Lattafa Liam Grey Eau de Parfum Spray for Unisex, 3.4 Ounce

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Liam turned out to be a total gem. It starts with a slightly sharp blast of cardamom and earthy black tea, almost like opening a tin of loose-leaf tea. It can feel a bit intense if you’re not expecting it, but give it a minute or two and it softens beautifully. Once it calms, the fragrance opens up into a creamy, powdery mix of iris, vanilla, sandalwood, and vetiver. There’s a comforting warmth to it, like slipping into a cashmere sweater with a cup of tea in hand. It leans clean and smooth rather than heavy and over-the-top - polished, grown-up, and surprisingly versatile. In terms of performance, it doesn’t dominate a room, but it stays with you. Expect around 6–8 hours of wear on skin, and longer on clothes, with a modest projection that keeps things personal yet noticeable. It won’t announce itself aggressively, which makes it great for work or cozy gatherings without overwhelming anyone. Some buyers compare it to much pricier niche scents, feeling it captures the same kind of elegant, laid-back sophistication for a fraction of the cost. It’s often described as unisex but leans slightly masculine - though many women enjoy its warm, soft-spice character. What to know before buying blind: - The opening can be a bit dusty or intense - don’t judge it too quickly. - It’s perfect for cooler weather or indoor environments where you want something warm but not sweet. - Projection is more subtle, but longevity is solid. - If you like spicy, tea-like scents with a soft, creamy dry down, this is a strong pick. Overall, Liam feels like a confident, luxurious signature scent without the price tag. It’s mature, balanced, and quietly compelling - perfect for someone who wants to smell great without shouting for attention.

This is a fragrance I will repurchase again and again!! When I first got it, I thought it was too masculine and I was regretting my purchase. I'm so glad I gave it a second chance though! I'm really loving atmospheric scents, and this is one of the best ones I've found. It gives "rainy day in a tea house surrounded by woods" vibe. It's moody and complex and it keeps me intrigued. It very much reminds me of art in the form of perfume. I would consider this a unisex fragrance. It's not sweet but there is hint of vanilla. I mostly get tea and woods from this, along with an earthy smell from the vetiver and patchouli. There's a slight powderiness, which I don't usually like, but it works exceptionally well with the woods and petrichor. I would peg this as a far more expensive fragrance than it is. The presentation was beyond impressive- perfect for gifting! The bottle is heavy, though the cap is plastic (if that matters to you). The atomizer sprays evenly and is slightly pressurized I think. My bottle is starting to leak a little around the atomizer, but the quality of the fragrance makes up for any packaging flaws.

Lattafa Liam Grey is one of the more well-known modern Lattafa releases because it targets a very specific niche DNA. The easiest and most accurate way to frame it is this: Liam Grey sits firmly in the BDK Gris Charnel lane. From the first spray, the inspiration is obvious. The opening revolves around cardamom, black tea, and fig, which gives it that cozy, slightly spicy, creamy feel that defines the Gris Charnel profile. It immediately comes across warm and smooth rather than bright or loud. As it develops, the fragrance becomes more structured. The mid introduces iris, vetiver, and labdanum, which add a slightly powdery, woody depth. This is where the scent starts feeling more niche-like. It has that calm, composed character instead of trying to project aggressively. The drydown is where the comfort factor really kicks in. You get sandalwood, vanilla, tonka, and patchouli, which create a creamy, slightly sweet base that lingers for hours. The overall effect is warm, smooth, and cozy without turning fully gourmand. In terms of similarity, most impressions land in the “clearly inspired but not identical” range. It captures the overall mood of Gris Charnel very well, but tends to be a bit sweeter and slightly less refined in the blend. The original feels smoother and more nuanced, but Liam Grey delivers the core vibe convincingly for a fraction of the price. Performance is generally solid. Most wearers report good longevity with moderate projection, which fits the scent profile well. This isn’t meant to be loud or beast mode. It’s more of a scent that sits in your aura rather than filling a room. Stylistically, this is not a gym or hot-weather fragrance. It works best in: - fall and winter - rainy days - cozy indoor settings - relaxed evenings - casual date nights It leans unisex but slightly mature, especially compared to louder Middle Eastern releases. One important thing with Liam Grey is expectation management. This DNA isn’t mass-appeal fresh or ultra-sweet designer territory. It’s more of a calm, slightly introspective scent profile. If you don’t already like the Gris Charnel style, this won’t convert you. Overall, Liam Grey works because it stays true to the assignment. It delivers the creamy tea, fig, and sandalwood warmth that makes Gris Charnel appealing while keeping the price extremely accessible. It doesn’t replace the original in refinement, but as an affordable entry into that niche scent profile, it makes a lot of sense.

Presentation: The packaging surprised me in a good way. It feels more premium than expected, and the bottle looks clean and classy with a silver cap, “Lattafa” engraving, and a silver “LIAM” plaque on the front. Scent: Opens with black tea, cardamom, and fig for a fresh, slightly spicy sweet “tea and creamy woods” vibe. It quickly reminded me of BDK Gris Charnel with that cozy, refined, airy spicy feel. It smooths out with iris and vetiver, then dries down warm with sandalwood, vanilla, tonka, and a touch of patchouli. Performance: About 4 to 7 hours on skin and 7 to 8 hours on clothes. Moderate projection for the first couple of hours, then it wears closer. Pros: Smells refined for the price, great for cooler weather, and scratches the Gris Charnel itch without niche pricing. The tea and fig opening helps it stand out from basic fresh scents. Cons: Not a safe blind buy. If you dislike tea notes, fig, or soft spicy scents, it may not be for you. Also becomes more close wearing as it dries down. Best for: Fall, winter, spring, and indoor use with A C. Overall, a great pickup if you like fresh but cozy scents. Sample first if you are unsure about tea

I bought this from reading the reviews & I have never smelled the OG this is compared to, so I don't know if they smell similar. I do like it but it doesn't project as some reviewers said, it smells nice it just didn't project or last more than a couple of hours & became a skin scent I could barely smell it 4 hours later. I would suggest you over spray & take it with you to respray later on.

Dries down to a cozy vanilla sandalwood with a hint of green fig, lasts 8-10 hrs. Moderate to intimate scent intensity as it dries down over time. The liquid is a nice greyish green and the bottle was made of glass except for the cap. First few sprays could be sharp but over time it mellows out.

Wow, wow, wow. If you are intrigued, then just buy it. Lol Seriously, this smells like your dressed in a dark academia vibe walking through the misty autumn fog to the local bookstore where you meet with your lifelong friend to discuss philosophy. This fragrance smells sophisticated yet cozy at the same time. The tea note is so well balanced it doesn't overwhelm and the vanilla has a warm tone with a wisp of spice to it. I think this is unisex but could lean more masculine. However, I mix it with Athena by Maison Alhambra and it is divine. So this fragrance could stand on its own or easily be mixed to make it more masculine or feminine. I can't get over how expensive this fragrance smells but at such a low cost. It is definitely one of the best middle eastern fragrance I own.

I had saw all the reviews about this. Some were good- some were bad. So I decided to pull the trigger. And I am so glad I did. When I first sprayed it I did not like it at all! It smelled like rotted plant roots and cardamom. Like you boiled them on the stove. I was unhappy and I was going to gift it. However, after the dry down..I fell head over heels! Then I went and started blending it with vanilla's and "milk" from Bath & body. Out of This World cozy! I do believe this will be a permanent staple in my collection. Please just give it time to dry down and if you think it is too masculine mix it! I mean I'm going to be using this in my bed.. on my bath towel..my sweaters..it's going to be beautiful in the Autumn and in the winter it smells foggy.. it smells grey.. it smells cozy.. it smells like an overcast. If you are familiar with Victorinix "first snow" it's like it's sister with a degree and experience. They would blend perfectly as well.. but beware.. you will probably go into a deep sleep LOL

Was a big fan of Lattafa Khamrah when I tried it, easy addition to the fragrance collection. I was blown away by how complex and luxurious it was paired with an unbelievable price point. So I thought I'd give a few other Lattafa products a try in that price point. No, I don't really know that much about fragrances, but I saw some videos saying this is sort of like a dupe of BDK's Gris Charnel. Haven't smelled that so can't compare, but I really did like this fragrance. It sort of felt basic when I first tried it, but it's actually grown on me over time. If you've tried Khamrah, this is definitely in that ballpark of woodsy, musky, spicy, rich, but on a much more toned down level. This one plays to me like a more reliable everyday wear for daytime or work, or casual nights out. Khamrah just has that little bit extra elevation to it that gives it a luxurious aspect. This is a solid fragrance though with a woodsy sort of spicy tone, with cardamom and vetiver. I'm a male but I think this could work well as a unisex fragrance and for the price point, I think this is definitely great value for that price. I'd purchase this again.

Perfume cálido, delicioso y embriagado que no empalaga, el dulzor del higo mezclado con el té negro y el iris da un aroma increíble.

My bf knows it’s my favourite one and wears it everyday, very unisex, long lasting and worth it im def buying another one. Spicy, masculine and overall good

Mostly masculine …

Lo trovo particolare poiché è un misto tra un balsamico e un talcato, foglie di the e una spolverata di iris. Non so definirlo ma è buonissimo. Sono certa che con l' autunno e i primi freddi darà il meglio di sé. Al momento lo lascio maturare. Un unisex più che consigliato.
