About
Habik For Men by Lattafa Perfumes is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for men. This is a new fragrance. Habik For Men was launched in 2025. Top notes are Cardamom, Pepper, Artemisia and Bergamot; middle notes are Lavender, Cinnamon and Sage; base notes are Tonka Bean, Sandalwood, Amberwood, Musk and Patchouli. Confident. Sophisticated. Unforgettable. Habik for Men is a bold olfactory journey that begins with the spicy intensity of cardamom and pepper, brightened by fresh bergamot and the herbal sharpness of artemisia. As the fragrance unfolds, a heart of calming lavender and aromatic sage is enriched by the warmth of cinnamon. The base settles into a powerful, masculine blend of sandalwood, patchouli, tonka bean, amberwood, and musk—leaving a deep, lasting impression.Fragrance NotesTop: Cardamom, Pepper, Artemisia, BergamotHeart: Sage, Lavender, CinnamonBase: Sandalwood, Patchouli, Tonka Bean, Amberwood, Musk

Suede. Spices. Incense. Waking up in Moda, crossing the Bosphorus and a balmy night in Karaköy. An ambery, woody, spicy fragrance. A fresh aromatic head, with notes of bergamot, cardamom, red thyme. A woody, aromatic heart, with lavender absolute, Egyptian geranium essence, patchouli heart and sweet myrrh (opoponax) essence. And basenotes of sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean, amber and musks” — press release of the brand.
