Pineapple meets black pepper, coffee and amber beneath. A men's fragrance with presence.

Pineapple and pepper at the start

Asad opens with an unusual pairing. Pineapple brings a juicy, lightly tart sweetness, and black pepper sets a dry heat against it at once.

Tobacco stands beside them as a third note and brings a warm, faintly honeyed depth. The first minutes are the most striking part of the development and give the fragrance its character.

Coffee, patchouli and iris

Coffee takes over at the heart. It smells dark and roasted, with a bitter edge that balances the pineapple from above.

Patchouli adds earth and resin, and iris lays a powdery, lightly rooty note over them. In this phase Asad turns darker and calmer.

Amber, vanilla and resins

The base gathers amber, vanilla, woods, benzoin and labdanum. Amber and benzoin give resinous warmth, labdanum a leathery, almost animalic depth.

Vanilla rounds it off with creamy sweetness while the woods set dryness against it. What remains is a warm, sweet resinous ground tone that works on the skin for hours.

The right setting

Asad works all year, with an emphasis on autumn and winter. Cool air carries coffee and amber particularly well.

It suits the evening, invitations and occasions where presence is wanted. At the office and in heat, use it sparingly.

Lattafa Perfumes and Asad

Lattafa Perfumes was founded in Dubai in 1980 and is among the best known houses in the region. Asad is one of the best selling men's fragrances in the range.

The name means lion in Arabic, and the bottle picks that up with a sculpted lion head on the cap. It holds 100 ml.

Why pineapple and coffee work together

On paper this is an odd pairing. Pineapple belongs in bright summer fragrances, coffee in dark gourmands. In Asad both work, because the fruit is not used as freshness but as sweetness with acidity.

The black pepper in the opening prepares the transition. It takes the lightness out of the pineapple and pushes it in a spicy direction where the coffee can pick it up later. What first reads as a break is in fact a cleanly built path.

Asad is for anyone looking for presence. It projects widely and lasts long; the combination of amber, benzoin and labdanum in particular makes it easy to notice in a room. Testing it for the first time, give it two hours, as only then does the resinous base show its full width.

On clothing Asad stays particularly long and is often still noticeable the following day. On skin it projects widely, so little material is enough for most occasions. For more presence, add the wrist as well.

How to wear it

It projects widely, so go sparingly. Neck and wrist are enough for most occasions.

Asad holds particularly long on clothing. Store the bottle away from light at room temperature so amber and labdanum keep their depth.
