Ramz Lattafa (Gold) Lattafa
by Lattafa Perfumes
Ramz Gold by Lattafa Perfumes presents a sweet, fruity, and woody floral scent with a distinct opening that some describe as synthetic, chemical, or even gasoline-like. Despite this initial clash, the dry down unfolds into a warm, floral, and powdery composition with vanilla, bergamot, and patchouli, creating a soft and inviting aura. The scent leans feminine in character but is widely considered unisex, especially in cooler seasons. Longevity is moderate to long on skin and excellent on clothing, with some reporting up to 10 hours of scent. Users frequently note its similarity to Byredo Black Saffron and Xerjoff Alexandria II, though any resemblance is imperfect—particularly in the tone and weight of the notes. A few describe a lingering synthetic ‘sweet gasoline’ effect, while others find the evolution from initial harshness to a smooth, balmy finish deeply appealing. It's best suited for evening, autumn, and winter wear, and works well when layered with other fragrances, especially fresh-fruity or vanilla-based notes.
Pros
- +The scent evolves beautifully into a warm, floral, and soft dry down that many find deeply pleasant and wearable.
- +Excellent longevity on clothing and moderate-to-long wear on skin, making it suitable for occasions and extended use.
- +Perceived as a strong and affordable dupe for more expensive high-end fragrances like Byredo Black Saffron or Xerjoff Alexandria II.
Cons
- −Harsh synthetic and chemical opening with a gasoline-like note that some find offensive or headache-inducing.
- −Frequent reports of poor performance in the initial phase, with some noting minimal scent after 1–3 hours.
- −Strongly biased towards a feminine profile despite claims of being unisex, which may not appeal to masculine-leaning scent preferences.
