Teriaq Intense by Lattafa is the boozy plum masterpiece composed by Quentin Bisch, the celebrated Givaudan perfumer. Saffron and bergamot pour into dark plum liquor and cinnamon over a glowing amber base, spicy, sweet and unapologetically luxurious. Many collectors rank it among the finest releases the house has ever made.
The Scent Journey
The Opening: Teriaq Intense opens with golden saffron and crisp bergamot, a bright, slightly metallic sparkle that immediately signals something expensive is happening.
The Heart: The middle is the star: dark plum liquor, rich and liqueur-like, wrapped in warm cinnamon. The fruit is boozy and smooth rather than jammy, indulgent with real polish.
The Dry Down: The base settles into resinous benzoin, golden amber and creamy tonka bean, a balsamic, softly sweet warmth that hums on the skin deep into the next day.
Fragrance Notes
Top notes: Saffron, Bergamot

Longevity and Performance
Exceptional. Expect 10 or more hours on skin with strong projection through the evening, and it survives on clothing until the wash. This is one of the best performing bottles in the entire catalogue.
When to Wear It
Suited to autumn and winter, and built for evenings, date nights and special occasions where its richness can breathe. Cold air is where the plum and amber glow brightest.
Teriaq Intense Within the Lattafa Family
Where Khamrah is the bold spiced-vanilla crowd pleaser, Teriaq Intense is the tailored, grown-up take on boozy sweetness, smoother, deeper and more refined. Fans of intensity should also try Asad Elixir, and everything else is in our full collection.
