Lattafa Najdia is a warm, spicy unisex fragrance that opens on grapefruit and mandarin, moves into rose, cinnamon and spice, and dries down to amber, leather, patchouli and woods. It costs £14.99 for 100ml at Arabic Perfumery. The name is shared by several Lattafa bottles that smell quite different, including Oud Najdia and Najdia Intense, so this UK guide explains the original, how the others differ, and who should buy which.
Written by the Arabic Perfumery team from the product listing, published note lists and customer reviews, and last reviewed in November 2026. We sell Lattafa, so we have said who should look elsewhere. Wear-time comments are customer impressions, not laboratory tests, and we have not tested these bottles ourselves.
What does Lattafa Najdia smell like?
Najdia is fresh for a short while and then warm for the rest of the day. The opening is bright citrus, grapefruit and mandarin, and it is the only really fresh part of the scent.
The heart is rose wrapped in cinnamon and soft spice, the traditional Arabian side of the fragrance. The base is amber and smooth leather over earthy patchouli, with sandalwood and cedar listed by some retailers and a touch of oud in one note list. Rose over leather is an old pairing in Arabian perfumery, and Najdia is a budget-friendly way to try it.

Najdia vs Oud Najdia vs Najdia Intense
These are three different fragrances, and buying the wrong one will not get you a slightly different version of the same scent.
| Fragrance | What we can verify | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Lattafa Najdia | Grapefruit, mandarin, rose, cinnamon, amber, leather, patchouli | In stock, £14.99 |
| Lattafa Oud Najdia | Citrus and cedar on top, oud, cardamom, rosemary, cinnamon and lavender in the heart, patchouli, amber and musk in the base | Out of stock at the time of writing, £14.99 |
| Lattafa Najdia Intense | Our listing describes a clean, creamy woody with no rose, but we have not verified a full note list | Out of stock at the time of writing, £14.99 |
Oud Najdia is the spicier, woodier one, with a cardamom and lavender heart and an oud lean. If you are choosing between Najdia and an oud-led scent, our guides to Lattafa oud perfumes and oud versus musk will help. People often search for what Oud Najdia is a dupe of. We could not find a reliable source naming one designer scent that it copies, so we have not claimed one.
How long does Lattafa Najdia last?
We have not measured it. Wear time depends on your skin, the weather and the number of sprays, and the leather and amber base is what carries it through the day. Spray moisturised skin for the best chance of a long wear, and see our Lattafa performance table and tips for making Lattafa last longer.
Who should wear Lattafa Najdia?
Najdia suits people who like rose, spice and leather and want one scent that starts fresh and finishes warm. It is sold as unisex and works well in autumn and winter, and it is understated enough for the office.
Who should skip it
- If you dislike rose or leather, the heart and base will not suit you.
- If you want a scent that stays fresh and citrusy all day, the opening fades quickly into something warmer.
- If you want a sweet gourmand, try our Lattafa Khamrah review instead.

Buying guide: what to check before you buy
Najdia is £14.99 for 100ml, about 15p per ml, which makes it one of the lowest-risk ways to try a rose and leather scent.
- Make sure you are buying the original. Oud Najdia and Najdia Intense are different fragrances and are currently out of stock.
- Test it on skin and wait for the heart, because the citrus fades quickly and the rose, cinnamon and leather follow.
- It is sold as unisex, so choose on the notes, not the label.
- If you like warm, spicy scents, it makes a sensible first Lattafa.
