@GONÉ VALO: Very kind friend, many thanks for reading and commenting. Give a strong hug. Health and good life always.
Joee, reading the comments I think I’m the only one who hasn’t liked it. It smells like an old wood sawmill and nothing more. The salty notes are very brief at the start, then it’s left with the scent of rotting wood from an old ship. I recommend not buying blindly.
Reminds me of that strong Kenzo EDT Intense maritime. I don’t like the aroma much; not a blind buy. Try Kenzo first, and if you like it, you’ll like Wajood. In longevity and projection, it’s a beast.
Lasts all day. In fact, it’s one of the longest-lasting I’ve tried. For men only. Strong opening of marine notes and pepper. The scent after drying remains pleasant, with the marine and old ship spirit prevailing above all, maintaining that ‘strength’ without fading. I don’t recommend buying blindly if you can test it first, as it won’t suit everyone. But with such an accessible price, I imagine many will take the risk without issues.
It throws out a hefty blast of wet wood, an intense scent that reminds me a lot of Kenzo Homme Intense. As it dries, that wet wood note fades but remains the protagonist, and upon smelling with attention, I notice a sweet touch in the base. To me, it’s wet wood that has been in the water for a while. I don’t like Kenzo, but I like this more. Not a blind buy; I suggest decanting if you don’t have somewhere to try it. I won’t buy it as it’s not my style, although it’s rich, long-lasting, potent, and has a good trail. I see it as versatile.
Its aroma vibrates between Kenzo Homme Intense and Kenzo Homme EDP. In Wajood, the patchouli and wood are more noticeable; it doesn’t explicitly say fig, but it gives that sensation, perhaps due to the patchouli. At times it recalls Kenzo Homme EDP or Intense, but this is more fruity and luminous with a temperate climate. Wajood is neither sweet nor fruity. I haven’t tried Tom Ford Oud Wood to confirm similarities. It has strong projection, a ‘woody herbal maritime’ scent (not a light aquatic), intense, masculine, and informal. Ideal for all ages, especially young people with confident taste seeking deep aromas and presence. It has no Arab vibe, but Kenzo touches with the Lattafa imprint. Any Westerner or anyone who dislikes the oriental will approve it. If you don’t have Kenzo Homme Intense or EDP, this Wajood brings you the vibe. The quality is noticeable, like in Lattafa’s Pride line. Notable performance, almost in best mode, rivaling Kenzo Homme Intense and surpassing the EDP. Be careful with sprays in enclosed spaces and don’t apply on clothes. Not for extreme climates; its potency is for night and day year-round. Versatile. Recommended: for price and quality, it’s a satisfactory purchase. Regards, Prodad, Lattafa Masa.
A fragrance for all day. One of the ones that has received the most compliments. It was my first perfume of this type and from these Arab brands, and it didn’t disappoint. Bought blindly, and the first time I wore it, more than five people asked about it, even strangers. 100% recommended, an economical price for everything it offers.
Does anyone think it resembles When the Rain Stops by Margiela?
Tested on a decant. The opening is spectacular, blending the best of Kenzo and Oud Minerale with a drying down of wet, salty wood. I’m impressed. A versatile and economical fragrance, but I recommend testing before buying blindly. Between this and Kenzo Marine, I can’t decide which to choose; this is drier, while Kenzo is sweeter. Next purchase.
It blows everything away. It’s truly maritime, not aquatic, but with that vibe of an old beached ship and wood. Original, nothing like Acqua di Gio or Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue. Notes of sea and sandalwood, where the sandalwood lingers at the end. Lasts like a beast: 18 hours on skin, and it still smells on yesterday’s shirt. Pure versatility, strong projection, incredible longevity, and for $32… men, there can’t be anything better.
People, so you do not make the same mistake: this perfume does NOT resemble Kenzo EDT Intense. If you are looking for something similar, go for the EDP or even the Marine from the same line.
I own Wajood and tested Kenzo Homme in a store: they are identical, perhaps Kenzo is a tiny bit sweeter, but practically it is the same thing. I am a normal consumer, nothing of an expert, and I love both. I could say it is my favourite DNA.
I tested the original in a mall and I agree: they are very similar, almost 100% (@Martin Wolfenson, I think you tested another one, this is a clone). If you like Kenzo EDT Intense, save up and buy this; the box is a 10/10 lined in suede. Do not buy blindly: it is for mature noses. Good longevity, better than average; if you macerate it well, it could be a beast.
It smells of salt, as if sandalwood were soaked in seawater and left to dry in the sun with cumin. Generally, cumin smells like armpits to me, but here it is well-crafted, giving an animalic touch in the dry down and blending perfectly with my pH. Beast mode? Not at all. It smells pungent, characteristic, fresh, and salty.
An exquisite BEAST MODE that fills the head. I sprayed it four times and filled the house; I had to open the windows; the next day it was still detectable. It is a nuclear bomb: do not atomise yourself more than twice due to olfactory fatigue. It smells of wet wood, sea, and salt; the sandalwood is there from the start and pink pepper gives it a kick. It is inspired by Kenzo Homme EDT Intense but evokes Orto Parisi’s Megamare, like its flanker. Every use is like navigating a wild sea. It lasted all day on my skin projecting for 3+ hours and on clothes until washing. Ideal for temperate/warm climates, more for night than day. Recommended for men over 30 due to its strong character. Stunning packaging. The marine beast of Arabic perfumery; if Aquaman existed, he would use this.
Excellent fragrance. It recalls Kenzo Homme EDT Intense but without the fruity notes. Wajood is more woody, metallic, salty, and marine, like wood submerged in the sea. It is versatile, not for daytime summer wear but perfect for evening. It is not playful; it is informal yet elegant and mature. Solid longevity: 8 hours without issues.
It reminds me of the smell of the Cuauhtémoc schooner when it is wet at the stern. This is truly a Pride of Lattafa, a Marine Beast. It lasted over 12 hours on my skin and projected for 7 hours. Along with CDNI EDT and Essencial Oud, they are in another league regarding projection.
Excellent value. The opening is a bit synthetic and spicy, nothing like the typical fresh citrus; it is more of a metallic, marine, and dark vibe that I absolutely love. It is not annoying: I wore it in my 4×5 metre living room and no one complained, although it does mute other fragrances if applied heavily. If you find it in Mexico for under 600 pesos, it is a steal. Worth it. I give it 8.0.
I own both: Kenzo Homme EDT Intense and Lattafa Wajood. At first they smell the same, but then they diverge. Kenzo moves towards sweet fig, mint, and green wood; Wajood leans towards amber and freshly cut wood. Both are fresh, but Kenzo is for summer and open spaces (and it gets compliments), whereas Wajood is for winter or enclosed spaces with a maximum of two sprays.
I own Wajood but had never tried Kenzo before. Today I tested it on my skin and they are 90% identical; Kenzo feels slightly more premium, although Wajood lasts longer. If you are looking for an alternative to Kenzo Intense, this is the one. Bear in mind, it is not for everyone: test it first or have a trained nose. Both are exquisite.
I tried it by chance while looking for a perfume for Mother’s Day. Once I had chosen the gift, I noticed a small 20ml bottle that caught my attention due to the format. Out of curiosity, I asked the girl if I could smell it and was impressed. As previously said, calling it ‘aquatic’ falls short. It’s a mature and woody perfume. It has a beautiful opening with marine notes and the kick of the pepper. As it dries, it takes a sweeter tone without becoming cloying. I would use it… I think it’s not a blind buy, but it is a perfume worth considering. It’s very rich and worth a quarter of what the Kenzo costs. Given the price difference, there’s no reason to doubt it. The somewhat ‘dark’ opening placed me in a cold climate, but after two minutes it reveals its great versatility. In my opinion, it looks spectacular in any climate.
I have just acquired this fragrance from Lattafa. The opening is somewhat synthetic, but I think I can smell the pink pepper. Basically, at first, it smells like a common fresh, catalogue perfume for men. Then, after a few minutes, I notice leather and sweet marine and woody notes. It’s elegant and sweet in the dry down, leaving a sweet leather trail. I’m wearing it in the heat and after 5 hours it’s already clinging to the skin (unless it’s olfactory fatigue). I had to atomise it many times on clothes for it to project as I like. I recommend it for men over 35. The packaging is pretty and simulates leather, although the notes don’t say so, but I do feel it. The container is very voluminous and doesn’t fit on my shelf, so I’ll see if I can recycle it. I’ll continue using it, perhaps let it macerate a bit and acquire the other notes. I’ll update my review then.
Speaking of Kenzo, I have both and they really resemble each other very little. The most notable point of Kenzo, the fig, is not present in the Wajood.
A gift that I use occasionally for casual daytime outings when I can’t decide what to wear. It smells fresh, slightly salty, and avoivallad. It’s not a winner for me, but I dislike it not at all.
How I appreciate this hidden gem that no one has hyped. This will leave you looking sharp day or night. I started in the Arab world with this wonder. Almost everyone starts with the CDN, but as a lover of fresh scents, this is a bomb in terms of longevity, projection, and price. I recommend it and without a doubt, it won’t be the first bottle from this brand I buy. Thumbs up.
To start, it’s a perfume bomb. The aroma is marine, salty, and mossy with a very prominent sandalwood and a touch of pink pepper that gives it freshness. I also detect something mineral. As some say, it has that shipwood touch, but it’s not negative. It’s totally different from the current trend: formal, solemn, fresh yet dense and woody. It doesn’t smell synthetic at all; it’s a natural work of art. The resemblance to Kenzo EDT Intense is minimal; both are marine with sandalwood, but Kenzo is sweeter due to the fig and more strident, whereas Wajood is earthier and wetter. Neither are blind buys. The longevity and projection are among the best I have, although Kenzo still edges it out slightly. I see it as perfect for cool days of 15-20 degrees or with rain, but it can be heavy in the heat. It’s dense and elegant, ideal for formal events. The bottle isn’t my favourite in terms of design but it atomises well. I bought it for 30 euros, an incredible price for something that would cost 150 or 200 in niche. Every collector should own it.
It is the mid-range perfume that has garnered the most praise from me, both in summer and winter, with no difference. Excellent performance and the cost is lower than its real value. 100% recommended. Timeless scent, lively and very fun.
I bought it again and it remains a great perfume bomb with brutal projection. It smells like those woods from salty, damp beaches, with notes of pink pepper, vetiver, and a hidden sandalwood that is a timeless beauty. I’ll buy it again when the prices drop.
Total perfume bomb. The Fragrantica note doesn’t do it justice. In my experience, it’s more potent than the Kenzo. Updated 3/8/25: after using it repeatedly, I believe I’ve developed olfactory fatigue, but now I can hardly smell it at all.
I am radically honest: the hype from influencers comparing this Wajood to Kenzo is misleading. If you’re looking for a fresh, aquatic ‘blue’ scent to please everyone, or if you’re under 40, think twice before buying it blindly. For us, those over 40 who grew up with the classic fougères of the 80s and 90s, it’s a different story altogether. It doesn’t smell like sea water; rather, it’s a woody fougère with herbs and spices, reminding me of L’Eau d’Issey Intense or Guy Laroche’s Horizon. It’s a vintage 80s gem with pink pepper, vetiver, and patchouli—nothing of that modern freshness. If you want something with character and mature elegance, you’ll love it; if you’re after fashion, it’s not for you.
The first time I sprayed it, it hurt my head; it has a very strong opening the first few times, with time it becomes softer. It lasts all day, more than 8 hours, and projects a lot. You have to be careful with sprays; if you like Kenzo Homme EDT Intense, this resembles it by 99%, and for the price I pay I’d go for this.
I don’t understand the criticism of Wajood. I bought it for $22 and at the same time bought the Kenzo Homme EDP for $56, more than double. Although they aren’t identical, they are similar. The Kenzo is less synthetic, only in that is it better, period. Apart from that, the difference in scent lies in the woods, as in the Wajood there is a predominant sandalwood while in the Kenzo patchouli is more present. The biggest difference is in the projection: although the Kenzo is long-lasting, it’s personal sillage; conversely, the Wajood has a heavier sillage. If you want to know the scent, go for the Wajood, and if you like it buy the Kenzo, although with this you wouldn’t add much variety to your collection. A thousand times I’d go for the Wajood. Wajood is BBB. Just be careful with sprays, measure as you go since if you overapply it can indeed make you dizzy.
The opening is quite strong and spicy, it resembles the Kenzo opening by 50%, then the opening fades and it stays in that characteristic KENZO smell. In the dry down it’s already 90% similar; I paid $19 for the fragrance and for the packaging and everything it has, it’s absolutely worth it. A different scent, that feels in the air and evokes feelings of the sea and aquatic-woody notes. I certainly recommend it a lot.
The opening is terrible, but terrible, seriously: an unbearable smell of cumin or nutmeg. When it dries down it’s pleasant, put it this way, something ‘similar’ to Kenzo but it would be the Arab version of the same, it still has that characteristic smell of Arab perfumery. No one is going to tell you: ‘What a great perfume!’. And if they do, they’re messing with you. Thank god I bought a decant…
It doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. The opening is a direct hit to the nose; the dry down is the best part of all. The scent is basically wet woods floating on a salted sea on a cloudy day. It can result in a melancholic vibe. Something mature, for men over 30, versatile use day and night, formal or casual, any season of the year. Projects incredibly and doesn’t stop. Lasts more than 7 hours but you have to be careful with sprays or it can be annoying. Anyway, it’s not for everyone, only for those who already have some experience with fragrances, otherwise it’s difficult to like. 7.8/10
I bought it blindly due to the hype. And at first, I didn’t like it much. The opening is overwhelming… but as it dries down, it becomes quite pleasant. My wife likes it. These days I went out and visited a sports shop, and the girl who attended to me at that moment gave me a compliment. So I’m using it more frequently. It seems women really like the smell of the sea, of wet wood.
Well, this isn’t for everyone; I see it as a bit more mature and consider it a best mode. It’s an excellent perfume, honestly, I’ve wanted it for a long time as I’m head over heels for Kenzo. If you’re looking for a dupe, it’s not the most accurate choice, but if you’re seeking something rich for summer, this is perfect. I see it as semi-formal; I don’t consider it daily because it can be overwhelming; personally, I’ve applied eight sprays and it’s already too strong for me. It’s a gem, but not for everyone. If you want to buy it, I recommend trying a decant or visiting a perfumerie. It’s exquisite; at first, it’s your tide. It’s very strong. To repeat, it’s good. Continuing on this topic, that marine note is exquisite; it combines with a salt note, perfect, giving it stability. It lasts eight to ten hours on skin, projection is excellent, firm for about three hours. It’s for something more semi-casual, something casual. I’m not sure if it’s that versatile, although you have that marine note, if it doesn’t overwhelm. Differences from Kenzo: this is stronger, obviously more synthetic. Here in Chile I found it, a friend bought it for $20 as a gift, but here in Chile it’s found for 30 or 35 thousand, a good price for the perfume it is.
I don’t think the opening is that bad; perhaps sharp, but not bad. It’s a marine and salty fragrance, rich, semi-formal, and excellent for heat, but the woody notes make it very rich in cold. The profile is neither youthful nor sweet; it’s a woody, marine, and salty scent.
The first time I wore it, it immediately reminded me of a perfume I knew years ago. After about thirty minutes, the image of Kenzo surfaced in my mind and I couldn’t shake it. That is, at once, the strength and the weakness of this fragrance. It resembles a Kenzo, but with a less ‘earthy’ touch and a slightly Arab and oriental style.
$32 vs $80: Kenzo EDP doesn’t smell like Kenzo Intense (that herbal fig scent), but rather reminds me of Santal Marine with less cumin. As it dries down, it leans more towards the EDP due to the patchouli and leather, nothing floral or a Tom Ford clone. There’s a chasm in longevity between Kenzo fragrances; from 2021 to 2023 they were good, but in 2024 and 2025 they dropped significantly, especially the Indigo which is the worst. It’s a great marine alternative, neither youthful nor party-ready. They say it lacks salt, but the salt is in Porto Neroli by Maison Alhambra. It is woody, but not the third note. Recommended: it’s better than Santal Marine and the EDP in terms of strength and longevity, although Marine smells better in its pure aroma. Don’t confuse it with Best Mode regarding longevity.
