Which Should You Buy?
Lattafa's Habik is a polarising spicy bomb that punches above its weight. Some find it a strong, sophisticated, masculine scent, while others struggle with its initial harshness or chemical undertones. It needs maceration to truly shine, transforming into a smooth, warm fragrance that evokes the spirit of more expensive bottles, and will definitely get you noticed.
This one's a proper grown-up scent, polarising some with its classic barbershop vibe but adored by others for its sophisticated, masculine charm. A complex fougère that blends tradition with a refined touch, though its subtlety won't please those craving a powerhouse beast.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its bold and spicy nature, combined with moderate to strong projection, makes it less suited for a conservative office. It truly shines on a date night or formal event, where its sensual and mysterious profile can make a statement, but it can also be a versatile cooler weather casual scent. It's too heavy for sports.
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and subtle nature make it suitable for office and formal wear, where understated elegance is key. While some find its performance strong, many describe it as discreet, making it less ideal for casual or sporty settings where a more relaxed scent is often preferred.
