Lattafa is on a roll — and two of the newest releases turning heads are Asad Elixir and Yara Elixir. If you’ve already smelled the originals (or you’ve seen them everywhere online), you’re probably asking one thing:

Are the Elixir versions actually better… or just hype?

Below is a practical UK-focused breakdown of what each one smells like, how long they last, and who should buy which.


Quick verdict

  • Choose Asad Elixir if you want a bold, confident, “night-out” vibe and love strong performance.
  • Choose Yara Elixir if you want sweet, feminine-leaning comfort with a crowd-pleasing, easy-to-wear profile.

Lattafa Asad Elixir: what it smells like

Asad Elixir keeps the “power” DNA people love about Asad, but it’s typically experienced as deeper, smoother, and more intense than the original. Think: warm spice, darker sweetness, and a richer dry-down that feels more “evening-ready.”

Asad Elixir vibe

  • Best for: nights out, cold weather, date nights, statement scent
  • Style: bold, confident, attention-grabbing

Asad Elixir performance (real-world expectation)

In the “Elixir” category, most buyers want one thing: longevity. Expect Asad Elixir to lean into that — strong projection early on, then a lingering trail that stays close but noticeable.

Who should skip it? If you prefer light, fresh, office-safe scents, Asad Elixir may feel too intense.

Lattafa Yara Elixir: what it smells like

Yara Elixir is built for people who love sweet, pretty scents — but want something that feels a little more “grown” and lasting than a typical airy gourmand. If you like the Yara family, Elixir usually reads as richer, smoother, and more dessert-like with a cozy vibe.
