  Well, it just didn’t convince me. At first, it smells like Creed Aventus, but after ten minutes, the patchouli swallows everything. With the moss, it gives off a damp, cold, rainy forest vibe, but in a very negative way. It smells horrible and dirty. Don’t buy it blindly.

  Bad. The opening reminds of the Aventus DNA, but after ten minutes, the patchouli swallows everything, along with the moss, giving a sensation of a damp, cold, rainy forest, but in a bad way. Horrible smell, dirty. Don’t buy it blindly.

  Good perfume, it won me over gradually. The opening is more than fruity, sweet, and pleasantly acidic, with none of the ‘artificial’ quality found in the hyper-hyped black-bottle Arab perfumes. Note: this does NOT imitate Aventus. Once dried down, you notice the floral side and what I like most: earthy, fresh-masculine, leaving the citrus-fruity behind. A touch of green mossy, almost mentholated, reminiscent of a modern, unacknowledged oakmoss. It lasts well, easily surpassing six hours, although the opening fades quickly. A young yet mature perfume, suitable for scorching climates down to mild autumns. Good price-to-quality ratio (Lattafa has already lowered prices). A good discovery, analysed without paying attention to what it’s said to emulate. Try it. Note: the smoke and incense aren’t predominant for me; they function as support but are in the background, so don’t be alarmed. Good similarity with Hacivat, although Al Dana has a more mossy dry-down.

  I don’t care about reviews; the perfume has my name on it, so it’s straight onto my wishlist.

  Good perfume, smells very similar to Hacivat except for some extra sweet notes. It lasts less and has less projection. For the price, it’s excellent, but it’s not niche; it doesn’t smell of that beautiful nature that Nishane evokes.

  Al Dana competes with Hawas Black or Supremacy Not Only Intense (I haven’t tried Hacivat yet) but with less noise and much more elegance. Here, the citrus doesn’t hide behind the pineapple; it’s noticeable all the way through; the pineapple is less strident and more natural, and the notes are clearer. You can feel the green moss, jasmine, incense, smoke, and woods much more delicately than in other scents from this house. It’s like a Hawas but refined, more mature, elegant, and less shouty. It doesn’t perform badly either, lasting a minimum of eight hours, projecting strongly for the first two hours and reaching further with movement. If you like the DNA of those, this Lattafa one takes quality up a notch, totally recommended and light years ahead of other hyped scents from the house. Go for Hacivat.

  Hello, I just picked this fragrance up in Arg amid the new wave of Arabic perfumes. I was looking for a Nishane clone but stumbled upon a brutal Aventus dupe, almost identical to Borouj’s Spiritus. At first, the pineapple is barely noticeable, but the citrus comes through; within minutes it evolves into something citrusy and spicy, calm, with white florals and freshness. Then it transforms into its main phase: valley lilies, woods, smoke, and an oakmoss (even if they don’t say it) that gives a freshness like morning dew in an autumn forest. With just five sprays, it lasted over seven hours. A colleague asked if I’d re-applied, and no; while I was writing this, she asked why it smells from a metre away. It needs to mature; if it’s like the Borouj, it should last around 10-12 hours. It goes all year round, suits all ages, and smells spotless.
