Mashrabya by Lattafa is sweet smoke done brilliantly. An apple shisha accord drifts over Tabac, cinnamon and dates before settling into caramel, vanilla and a curl of oud smoke. Named after the carved wooden screens of traditional Arab homes, it captures the warmth of a shisha lounge at dusk, cosy, mysterious and completely addictive.
The Scent Journey
The Opening: Mashrabya opens with its signature apple shisha accord, sweet, fruity and gently smoky from the very first second, sharpened by a twist of pink pepper. It is unusual, inviting and instantly memorable.
The Heart: The middle deepens into smooth Tabac, warm cinnamon and sticky dates. The smoke here is soft and rounded, closer to fragrant shisha clouds than harsh fire.
The Dry Down: The base wraps everything in caramel and vanilla with earthy patchouli and a final whisper of oud smoke, a sweet, smouldering finish that lingers for hours.

When to Wear It
Suited to autumn and winter evenings, nights out and cosy gatherings, anywhere its smoky-sweet character can glow. It is a scent with real personality, made for after dark rather than the morning commute.
