Home spray

Three 300 ml home sprays that take Dubai perfume scents and put them in the air of a room rather than on the skin. Two sprays in the middle of the living room and the atmosphere changes for hours — it is the quickest format for scenting a home.

The three products

• Badee Al Oud by Lattafa — woody and oriental, dense. It is the most requested Lattafa home spray, and the one that lingers longest in a ventilated room.
• Pure Musk by Lattafa — clean white musk, much more neutral. The right choice for a bedroom or a hallway, with no risk of saturation.
• Lovely by Al Rehab — soft floral, the lightest of the three. It suits small rooms and people who find oud too present.

Home spray or fabric spray: not the same thing

A home spray is designed for the air of the room: it is sprayed upwards, away from fabrics, and its scent fades within a few hours. A fabric spray is made to cling to the fibre of a garment and stay there. Using a home spray on light-coloured clothing can leave a mark; using a fabric spray as a room diffuser means wasting a lot of it.

Dosing correctly

Two to three sprays per medium-sized room, in the centre and high up. Beyond that, the scent does not last longer: it saturates. Ventilate briefly before reapplying, and do not spray near a flame, a candle or a hot appliance.

The other home formats are in the home fragrance collection.
