Ana Abiyedh Poudrée

Ana Abiyedh Poudrée, released by Lattafa Perfumes in 2023 for women, is a soft, powdery woody floral. Everyone describes it as woody and floral; about two thirds also call it gourmand, and a third musky.

It opens with a floral trio of jasmine, rose and orange blossom, clean and faintly sweet, with the orange blossom adding a soapy brightness. The heart is simply musk, which gives the powdery, cosmetic softness that the name promises and smooths the flowers into something velvety. The base is fuller than the opening suggests: vanilla and tonka bean add a warm, slightly almond-like sweetness, cedar and vetiver a dry, earthy wood and patchouli a touch of depth.

Most wearers report moderate longevity, with about a third finding it long lasting; the trail is moderate, sometimes intimate. It is voted equally for spring and autumn, and mostly for daytime. It suits office days and quiet occasions, for anyone who likes a powdery, comfortable floral that never becomes loud.
