Lattafa Teriaq Intense for Unisex Eau de Parfum Spray, 3.4 Ounce / 100 ml

When I first got this....it was cloying, screechy and bitter, and I thought, ugh....I got influenced and wasted my money.....But I did my due diligence, sprayed it out, and let it sit. Its now 4 months later, and cold outside, so I pulled it back out and gave it another try. Wow, WHAT a difference some time and patience makes! It is now a silky smooth, plum liquor, sweet, and seductive masterpiece, and I am LOVING it! I know that its a bummer to have to wait on some of the middle eastern fragrances for them to fully develop, but for the price point, its worth it, and they turn into a fragrance that smells niche or high end 9 out of 10 times for me. It has lightened up and all of the rough edges are gone, but the longevity is still very much there (7-8 hours with moderate projection for the first few hours. On clothes, you'll smell it the next day for sure- Im an oversprayer!) I can really get the plum note now. Unisex, IMO, and best suited for cooler weather, without the "masculine cologne" vibe in the opening that I sometimes get with other unisex fragrances. Its chefs kiss from first spray through the dry down. If you dont overspray, it could pass in an office setting, but it would 100% be a perfect date night/going out fragrance. If you have this and didn't like it at first, please retry it after letting it sit- it is SO worth the wait! Top Notes: Saffron: Adds a rich, warm, and slightly sweet aroma. Bergamot: Provides a fresh and citrusy opening that brightens the fragrance. Middle Notes: Plum Liquor: Introduces a boozy, fruity sweetness that deepens the scent. Cinnamon: Adds a warm, spicy element that enhances the overall richness. Base Notes: Amber: Contributes a warm, resinous depth that lingers on the skin. Tonka Bean: Offers a sweet, creamy note that balances the spiciness. Benzoin: Adds a sweet, balsamic quality that rounds out the fragrance.

I purchased Lattafa Teriaq Intense about two weeks ago and wanted to wear it multiple times before reviewing. For the price (under $30), the presentation is impressive. The box feels premium and the bottle design stands out with a black top with gold accents and a snake detail that looks way more expensive than it is. Scent: The opening hits with saffron/floral with a touch of bergamot. In the middle, I get a strong plum liquor note right away with a light cinnamon warmth. The dry-down turns sweet and smooth with tonka bean, amber, and benzoin, and it sat really nicely on my skin. Notes: Top: Bergamot, Saffron Middle: Plum Liquor, Cinnamon Base: Tonka Bean, Amber, Benzoin Performance on me: About 10 hours on skin and 12+ hours on clothes. Projection was strong for the first few hours getting around 2–3 feet for roughly 3 hours, then it settled closer. Pros: Excellent presentation, great-looking bottle, outstanding longevity and projection for the money. Cons: The cap doesn’t stay on as securely as I expected and can come off too easily. Overall, I highly recommend Teriaq Intense if you want something bold for date nights or going out, especially in fall/winter or cooler weather. I wouldn’t blind buy if you dislike plum notes, and it definitely leans intense and slightly on the sweeter side. Rating: 5/5

I love this one and it may be the best Lattafa yet. Both Teriaq Intense and Kamarah are standout offerings from Lattafa’s unisex lineup, but they serve slightly different scent personalities and occasions: 🔹 Teriaq Intense — Rich & Deep Character: Warm, spicy-sweet, and bold Vibe: Confident, sensual, slightly smoky Performance: Strong projection and long longevity Best For: Evenings out, fall and winter, dates, bold fragrance lovers Feel: Luxurious without being too sweet 🔸 Khamarha — Sweet & Playful Character: Sweet, gourmand with a hint of warmth Vibe: Fun, cozy, and youthful Performance: Good lasting power, softer projection than Teriaq Best For: Daytime wear, casual occasions, warmer seasons Feel: Sweeter and more approachable 📌 Key Differences Intensity: Teriaq Intense comes across heavier and more dramatic; Khamarha is milder and more playful. Sweetness: Khamarha leans sweeter and fruitier, while Teriaq has a warmer, spicier backbone. Projection: Teriaq generally projects more boldly, making it more noticeable at a distance. ✔ Which Should You Pick? Choose Teriaq Intense if you want something bold, long-lasting, and more mature. Choose Khamarha if you prefer something sweeter, lighter, and versatile for daily wear. Both are excellent value for the price, but they shine in different fragrance moods.

Lattafa Teriaq Intense stands out immediately for one reason that actually matters: this was created by Quentin Bisch. That’s a big deal because he’s one of the most recognizable modern perfumers working today, and you can feel that influence here. For context, Quentin Bisch is behind some extremely popular fragrances like: - Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Elixir - JPG La Belle - Parfums de Marly Delina - Carolina Herrera Good Girl - Ex Nihilo Blue Talisman - Bois Imperial by Essential Parfums So when people say Teriaq Intense feels more “designed” than typical Middle Eastern releases, that’s why. Now the scent itself. From the opening, Teriaq Intense feels bold and different from most Lattafa releases. You get a spicy saffron and citrus hit, which creates a bright but slightly metallic warmth right away. It doesn’t smell cheap or overly synthetic. It smells deliberate. Then the signature note shows up. The heart revolves around plum liquor and cinnamon, which gives the fragrance a rich, slightly boozy sweetness. This is where it really becomes recognizable. That dark fruity warmth gives it a seductive, almost niche-like personality. The drydown is where it turns addictive. You get amber, tonka bean, and benzoin, which create a smooth, resinous sweetness that sticks around for hours. It ends up warm, spicy, and slightly syrupy without going full gourmand. The overall vibe is best described as: dark fruity spice + resinous warmth + modern sweetness It doesn’t feel like a clone of anything obvious. If anything, it feels like it sits in that modern designer-niche crossover space that Bisch is known for. Something that feels bold and sexy but still mass appealing. Performance is another talking point. Many early impressions describe it as strong to very strong, especially in cooler weather. It’s not always nuclear for everyone, but it definitely leans toward the louder side compared to most Lattafas. Stylistically, this is not a safe daily driver. It fits much better in: - fall and winter - nights out - date settings - dressed-up environments - situations where you want to stand out This is very much a “presence” fragrance. Where Teriaq Intense really earns its hype is the combination of: a respected perfumer a unique scent profile strong performance budget pricing That combination is rare. Overall, Teriaq Intense feels like Lattafa trying to move into a more premium creative lane, and having someone like Quentin Bisch behind it makes that attempt feel legitimate. It’s bold, slightly polarizing, and much more interesting than the average clone-style release. If you like rich, spicy, slightly boozy fragrances and want something that feels more composed than typical Middle Eastern offerings, this one is worth trying.

This fragrance is projecting (streaming) really well.. I get noticed every time I wear it, and a little goes a long way. The plum note is my favorite part; it’s rich, slightly sweet, and beautifully blended without being overpowering. It feels luxurious and way more expensive than it actually is. The longevity is impressive too, I can still smell it on my clothes the next day, sometimes even longer.

This perfume was a blind buy and I had no regrets! Best pick ever now is my favorite Lattafa perfume, very obsessed with it. My other favorite is the Khamrah and its flanks, unbelievable fragrances with amazing projection and longevity. Teriaq Intense smells beautiful, different and unique. It was a delayed delivery but the package arrived in well condition and they sent me a perfume sample! Now I am more than happy!

Love at first sniff! Such a beautiful, sexy scent that lasts and lasts. This is the first fragrance that I have found that is truly unisex. It’s a clean amber, cinnamon, plumb liquor scent that isn’t overly sweet. First time using spritzed a couple sprays on wrist around 6 pm. Still getting scent wafts at 8 am the next morning. Can definitely see a man or woman wearing this.

Lattafa Teriaq Intense is a beautiful, well-balanced fragrance that feels soft and smooth from the first spray. The sweetness is gentle and comforting, not overpowering, and it wears effortlessly throughout the day. The bottle has a solid, satisfying weight and looks elegant and luxurious on display. The 3.4 oz size is generous, making it great value, and the packaging is well sealed with no leakage issues at all. Overall, it’s a gorgeous scent that feels thoughtfully made and absolutely worth a five-star rating. My best of the Lattafa collection so far.
