Lattafa Habik For Women — The Dylan Purple Dupe, Including the Bit Nobody Admits
Pear · Bergamot · Lily of the Valley · Jasmine · Freesia · Musk · Amber · Oakmoss — 100ml Eau de Parfum, 100% authentic, dispatched from the UK.
Habik For Women smells like the best version of clean. Cold, juicy pear. A squeeze of bergamot. Then a soft, dewy bouquet of lily of the valley, freesia and jasmine — the sort of white florals that smell like a garden at seven in the morning rather than a perfume counter. It is bright, it is fresh, and it smells considerably more expensive than it is.
It is also, note for note, a Versace Pour Femme Dylan Purple dupe. Habik For Women by Lattafa Perfumes arrived in 2025 at a fraction of the Versace’s price, and we’ll show you the working below.
Then we’re going to tell you something about the longevity that every other shop will bury — and that, once you understand it, is actually the best reason to buy this bottle.

How the Lattafa Habik For Women Perfume Wears
Top — Pear, Bergamot. The pear is the whole opening and it’s the good kind: crisp, watery, just-bitten, not a syrupy sweet-shop pear. Bergamot sits underneath and keeps it sparkling. It’s an instantly likeable start — the kind of scent where someone leans in and says “what is that?”
Heart — Lily of the Valley, Jasmine, Freesia. Then it flowers, gently. Lily of the valley brings that green, dewy, slightly soapy freshness; freesia adds a peppery brightness; jasmine gives it a soft white glow. This is a clean, luminous, spring-morning heart. It doesn’t shout and it isn’t trying to.
Base — Musk, Amber, Oakmoss. And here’s where it gets more interesting than it has any right to be. Soft musk and warm amber do the expected job. But oakmoss — green, mossy, faintly bitter — runs underneath the whole thing and gives it a grip that clean fruity florals usually lack. Some wearers register it as a slightly sharp, almost spicy note. It’s what stops this being just another pretty shampoo scent.
Performance, Measured
Longevity varies more on this one than on most. If your skin eats fresh fragrances, it will eat this one — read the honest section below before you buy.
The Dylan Purple Comparison — With the Actual Maths
Search “lattafa habik for women dupe of” or “habik for women lattafa dupe of” and you’ll mostly get hand-waving. We’re not going to do that. Look up Dylan Purple’s notes and they seem unrelated: pomarose, mahonial, ambroxan, sylkolide, Iso E Super. That’s because Versace built it out of captive molecules with trade names. Translate them and the picture changes completely.
| Habik For Women | Versace Dylan Purple | |
|---|---|---|
| Top | Pear, bergamot ✓ identical | Pear, bergamot, bitter orange |
| Heart | Lily of the valley, jasmine, freesia | Freesia, pomarose, mahonial — which is the lily of the valley note |
| Base | Musk, amber, oakmoss | Sylkolide (a musk), ambroxan (amber), cedar, Iso E Super |
| Available? | In stock — £19.99 | In stock — at many times the price |
✓ Bergamot
✓ Freesia
✓ Lily of the Valley
✓ Musk
✓ Amber
✕ Bitter orange — missing
✕ Pomarose — missing
✕ Cedar — missing
✕ Iso E Super — missing
Three of the four gaps are Versace captives nobody else can buy. The structure — juicy pear top, clean white floral heart, amber-musk base — is identical.
Whether that’s a downgrade is a matter of taste. Dylan Purple is smoother. Habik is greener and has a bit more backbone. We rather like it. See how the rest of the Lattafa range compares to its designer originals →
Habik For Women or Habik For Men? Check Before You Order.
Lattafa released two fragrances called Habik in 2025, and at least one major retailer has managed to publish the men’s notes on the women’s page. They are completely unrelated:
| Habik For Women (this one) | Habik For Men | |
|---|---|---|
| Notes | Pear, bergamot / lily of the valley, jasmine, freesia / musk, amber, oakmoss | Cardamom, pepper, artemisia, bergamot / lavender, cinnamon, sage / tonka, sandalwood, patchouli, musk, amberwood |
| Smells like | Fresh, fruity, floral — pear and clean white flowers | Spicy, herbal, woody, warm — a grown-up barbershop |
| Comparable to | Versace Dylan Purple | JPG Le Mâle Essence de Parfum |
Completely different fragrances sharing a name. If pear and clean florals is what brought you here, you’re in the right place. If you wanted cardamom and lavender, here is Lattafa Habik For Men →
Now, Honestly: The Longevity
We’re going to be straight with you, because the reviews are split and you deserve to know why.
Habik For Women does not have great longevity. Some women get ten hours and a lovely soft skin-scent. Others find it gone in a few hours and describe it, not unfairly, as a very good body mist in a pretty bottle. It is heavily skin-dependent, and if your skin eats fresh fragrances, it will eat this one.
Here is what nobody will tell you: Versace Dylan Purple has exactly the same problem.
Read its reviews — from people who love it. One wearer says its performance is that of an average EDT despite the EDP price, and that she sprays it six times to get what she wants. Another simply begs Versace to make it last longer. A third adores it and admits it fades far too quickly. Even the retailers concede three to four hours per application.
So both fragrances fade. Neither one lasts. One of them costs a great deal more than the other.
One buyer summed it up perfectly. She tested the Versace, fell in love with it, heard the performance wasn’t good — and bought Habik instead. Her reasoning: if she was going to be respraying all day regardless, she’d rather not be spraying her money into the air.
And this is the part that seals it: a woman who owns both bottles says the Lattafa actually performs better.
Yes, It Smells Like Very Good Shampoo. That’s the Point.
You’ll see this said as a criticism: it smells like nice shampoo. Like clean body wash. Like soap.
It absolutely does — and if you’ve been searching for a “clean girl” fragrance, that sentence should have made you reach for your card. This is a freshly-washed, freshly-laundered, competent-adult sort of smell. It’s the scent of someone who has their life together. It works at a desk, on a school run, at a wedding, on a first date, in July and in January.
If what you want is something dark, complex and unmistakable, Habik is not that and never will be. If what you want is to smell effortlessly, expensively clean — this does it better than almost anything at the price. Browse the rest of the Lattafa range for women →
The Lattafa Habik For Women Bottle
The Lattafa Habik For Women perfume bottle is a 100ml flacon with a fine, even atomiser — which matters more than usual here, because this is a fragrance you are meant to spray four to six times rather than dab twice. The Lattafa Habik For Women packaging is the standard Lattafa carton: sealed, cellophaned, batch-coded. Check that seal on arrival — an intact one is the first thing we look at when we take delivery ourselves. Our UK authentication guide shows you what to look for →
We’re not going to tell you the bottle is a work of art, because it isn’t the reason to buy this. It looks tidy on a dressing table and it holds 100ml of something that smells like it cost four times £19.99. That’s the honest summary.
What Lattafa Habik For Women Reviews Say
The consensus splits cleanly in two, and it’s worth knowing which half you’re likely to land in.
What almost everyone agrees on: it smells clean, bright and far more expensive than the price. Wearers describe it as expensive shampoo, freshly washed skin, laundry done properly. It reads as appropriate everywhere — desk, school run, wedding, first date. Reviewers repeatedly note that it works across every age group, which is why it turns up so often as a gift.
What they split on is longevity. One camp reports a full day and a soft skin-scent into the evening. The other reports a few hours and says so bluntly. That gap is skin chemistry, and it is the single most useful thing to know before ordering. The wearers reporting the best results are the ones spraying four to six times and hitting clothing and hair.
The most useful review we found came from a woman who owns Dylan Purple as well. She notices the oakmoss immediately — a sharp, slightly spicy green edge the Versace doesn’t have — and says that without it, this would be a perfect dupe. She also says the Lattafa performs better of the two. When someone holding both bottles tells you that, you can believe it.
You will also find Polish shoppers searching “lattafa habik for women opinie” and reaching the same two conclusions: lovely scent, moderate staying power. The verdict is remarkably consistent across languages.
Why Buy Habik For Women From Royal Scents
Every bottle is genuine Lattafa, sourced properly and stored in the UK. And we’ve just spent several paragraphs telling you the longevity is mediocre — because it’s the truth, because the designer fragrance it copies has precisely the same flaw, and because you deserve to know both things before you spend anything. We’d rather sell you the right bottle than process your return.

Good to Know Before You Buy
- Longevity is the one real compromise. Moderate and heavily skin-dependent. Spray four to six, and spray your clothes. If you need eight guaranteed hours from two sprays, this isn’t the bottle.
- It suits almost anyone. Wearers repeatedly note it works across every age group — a teenager and a grandmother could both wear it without it feeling wrong. That makes it an unusually safe gift.
- Spring and summer are its home, though the amber and oakmoss keep it wearable year-round.
- Contains oakmoss. A recognised allergen, so patch-test if you react to mossy or chypre fragrances. It’s also the best thing in the bottle.
- It’s a layering star. Pear or musk body lotion underneath will meaningfully extend it — and given the performance, that’s worth doing.
- Also listed as “lataffa habik for women”, “habik lattafa for women” and “habik for women by lattafa perfumes” — same fragrance, you’re on the right page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Lattafa Habik For Women a Versace Dylan Purple dupe?
Yes. Once you decode Versace’s captive molecules — mahonial is a lily of the valley note, sylkolide is a musk, ambroxan is an amber — the two share six functional notes: pear, bergamot, freesia, lily of the valley, musk and amber, in the same structure. The one real difference is oakmoss: Lattafa uses real oakmoss where Versace’s base is entirely clean synthetics, which gives Habik a green, slightly sharper edge.
Is Lattafa Habik For Women long lasting?
Honestly, it’s moderate and heavily skin-dependent. Some wearers report a full day; others find it fades within a few hours. Worth knowing: Versace Dylan Purple has exactly the same reputation — its own fans describe EDT-level performance and routinely spray six times — and at least one wearer who owns both says the Lattafa performs better. Spray generously and apply to clothing and hair as well as skin.
What are the notes in Lattafa Habik For Women?
Top notes are pear and bergamot. The heart is lily of the valley, jasmine and freesia. The base is musk, amber and oakmoss. Be aware that at least one major retailer publishes the men’s Habik notes on their women’s product page — if you are reading a pyramid with cardamom and lavender in it, you are reading the wrong fragrance.
Is Habik For Women the same as Habik For Men?
No. They are entirely different fragrances sharing a name. Habik For Women is a clean fruity floral built on pear, lily of the valley and oakmoss. Habik For Men is a spicy woody aromatic built on cardamom, lavender and tonka, and is compared to JPG Le Mâle Essence de Parfum rather than to anything Versace makes.
What does the Habik perfume for women smell like?
Fresh, clean and bright — juicy pear and bergamot over dewy white florals, with a soft musk and amber finish and a green oakmoss undertone. Many wearers describe it as smelling like expensive shampoo or freshly washed skin, which is precisely its appeal.
How much is the Lattafa Habik For Women eau de parfum, and is it in stock?
£19.99 for the 100ml bottle, reduced from an RRP of £44.99. It’s in stock now with free tracked UK delivery and dispatch within 24 hours.
What do Lattafa Habik For Women reviews say about the fragrance?
Near-universal praise for the smell — clean, bright, expensive-seeming, wearable by anyone — and a genuine split on longevity, which is skin-dependent. The most credible reviewers are those who own Dylan Purple too: they spot the oakmoss immediately and rate the Lattafa’s performance at least as highly as the Versace’s.
What season is the Habik For Women perfume best for?
Spring and summer, and daytime wear, though its amber and oakmoss base keeps it wearable in cooler weather.
How can I make it last longer?
Spray generously — four to six — and apply to clothing and hair as well as skin, where it holds considerably better. A pear or musk body lotion underneath also helps noticeably.
Written and wear-tested by Shaheen Shah Abrar, Founder of Royal Scents. Tested through a Sheffield spring, alongside a bottle of Dylan Purple. Both of them needed topping up after lunch. Only one of them made us feel silly about it.
