Latakia: Character
Latakia is a unisex fragrance by the Thai brand Tada Parfumeur, released in 2022.
This is a rich oriental fragrance in parfum extract concentration, built on the contrast between warm sweetness, dry herbaceous facets, and a deep tobacco accord.
The name Latakia immediately sets a serious, atmospheric tone: the composition does not aim to be sheer or weightless.
It is created for those who love enveloping fragrances with character, a noticeable presence, and a slow, expressive development.
Development on Skin
In the first few minutes, Latakia feels dense and soft: a honeyed facet merges with fruity dryness, while balsamic notes add resinous warmth.
Gradually, lavender refreshes this richness, introducing an herbaceous, slightly cool nuance.
As it develops, tobacco is especially beautiful: neither sharp nor ashy, but velvety, spicy-dry, and surrounded by honey and dried fruits.
Thanks to this transition, the fragrance balances sweet, green, woody, fruity, and balsamic facets while retaining a cohesive oriental character.
Sillage and Application
Latakia has a very strong sillage, so it is best to apply the extract sparingly: start with one spray on the skin and give it time to unfold.
On clothing, the fragrance can last particularly long and feel even more expansive, so one light spray on a scarf or outer layer is usually enough.
This rich composition is best suited to cool weather, evening walks, intimate gatherings, and moments when you crave olfactory comfort.
In a warm room or office, it is worth reducing the dosage: this way, the honeyed tobacco trail will remain beautiful and comfortable for those around you.
Who Will Enjoy This Fragrance
Latakia will suit both women and men who appreciate warm tobacco fragrances without excessive straightforwardness.
It smells confident, with a slightly vintage mood, yet remains modern thanks to its herbaceous lavender and fruity nuances.
If you would like to explore a similar style further, take a look at Serge Lutens Chergui.
Yet Latakia is especially interesting for its own balance of honeyed softness, dried-fruit depth, and tobacco-balsamic warmth.
