Mayar Cherry Intense Perfume 100ml EDP by Lattafa takes the beloved Mayar name in a bold new direction, trading sparkling florals for a rich, jammy cherry gourmand. Ripe strawberry and bergamot open the show before a decadent heart of cherry jam and cocoa unfolds, all resting on a plush bed of vanilla, patchouli and amber. Presented in a striking 100ml bottle at Eau de Parfum concentration, it is a sweet-toothed statement scent at a wonderfully accessible price.
The Scent Journey
The Opening
The fragrance greets you with juicy strawberry, sweet and sun-ripened, brightened by a squeeze of bergamot. The citrus is a clever touch, cutting through the fruit with a gentle zing so the opening feels lively rather than heavy. Within minutes, the promise of the cherry heart begins to peek through, dark and inviting.
The Heart
The heart is the star of the show. A luscious cherry jam accord takes centre stage, thick, glossy and beautifully candied, entwined with a dusting of cocoa that adds bittersweet depth. The pairing smells like black forest gateau in perfume form, indulgent and romantic, with the cocoa keeping the jammy sweetness grounded and grown-up.
The Dry Down
As the hours pass, creamy vanilla rises to soften the fruit, while patchouli and amber provide a warm, softly earthy foundation. The cherry lingers as a sweet memory within the base rather than vanishing entirely, leaving a cosy, dessert-tinged trail that carries beautifully on cool air.

Longevity and Performance
Mayar Cherry Intense lives up to the intense in its name. Expect seven to nine hours on skin, with the vanilla-amber base persisting even longer on clothing. Projection is strong in the opening hours, casting a noticeable cherry-cocoa aura, before settling into a warm, sweet skin scent. Two or three sprays are all you need for a full day or evening.
When to Wear It
Suited to autumn and winter, when jammy cherry and cocoa feel richest and most inviting. It is a natural evening fragrance, wonderful for dinner dates, parties and nights out, yet gentle enough in moderation for cold-weather daytime wear. During summer, keep applications light or save it for air-conditioned evenings.
