for only 30 bucks i mean it is a no brainer for me. This is my own opinion if you want to spend the money for your own reasons is fine you are entitled to your opinion. Amazing juice by Lattafa!

I'm starting to think I love plum notes in fragrances. I've said multiple times that I don't have any more beautiful fragrance in my collection than Vintage Radio, and Al Nashama(Sweet Heaven Ice is up there too). Hats off to Lattafa for making something so gorgeous(twice basically). That lavender cinnamon, plum, and sandalwood my goodness. The powdery, aromatic, spicy, woody, and fruity wonderfulness. Absolute winner!

I ABSOLUTELY love this fragrance. I may be a bit biased because my favorite fragrance of all time is initio paragon lol. Lattafa absolutely nailed this. It is very close. This is a tiny bit sweeter than paragon. I find paragon to be a little bit fresher. In the air though it’s practically 1 for 1. I will be saving paragon for special occasions and using this for the daily driver during winter and evenings.

No hype just keeping it real. I can’t get enough of Vintage Radio. It’s one of the most calming fragrances I own, and I wear it in both winter and summer, personally you can pull it off it’s very easy to wear . It pulls compliments like crazy without trying. To my nose, it leans unisex in the best way. Every time I catch a whiff it reminds me why I bought it. WOWZA I definitely need a backup bottle. 😌

Diabolical synthetic opening that feels like sniffing rubbing alcohol directly . The dry down is decent but still synthetic . Over hyped and not a safe blind buy After 2 months of maceration : I was wrong , this is a beast after maceration . It has become extremely strong and sweet , I love the plum notes and it's sweetness. It's longevity has improved (6 hrs avg) and the projection is great too .

Some say this is a ladies scent and it really is because they’re always approaching me when I’m wearing it. It pulls in loads of compliments in the fall and winter. Love that plum note. It’s definitely different. Is it my favorite? I have way too many scents and too many vibes to have a favorite, but it definitely gets its turn. I love layering it with Lataffa Mashrabya during the Fall months.

Very good spring/fall fragrance. This works as a daily in those transitional seasons, might work as a signature scent too. Very close to the OG. Definitely masculine scent, quite sweet, and the plum, just wow. The plum is very proeminent here and blends well with the palo Santo. Longevity is good and the projection too, especially for the first 2hrs. 9/10 One of the top releases from Lattafa.

At first I didn't like it when I tried it. Now I'm really in love. The scent profile is pure zen. Bliss. Unique. This is officially my second favorite fragrance by Lattafa and Initio. First is Teriaq Intense, second is this one and third is Mashrabya. Bravo interpretation of the OG, Lattafa. Took my nose awhile to mature to like this but here I am. What a masterpiece.

The quality of Vintage Radio really depends on how much you spray it. at around 4 sprays, vintage radio is a versatile and unique fragrance due to the sweetness and creaminess of the plum and palo santo, without being mind numbingly sweet, especially as it starts to dry down. However, sometimes the sweetness can be too overbearing, especially during the summer heat.

It opens with the most delicious juicy plum smell that’s almost sweet, after the top note fades off the lavender and wordiness comes through but the plum sits in the background, eventually drying down to a sandalwood musk. It’s a really nice, clean, juicier take on Paragon. I think I actually prefer it to Paragon. But the bottle design is awful, truly

Clean and comforting. One of my favourite goto-s. Good to sleep in, good to go to work in, good for summer, good for winter. The plum stands out, the rest is just some heavenly creamy, thick white lotion smell to me. This is so inoffensive, versatile, clean, without being generic or soulless, it has character. I love to layer it with SdJ Cheirosa 59.

An absolute art-piece of a fragrance. For me it evokes such nostalgia and coziness without being dusty or old-timey. Spray it on your chest under your shirt and the wafts you get are heavenly. I tried Paragon in person and these two frags are virtually identical, one of the closest clones I have. It also performs exceptionally and long-lasting.

It smells like just out of the most luxurious and expensive spa. It is pretty loud, but mot suffocating. I don't believe you can't wear it in summer, I was fine and it smells relaxing. I know how the Initio Paragon smells but this is not worse at all. It's one of the differentiating perfumes out there when people notice and ask about.

Like I've come to expect from Lattafa, Vintage Radio offers luxury performance at a super affordable price. Opening has a very androgynous sweetness to it, but settles into a more masculine woodiness, pushing the fruitiness backstage. Tasteful projection that lasts forever, can be worn anytime anyplace. My go-to fragrance.

I never smelt Initio paragon, but this is So soo good it smells like red and purple nerds/ fruits with a green woody plum, it just smells like spring time to me, it’s really high quality drop from Lattafa, 8/10 🔥 and also idk why everyone disses the bottle, it’s actually pretty dope engraved textured radio.

This a a beast only and only when macerated properly. I hated it when I first got it (it was super synthetic and alcoholy) but after 3 months of maceration I tried it again and it's insane. Pure plum and sweetness , with an insanely good dry down. Lasts 6 hrs easily and projects for 3 hrs minimum .

I am obsessed with all of the notes. Reminds me of a phonograph if it were a smell, antique shop, smooth-lactonic wood, soft dry down, and grows on you in the best way... I literally tilted my head when I first sprayed. Younger me would not appreciate this... 42 yo me, hell yeah!

I've got both Vintage Radio and Paragon, and I honestly prefer Vintage Radio. It's sweeter and more mass appealing in my opinion. This can be worn on dates, special occasions, and even the office. This is a fragrance that I always keep a backup bottle of, I truly do love it.

Genuinely didn't expect it to smhw become one of my favourites. I'm not a woody guy but that Palo Santo is hella creamy and slightly smoky idk from the oud or from that and with the plum genuinely absolutely unbelievable. And this is without any maceration btw. 10/10 for me

I have an 8ml of Paragon and this smell almost identical! I'm so happy I purchased it because I cannot afford Initio. I will say the Lattafa bottle is very ugly though; I don't get the name Vintage Radio or the bottle art, but it's fine I just flip it around 😂

This is an absolutely beautiful fragrance, with amazing performance and longevity. It’s not too sweet but has the right amount of sweet and earthy tones to smell niche, manly, and complement worthy. Definitely the BEST from the house of Lattafa. 9.3/10

Lavender sage liqueur the first minutes then it turns into this lovely smokey-sweet palo santo-plum. You don't need Paragon if you have this. This is very good and 90% similar for a great price. Paragon lasts a little longer though
