Al Qiam Gold

2022

“Saffron and raspberry over leather and oud — dark, resinous and properly grown-up. Winter evenings, and nothing lighter.”

Leather leads Lattafa's 2022 Al Qiam Gold: saffron and raspberry open over leather, settling on an oud base. Leather accords lead, with warm spice, oud and amber and a fruity edge. The raspberry softens the leather into a smoother, slightly jammy profile. Released alongside Al Qiam Silver as a darker counterpart. A winter and fall evening scent.
