His Confession
His Confession by Lattafa is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2024 in the budget price tier. It opens with cinnamon, lavender and mandarin, moves into iris, benzoin and cypress and dries down to vanilla, tonka bean, amber, cedarwood, incense and patchouli. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
Heart
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
- Cypress Cool, green, resinous conifer. Sharp and clean.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
