Lattafa The Kingdom đź‘‘ > JPG Le Male Elixir

So, I recently got my hands on a decant of Lattafa Kingdom, and wow, it blew me away! The opening has this slight minty vibe, followed by a rich honey sweetness, a hint of tobacco, and that smooth tonka base. I loved it so much that I thought, “If the clone is this good, the OG Le Male Elixir must be mind-blowing, right?” Well... not quite.

When I tried Le Male Elixir, it felt like something was missing. The sweetness I loved in Kingdom was toned down, and the tobacco was turned up—definitely not my thing. But here’s where it got interesting: the performance. I sprayed the OG on my left hand and Kingdom on my right, and after 6-7 hours, Kingdom was still going strong, while the OG had pretty much faded. Not what I expected from the so-called “original.”

And here’s the kicker: in the air, there’s barely any difference between the two. Sure, if you stick your nose right up to your hand, you can tell Le Male Elixir is a bit more refined, but honestly, who’s doing that? At four times the price, it doesn’t make sense to me. I’ve been using 2 sprays of the Elixir and 3-4 sprays of Kingdom, and they blend so well that you wouldn’t even notice which is which.

TL;DR If you’re all about great scent, solid projection, and saving some cash, go for Lattafa Kingdom. It’s a win for your nose and your wallet. But if you’ve got money to burn, love fancy bottles (the mistake, I did), and don’t mind a heavier tobacco vibe, Le Male Elixir might be your jam. As for me, I learned my lesson. I’m sticking with Kingdom 👑, it’s proof you don’t need to break the bank to smell amazing!
