Lattafa Mayar Cherry Intense Eau de Parfum
A sweet, gourmand cherry scent with strawberry and bergamot over cherry jam, cacao, vanilla, amber and patchouli. Rich and dessert-like.
Lattafa Mayar Cherry Intense Eau de Parfum takes the Mayar name in a sweeter, more gourmand direction, built around a cherry-cacao heart rather than the original's lighter fruity florals.
What does Mayar Cherry Intense smell like?
The opening combines strawberry and bergamot for a bright, fruity start, with the citrus keeping things from feeling too sugary too soon. The heart is where the fragrance earns its name, pairing cherry jam with cacao for a rich, slightly boozy, dessert-like character. The base of vanilla, amber and patchouli rounds it all out with a warm, comforting finish that lingers well after the cherry has faded.
- Top notes: Strawberry, Bergamot
- Heart notes: Cherry Jam, Cacao
- Base notes: Vanilla, Amber, Patchouli
Performance and when to wear it
Mayar Cherry Intense is typically moderate to long-lasting on skin, with the vanilla-amber-patchouli base carrying it well past the fruity opening. Some wearers find the very first minutes slightly sharp or medicinal before it settles into the sweeter cherry-cacao character, so it's worth giving it time on skin. It suits cooler weather and evening wear, where its sweetness feels indulgent rather than out of place.
Who is it for?
This is a strong pick for anyone who loves sweet, gourmand fragrances with real cherry and chocolate character rather than a generic fruity-sweet blend. It's unisex and works well for wearers who enjoyed the original Mayar but want something richer and more dessert-forward.
