Lattafa Art of Arabia II is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Art of Arabia II opens with Bergamot, Heliotrope, Pink Pepper, and Cardamom, and settles into a heart of Jasmine, Lavender, and Almond. Lattafa's Art of Arabia II carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a wildcard. Some reckon it's a creamy, sophisticated almond-oud masterpiece, whilst others will tell you it's a rancid, unwearable mess. Definitely not for the faint of heart, and absolutely not a safe blind buy. Patience is key, apparently, as it needs time to mature from 'fart spray' to acceptable.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its beast-mode performance and strong oud-forward profile make it too intense for an office setting. However, its unique and luxurious aroma could work for a sophisticated date night or a formal event, appealing to those seeking something out of the ordinary.

About

Art of Arabia II kicks off with a vibrant splash of heliotrope and bergamot, spiced up by pink pepper and cardamom. The heart reveals a curious blend of creamy almond with soothing lavender and delicate jasmine. As it dries, a rich, deep base of oud emerges, smoothed out by earthy guaiac wood, sandalwood, and a comforting whisper of vanilla. It's a complex journey from spicy freshness to a woody, nutty warmth.
