Lattafa Velvet Oud Sample
Try Velvet Oud at your own pace
Lattafa Velvet Oud is a perfume that we decant into glass spray vials of 2, 5 or 10 ml. Our data holds its name and its house, not its notes, and we leave it at that. A decant of 2, 5 or 10 ml lets you wear it on several days before you decide about a full bottle. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind.

On the skin
How it unfolds
-
An honest gap
Our record for Velvet Oud stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine.

Asking for this sample
The status of Velvet Oud is on request. That is an honest way of saying it is on our list but not yet in a vial. The form on this page is where you raise your hand. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.

About the decant
What you get is Velvet Oud in a glass spray vial, 2, 5 or 10 ml, decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Glass does not react with perfume, so what you smell is the perfume itself. Pick the small vial if you only want to know whether you like it, and a larger one if you want to live with it for a while.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
We have no tags that say when Lattafa Velvet Oud fits best, which leaves the choice to you. Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression.
Who it is for
Our record does not say for whom Lattafa Velvet Oud was made. If you already know the house, a decant lets you check whether this one fits next to what you own. It is for the careful chooser and for the curious one.
Why try Lattafa Velvet Oud as a sample first
You learn more from three wearings of Lattafa Velvet Oud than from thirty opinions about it. The decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Lattafa is not involved, and it is not an official brand sample.

Frequently asked
Is this the same perfume as the full bottle?
Yes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Lattafa Velvet Oud and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Lattafa Velvet Oud, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
How should I keep the vial?
Closed, upright if possible, and away from heat and direct sunlight, the same way you would keep a full bottle. That keeps Velvet Oud as it was when we filled it.

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
