Lattafa Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe Edition Eau de Parfum Spray for Unisex, 3.4 Ounce

This is so beautiful! I got so many compliments wearing this!! It’s a lovely rose, saffron, caramel, patchouli, vanilla, amber, and ambroxan scent!! This is a dupe for Lancôme’s Oud Bouquet!! It’s so seductive and alluring! I highly recommend it!!

I got this based on the hype and WAO! This is the best value proposition within the fragrance industry. What do I mean by that? This is the best fragrance you can buy for what you get in terms of smell and quality versus the price you pay. It was delivered fast and well packed. I like almost all types of perfumes, from gourmands, citrusy one’s ,designers, niche etc …and this one is a hidden gem that is very affordable and a good one to have in my collection. This perfume, after the initial animalistic opening , becomes a beautiful creamy rose and very sweet caramel with a touch of Oud that is devine. Is very similar to the original Lancôme Oud Bouquet, the none reformulated version . Now this perfume is also a beast in longevity, silage and overall performance. I get minimum on skin 8hrs plus and days on clothes. Great price for the quality middle eastern juice. I still can’t believe how economical is for the niche quality it offers. Let it macerate after the initial sprays to appreciate its true beauty and be careful not to overspray cause is potent. Love it. Will definitely recommend.👍

If you love the smell of Incense Sticks and the smokiness after lighting one, this fragrance is for YOU.Straight out of the bottle, it reminds me of a blip of my childhood.Walking into an empty serene sanctuary, eagerly looking at the clock, and noticing I am part of the first family to arrive for "Wednesday night Bible study." This pain-staking hours long mandatory event was followed by a very aggressive prayer service at the alter/pulpit. Members of the congregation laid prostrate on the golden carpeted floor praying loudly. Hopeful. In it to win it. The louder, the better.For me, it was the optimal....NAP TIME. The lights were dim and the smell of incense wafting through the church lingered. The loud praying and wailing eventually became more of a mumble. I on the other hand was... OUT. Comfortable. Laying at the alter getting that deep highly coveted R.E.M sleep.Later, I was awoken and embarrassed since everyone else was sitting back in the pews and the lights were at full capacity waiting for me to finish up. My eyes were red with indentations on my face from my sleeve. Yawing and stretching. Oops. My bad. That incense did the trick.Sheikl Shuyukh (LUX Edition) by Lattafa very vividly brings up this memory for me. This fragrance is STRONG friends. I personally love strong statement fragrances so this is at least a PLUS. I definitely pick up on the Saffron and the woodiness upon spraying it. The Patchouli, Caramel and Vanilla bring a nice sweetness and warmness to this fragrance once it calms down a bit. I get a smokiness that smells like I have been standing near a wood chip bbq smoker on a hot summer day.The way this fragrance continues to develop on me doesn't really seem to do me any favors at the moment honestly. The Patchouli seems a bit overpowering at times. I have already tried mixing this fragrance with a vanilla body spray to see if that will help, and so far, that has been a FAIL. The smokiness of this fragrance is quite aggressive and I am uncertain of how to calm it down or how to make it have more..... BALANCE.I wore this fragrance out to the store really quickly and, I'm not sure I actually LIKE it as a perfume/cologne. As a bathroom spray, sure. As a air the house out spray, sure. I don't want to give up on this fragrance though. So.... let the maturation process BEGIN!!!! I will put this fragrance away in the dark for a few months, then I will revisit it. The maturation process has definitely helped with some fragrances I have purchased in the past. Some of these fragrances took some time to grow on me. I'm not sure if this one will do the same, but I'm hoping.The scent profile isn't terrible, but maturation will hopefully help and create balance. I give this Lattafa fragrance 4⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ STARS.

This scent is a powerhouse !!! If your into powdery iridescences , slight incensed & sweet sugary fragrances - this is that ! At first I wasn’t too impressed but after a couple sprays out of the atomizer I let it sit for a day or two tried it again and loved it ! The atomizer is great not too much is being used when u apply it which saves juice while giving u a great distribution and saving u money ! It’s definitely a more sophisticated elegant sexy and mysterious kind of muskiness . Super pretty but confident. This is a must have in your collection ! Again this is the LUXE EDITION !!! Ladies this is great for date night or solo date out on the town ! This is so sexy yet beautifully put together

As far as the perfume is concerned, it is a wonderful scent, lasts a long time and I would recommend purchasing if you can find a reputable seller. As far as this seller goes, a company called STEP by STEP, if I could give them a big fat zero rating, I would!! BUYERS: Do not purchase from STEP by STEP because this is a scam organization in my opinion. Now, I will provide you with STEP by STEP instructions on how NOT to be scammed by this company. Step 1 ( and the only necessary step): Find another verified, reputable seller and avoid purchasing from Step by Step!! I ordered Lattafa Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe Edition Eau de Parfum from Step by Step twice and did not receive the fragrance I ordered. Instead I received a fragrance called Sheikh Shuyukh Final Edition which smells terrible, like black pepper, alcohol and the scent lasts round 5-10 minutes then it's gone (thank God for that). I gave them the benefit of the doubt and figured perhaps it was an error and placed another order and the same thing happened...I was sent another bottle of alcohol and black pepper. Of course, they offer no refunds, exchanges or even corrections to their error. At this point, I knew this organization was not honorable or reputable and have shady business practices. I would go as far as to say they are thieves, knowingly scamming customers by taking their money and providing them with a far inferior product made of water, pepper and alcohol. I would say shame on them but obviously they have no shame. I did contact Amazon customer service and they were gracious enough to provide a refund for both orders. BTW, thank you Amazon for making this right, love your company and will remain a loyal customer but please do not give criminal businesses like STEP by STEP a platform to scam YOUR customers!!
