{"product_id":"raghba-perfume-100ml-edp-lattafa","title":"Raghba Perfume 100ml EDP Lattafa","description":"\u003cp\u003eRaghba is a genuine legend. Launched in 2014 and still selling by the pallet-load more than a decade later, this sweet vanilla-oud is one of the fragrances that introduced the world to Lattafa. The recipe is disarmingly simple, sugared vanilla poured over smoky oud and incense, yet the result is so comforting and so distinctive that Raghba has become a rite of passage for anyone exploring Middle Eastern perfumery. Its name means desire in Arabic, and one wearing explains why it earned it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Scent Journey\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Opening\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaghba opens with an unapologetic wave of sweetness. A sugared, almost caramelised accord glows immediately on the skin, warm and inviting rather than sticky. Within minutes you can feel the darker undercurrent stirring beneath, promising that this is no simple dessert scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Heart\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart introduces incense, wispy and gently smoky, curling through the sweetness like fragrant smoke drifting through a souk. This is the stage that gives Raghba its unmistakable character, a meeting point between cosy gourmand warmth and contemplative oriental depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Dry Down\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base is where everything comes together. Creamy vanilla and smooth sandalwood settle in first, then a polished, non-challenging oud accord anchors the whole composition with woody, faintly leathery weight. Musk rounds off the edges, and the finished effect, sweet smoke over dark wood, lasts remarkably long on skin and seemingly forever on clothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFragrance Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sugared Accord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeart notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Incense\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vanilla, Oud, Sandalwood, Musk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLongevity and Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaghba is famous for its stamina. Eight to ten hours on skin is normal, and jumpers and scarves will still smell of it days later. Projection is strong for the first few hours, so a measured two or three sprays is plenty. Few fragrances at any price deliver this much presence per pound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen to Wear It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuited to autumn and winter above all, when the vanilla and smoke feel like a warm coat against cold air. It is a natural evening scent, wonderful for gatherings, celebrations and cosy nights, and a favourite during the festive season. In summer heat it can turn heavy, so keep it for cooler days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRaghba Within the Lattafa Family\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaghba is the ancestor of Lattafa's modern sweet ouds.
