“I’m not sure how they’re able to make something smell so good for so little. I have fragrances that cost a lot more and don’t smell or perform the way Qaa’ed does. A pleasantly spicy and sweet fragrance that clings to your skin and clothes. Projection is great too! Definitely backup bottle worthy!”

“Qaa'ed is my 3rd Lattafa fragrance and I'm impressed with the Lattafa brand as much as the fragrances they produce and sell at really reasonable prices.My first encounter with Lattafa was their Velvet Oud which is actually more of a sophisticated and versatile leather fragrance rather than an Oud. This stuff is a very upscale leather for a night out or the office in anything but hot weather.Next up, I bought Raghba Wood Intense. The versatility here scores about a 3 out of 10 but I don't give a damn. I love this stuff. It smells like a roaring fire after a day of skiing or a campfire in fall. Only cold weather. Not for the office. Not everyone will love it. But I do! A super masculine beast mode performer for cold weather.Third, and my most recent Lattafa is Qaa'ed and it was love at first sniff. I'd put this right right up there with Bentley For Men Intense as far as my immediate reaction of love at first whiff. The two don't smell anything alike. It's just that they both hit me like a sledgehammer.....oh yeah.....I want more of that!Who doesn't like an opening with cinnamon and cardamom? The spices get balanced out in the mid with woods (cedar and sandalwood) plus saffron and old school carnation. Then the base arrives with sweet vanilla and amber balanced out with masculine Oud and leather. Unlike Raghba Wood Intense, Qaa'ed is not gonna offend many people. It can be used in any weather except high heat and a much wider range of situations like an office. Performance is very strong but not beast mode. But, that's what makes it far more versatile than Raghba Wood Intense so, that's a good thing here.What really stands out here is the cinnamon + cardamom opening , then the vanilla + oud + leather in the base. But there isn't really one dominant note here. It's blended really well for an overall effect rather than highlighting one or two notes. And that overall effect is a mildly sweet, spicy scent with masculine elements like wood and leather that is very well done. It's a very rich smelling blend. I guess this could be unisex but to me it leans more masculine and I don't think a lot of women would cozy up to the spices, oud, and leather. Some may, most won't. For that matter, a lot of younger guys who are used to sweet clubbing fragrances, blue fragrances, and crowd pleasing citrus stuff probably won't like this much either. This is probably for the 35 and older crowd, dressed up, and a night out. Even better!I'm really impressed with Lattafa. As far as I'm concerned, every fragrance I've bought from them has been a home run. This is an affordable niche house in my mind.”
