Lattafa Sheikh Al Shuyukh is an Eau de Parfum. Sheikh Al Shuyukh settles into a heart of Lavender, Rosemary, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Patchouli. Lattafa's Sheikh Al Shuyukh carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a medicinal kick that mellows into something genuinely unique. It’s an inexpensive niche-smelling gem, but don't blind buy it unless you live for herbal, earthy vibes and aren't afraid of opinions.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Summer Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its clean, aromatic profile makes it suitable for office wear, especially after the initial medicinal opening fades. While unique, its potentially divisive nature and lack of sweetness make it less ideal for dates or formal events where broader appeal is desired. It’s quite versatile for casual settings, particularly in cooler weather, but isn't built for high activity.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with an arresting blast of medicinal herbs, dominated by sharp rosemary and soothing lavender, quickly joined by the dry, green aspects of sage. Beneath this aromatic freshness, a subtle, earthy oud emerges, not the intense, animalic sort, but a toned-down, woody presence. The dry-down settles into a clean, damp vetiver and patchouli base, providing an almost metallic warmth with no sweetness, leaning into a natural, almost barbershop-like freshness.
