Lattafa
Oud for Glory EDP
“Budget oud for people who thought oud was too complicated — it's not.”
Lattafa's 2020 release — a saffron-oud composition that closely mirrors the Initio Oud for Greatness profile. Lavender in the top, with a metallic oud-patchouli base. A well-regarded budget alternative in the modern oud-saffron category. Wears strongest in fall and winter, evening.
