Art Of Arabia III Perfume 100ml EDP Lattafa Pride

Art Of Arabia III is the third and arguably the richest chapter in the Art Of Arabia trilogy from Lattafa Pride, the premium line where the house pours its most ambitious ideas. This 100ml Eau de Parfum is a deep, resinous amber built around dates, Tabac and sacred incense, a composition that feels like stepping into an old souk at dusk when the air is thick with smoke and sweetness. It is unisex in the truest sense, carrying enough darkness for those who love brooding orientals and enough vanilla warmth to charm anyone within reach.

The Scent Journey

The Opening

The first spray lifts with olibanum, that ancient frankincense note that smells of resin, peel and cool stone. Davana threads through it with its strange, boozy apricot character, while bergamot adds a brief flash of brightness. The effect is ceremonial rather than fresh, an opening that announces something serious is on its way.

The Heart

The heart is where Art Of Arabia III earns its name. Sticky, caramel-rich dates meld with a smooth Tabac accord, honeyed and slightly smoky, never harsh. Sandalwood gives the blend a creamy backbone and a surprising sliver of tuberose adds a heady floral glow that keeps the density from becoming flat. It is opulent, sweet and softly smoky all at once.

The Dry Down

Hours in, the base settles into myrrh and labdanum, two resins that smell of warmth, leather and antiquity. Vanilla and tonka bean wrap them in a plush gourmand blanket while patchouli keeps a dark, earthy edge underneath. The finish hums close to the skin well into the next day.

Fragrance Notes

• Top notes: Olibanum, Davana, Bergamot
• Heart notes: Dates, Tabac, Sandalwood, Tuberose
• Base notes: Myrrh, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Labdanum, Patchouli

Longevity and Performance

This is a dense, resin-heavy Eau de Parfum and it performs like one. Expect eight to ten hours of presence with a warm, noticeable trail for the first three or four. Two or three sprays are plenty. On clothing and scarves it can still be detected the following evening, so apply with a light hand if you are heading somewhere close-quartered.

When to Wear It

Suited to autumn and winter above all, when cold air gives the resins and dates room to bloom. It is a natural choice for evenings, celebrations, dinners and any occasion where you want to leave an impression rather than blend in. On a freezing December night it feels almost tailor-made.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it very sweet?

It is sweet, but the incense, myrrh and patchouli keep it balanced. Think honeyed and smoky rather than sugary.

How many sprays do I need?

Two or three. It is potent, so start light and build if you want more presence.

Do I need to have tried the earlier Art Of Arabia releases first?

Not at all. Each chapter stands alone, though III is widely considered the deepest of the three.
