The Asad Bourbon Gift Set brings together everything a fan of Lattafa's celebrated lion could ask for in one handsome presentation box. Inside you will find the full 100ml Eau de Parfum, a 12ml travel spray for topping up on the move, and a matching shower gel that lets you layer the scent from the very start of your routine. Asad Bourbon takes the swagger of the original Asad and pours it over a warm, liquor-tinged accord of vanilla bourbon, cacao and amber, creating a rich evening fragrance that feels far more expensive than it is. Whether you are treating yourself or hunting for a gift that will genuinely impress, this three-piece set is a superb way to own one of Lattafa's most talked-about modern releases.
The Scent Journey
The Opening
Asad Bourbon announces itself with a lively flourish of pink pepper and mirabelle plum, the fruit adding a juicy, slightly boozy sweetness that sets the tone for what follows. A ribbon of lavender threads through the opening, lending a smart aromatic edge that keeps the first minutes fresh rather than syrupy. It is a confident start, spicy and inviting in equal measure.
The Heart
As the spice settles, the heart reveals a decadent blend of cacao and davana. The cacao brings a dry, dark chocolate richness while davana contributes its signature apricot-like, faintly rum-soaked character. A pinch of nutmeg warms the whole accord, giving the middle phase the feel of a dimly lit lounge, all polished wood and good conversation.
The Dry Down
The base is where the bourbon truly earns its name. Vanilla bourbon settles in alongside golden amber, sweet and enveloping without ever tipping into dessert territory. Earthy vetiver anchors the sweetness, adding a masculine, grounded finish that lingers on skin and clothing for hours after application.

Longevity and Performance
Asad Bourbon is a strong performer by any standard. Expect eight hours or more on skin, with excellent projection in the first few hours before it settles into a warm, close aura. Using the shower gel first noticeably extends the wear, and the 12ml spray means you can refresh the scent wherever the evening takes you. Two to three sprays are plenty.
When to Wear It
Suited to autumn and winter, Asad Bourbon shines on cold evenings, date nights and celebrations where you want to be noticed. The boozy vanilla warmth feels made for overcoats and candlelight, though the aromatic opening keeps it wearable at smart daytime events too. Save it for cooler months and it will reward you generously.
Asad Bourbon Gift Set Within the Lattafa Family
This set is built around the standalone Asad Bourbon 100ml Eau de Parfum, the richer, sweeter sibling of the original Asad, which leans smokier and more incense-driven. If you are exploring the wider range, you will find every current Lattafa release in our full collection.
