Lattafa Give Me Gourmand – Berry on Top eau de parfum 75 ml is a captivating unisex fragrance from the floral-fruity gourmand family, launched in 2025 as part of the playful Give Me Gourmand collection. Created in the United Arab Emirates, this fragrance captures the irresistible sweetness of strawberries and dessert treats in a luxurious perfume experience.

Lattafa Give Me Gourmand – Berry on Top is an eau de parfum that will appeal to anyone who loves sweeter, "edible" fragrances with a fruity opening. The name itself hints that juicy berries take centre stage in the top notes, coming across as playful, uplifting and alluring. The fragrance gradually transitions into a softer, creamy gourmand character reminiscent of a dessert atmosphere, leaving a pleasant, warm trail behind you. Thanks to its balance, it is suitable for everyday wear, yet it also shines in the evening, when its sweeter character feels more seductive. If you are looking for a perfume that is modern, easy to wear and yet distinctive, this choice could fit beautifully into your collection. It is a fragrance that combines the fruity spark of berries with gourmand softness to feel enticing yet elegant.

Application

Apply the eau de parfum ideally to pulse points, where the fragrance develops best thanks to the warmth of the skin: wrists, neck, décolletage or behind the ears. With sweeter gourmand fragrances, it is worth starting with a smaller amount and adding more as needed, as the intensity can be more pronounced on warmer days. If you want a softer, "cleaner" effect, try one spray on the chest beneath your clothing – the fragrance will stay closer to the body and feel more discreet. For the evening or cooler weather, you can add a spray to a scarf or outer garment to make the trail last longer. Do not rub the perfume into the skin, as this can alter the development of the fragrance; instead, allow it to dry naturally. Moisturised skin – for example after a shower with an unscented body lotion – helps extend longevity. You will achieve the best results by applying sparingly and allowing the berry top note to naturally transition into the gourmand base.

Packaging

Give Me Gourmand is also a great choice as a gift, as Lattafa eau de parfums often make a strong first impression and have a "collectible" quality. The bottle is easy to use thanks to a spray mechanism that allows precise application without unnecessary waste. To preserve quality, I recommend storing the perfume away from direct sunlight, in a dry place at a stable room temperature. If you carry the perfume in a handbag or while travelling, it is worth protecting it from impacts and extreme temperatures. The box can serve not only for gifting, but also as protection during longer-term storage. The packaging is practical for everyday use and at the same time presentable enough if you wish to give the fragrance as a gift.

Composition

The exact composition and list of allergens may vary by batch, so always refer to the information on the packaging of the specific product. The perfume is intended for external use only; avoid contact with eyes and do not apply it to irritated or broken skin. If you have sensitive skin or a tendency to allergic reactions, first perform a patch test on a small area of skin. Eau de parfums are generally alcohol-based and flammable – keep them out of reach of children and away from sources of heat or open flame. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and rinse the skin with water. The most up-to-date and binding information on the composition can always be found on the bottle label and on the box.

The fragrance opens with a radiant and juicy combination of strawberry and crème Chantilly, delivering a fresh, uplifting and delectable introduction that instantly awakens the senses.

At its heart, a rich accord of strawberry jam, sugar and white flowers adds depth and a romantic, delicate floral lift that balances the gourmand sweetness with elegance.

The base settles into a smooth and soothing dry-down of vanilla and musk, leaving a creamy, velvety trail that feels indulgent yet refined. The balanced composition ensures a long-lasting, captivating scent that is both playful and sophisticated.

• Top notes: Strawberry, crème Chantilly
• Heart notes: Strawberry jam, sugar, white flowers

Additional information

This type of fragrance tends to be ideal for times when you want something cosy and sweet – it often shines in autumn, winter and the evening, but with a lighter application it can work year-round. The gourmand character is wonderful for moments when you want to come across as approachable, pleasant and "good enough to eat", without the fragrance feeling heavy. If you are looking for a perfume for a date, social events or simply for enjoyment at home, the fruity berry top note will add energy and a positive mood. Longevity and intensity may vary depending on skin type, hydration and environment, so I recommend trying the fragrance on a regular day to find your ideal number of sprays. It pairs well with unscented skincare to let the character of the perfume shine, and also with lightly vanilla or creamy body products if you want to enhance the gourmand effect even further. If you enjoy fruity-sweet fragrances, Give Me Gourmand will offer you a bold berry opening and a pleasantly warm, gourmand dry-down.

Berry on Top is ideal for spring and summer, for daytime wear, casual outings or whenever you are in the mood for a sweet, uplifting scent. Thanks to its unisex concept, both men and women can enjoy the delectable, dessert-inspired aroma, and the glass bottle – reminiscent of a strawberry dessert – makes it a charming addition to any fragrance collection.
