Habik Men is one of Lattafa's newest masculine releases, arriving in 2025 as the suave counterpart to Habik Women. It is a spicy aromatic composition with a seductive streak: peppered cardamom and bergamot up top, a lavender and cinnamon heart, and a plush base of tonka bean, sandalwood and amberwood. Smooth, warm and impeccably groomed, this 100ml eau de parfum is made for the man who wants to smell effortlessly magnetic.
The Scent Journey
The Opening
Habik opens with a confident crackle of black pepper and cardamom, freshened by bergamot and given an intriguing herbal twist by artemisia. It is a sharp, energising start with a distinctly premium feel, spicy without being harsh and fresh without being fleeting.
The Heart
The heart softens into classic masculine territory done beautifully. Lavender leads with its clean, aromatic elegance, warmed by a gentle pulse of cinnamon and steadied by sage. This middle stage has a groomed, tailored character, the fragrance equivalent of a perfectly pressed shirt.
The Dry Down
The base is where Habik seduces. Creamy tonka bean melts into sandalwood and glowing amberwood, while musk and a touch of patchouli give the finish depth and skin-like warmth. It dries down smooth and inviting, the kind of scent that works best at close range.

Longevity and Performance
Habik Men wears comfortably for seven to nine hours on skin, opening with moderate-to-strong projection before settling into a warm tonka and amberwood aura within arm's reach. It clings well to clothing, and a few sprays in the morning will still be whispering by evening. Three or four sprays are ideal.
When to Wear It
Suited to autumn and winter, when its spice and creamy woods feel richest, Habik also behaves well on mild spring days thanks to its fresh aromatic heart. It is a natural for date nights and evening plans, yet polished enough for the office. If you want one bottle to cover work, weekends and dinner reservations, this is a very safe pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Habik Men sweet?
Only gently. The tonka and amberwood bring a smooth creaminess, but spice, lavender and woods keep the overall character refined rather than sugary.
Is this office-friendly?
Yes. Its projection is confident but controlled, and the clean lavender heart makes it easy to wear around colleagues.
How does it differ from Habik Women?
Habik Men is spicier and woodier, while Habik Women leans softer and more floral. Together they make a lovely matching pair.
Does it need time to settle?
Like many rich tonka fragrances, it smooths out beautifully after the bottle has been open a few weeks, so early sharpness soon rounds off.
