Lattafa Badee Al Oud Inspired Oud

Flora Five's Lattafa Badee Al Oud inspired unisex oud is an alcohol-free, oil-based interpretation of the smoky, saffron-laced character of Lattafa Bade'e Al Oud. Golden saffron, nutmeg and a sliver of lavender flare up first, then agarwood and dark patchouli take command of the heart, and the same pair sinks into musk for a base that smoulders on — lasting roughly 6–8 hours on skin.

Lattafa Badee Al Oud inspired oud: fragrance notes

• Top: Saffron, Nutmeg, Lavender
• Heart: Agarwood (Oud), Patchouli
• Base: Agarwood (Oud), Patchouli, Musk

How it compares. Our oud captures the recognisable Bade'e Al Oud accord — saffron-dusted, faintly medicinal oud wrapped in earthy patchouli and warm musk. Because it's a concentrated oil with no alcohol, the opening is softer (no spray "blast"), it develops more slowly, sits closer to the skin, and lasts noticeably longer than an alcohol spray.

The oil is 100% alcohol-free, which makes it as suitable for the office as for a night out. Apply a single swipe to each wrist and one behind the ears, let your pulse warm the oud open over ten minutes, and steer clear of white cotton — dark resinous oils can shadow pale fabric.

Available as a roll-on in 3 ml, 6 ml and 12 ml. Free shipping on orders from ₹499 · Cash on Delivery available (₹50 COD fee) · 7-day exchange or store credit.

Frequently asked questions

What does Flora Five's Lattafa Badee Al Oud smell like?
Dark, spicy and unapologetically Arabian. Saffron and nutmeg give the opening a golden, slightly leathery bite; underneath sits a smoky oud-patchouli core that reads earthy and faintly medicinal in the best oriental tradition. Musk rounds the edges so the drydown feels warm and enveloping rather than harsh.

How long does it last?
This is the longest-wearing style we make: expect roughly 6–8 hours on skin, with a strong scent bubble for the first 3–4. Applied to clothing or a shemagh it can easily still be there the following evening, so a light hand goes a long way.

How is Flora Five's version different from the original Lattafa Bade'e Al Oud?
Bade'e Al Oud is an eau de parfum whose alcohol carrier throws the saffron-oud accord loudly for the first hour, then tapers. Our oil renders the same accord in slow motion — a gentler start, a deeper patchouli-musk drydown, longer wear, and zero alcohol on your skin.

Is this a good first oud?
Yes, with a caveat. The saffron and musk keep it smoother than a raw oud oil, so it's an approachable doorway into the genre — but it is still a bold, smoky oriental. Start with the 3 ml, wear one modest swipe, and see how you and the people around you take to it.
