Yara — Yara by Lattafa – Sample Decant

Overview

Sweet, creamy, and instantly recognisable, Yara by Lattafa is the vanilla-gourmand that made the house a household name. It opens soft and powdery — orchid and heliotrope with a squeeze of tangerine — before settling into the tropical-fruit and gourmand heart it's known for.

The base is where it lives: vanilla, musk, and sandalwood, warm and creamy with real staying power. It's a comfort scent first and foremost, the kind people wear daily and buy again.

Yara is an original Lattafa composition rather than a take on any designer release, and it remains one of the most widely loved Middle Eastern fragrances released in the last decade.

Scent Profile

Yara sits in the sweet gourmand / vanilla / powdery oriental lane — soft and floral-powdery on the opening, fruity and sweet through the middle, then creamy vanilla for the long haul.

Try Before You Commit

Yara opens powdery and slightly floral, with tangerine keeping the first few minutes bright. The gourmand heart arrives quickly and turns it sweet and fruity, and the vanilla-sandalwood base takes over for the rest of the wear — creamy, warm, and long-lasting.
