Best Jasmine Perfumes UK (2026): 6 Lattafa Jasmines, From Fresh to Sweet

Buying Guide · Jasmine · Notes Checked on Fragrantica & Lattafa.com
The short answer

The best jasmine perfume for most people in our range is Lattafa Dalal (£21.49): apple and mandarin over a heart of jasmine, ylang-ylang and orange flower, on a soft vanilla, musk and oakmoss base. It is bright, polished and easy to wear by day.

Want it fresher? Try Opulent Dubai (£13.99). Sweeter? Rave Now Women (£14.99). Darker and richer? Bade’e Al Oud Amethyst (£18.99), where jasmine sits between two roses and oud.

By Shaheen Shah Abrar, Founder of Royal Scents · Notes checked against Fragrantica and lattafa.com, October 2026

Jasmine is in more perfumes than almost any other flower. It is often listed quietly in the heart, doing the work of making a fragrance feel “floral” without being the headline. That makes shopping for a jasmine perfume harder than it sounds: two bottles can both list jasmine and smell nothing alike.

This guide fixes that. First, a short explanation of what jasmine actually smells like. Then six in-stock Lattafa perfumes with jasmine in their pyramid, grouped by how the jasmine behaves: fresh and clean, fruity, with vanilla, or with rose and oud. Every pyramid below was checked on Fragrantica and on Lattafa’s own site.

What does jasmine smell like in perfume?

Real jasmine is a small white flower that smells far bigger than it looks, especially at night. In perfume it has four main sides, and which one comes forward depends on the jasmine material used and what surrounds it.

Facet 1

Sweet and honeyed

The part most people recognise: a rich, nectar-like sweetness that makes jasmine feel warm rather than airy.
Facet 2

Heady and indolic

Jasmine naturally contains indole, a compound with a slightly animalic, skin-like depth. In small amounts it makes jasmine sensual; in large amounts some people find it heavy.
Facet 3

Fruity

Jasmine has a soft fruity edge, which is why it pairs so naturally with apple, mango and red fruits.
Facet 4

Green and fresh

A light, leafy brightness that comes forward when jasmine sits next to citrus, ginger or violet.

Perfumers mainly use two types. Jasmine grandiflorum (often called Spanish or Moroccan jasmine) is the classic, rounder and more honeyed. Jasmine sambac, widely grown in South and Southeast Asia and much loved across the Gulf, is greener and more fruity, with a tea-like freshness. Lattafa’s pyramids usually just say “jasmine”, so the surrounding notes are your best guide to which side you will get.

Jasmine vs tuberose vs gardenia

All three are “white florals”, and they often appear together. Here is the quick difference:

Jasmine
Sweet, heady and slightly fruity, with that indolic depth. The most versatile: it can go fresh or rich.
Tuberose
Creamier, butterier and louder. Think white flower dipped in honey and warm milk.
Gardenia
Creamy and green, with a lush, almost coconut-like softness. Usually recreated from a blend, since the flower gives little natural oil.

If you find jasmine too sharp and want something creamier, tuberose is the next step. Our guide to what tuberose smells like in perfume covers it in depth.

Fresh and clean jasmine

These two use citrus to lift the jasmine and keep it light. They are the easiest jasmine perfumes for daytime, work and warmer weather.

Best overall · Bright jasmine

1. Lattafa Dalal

Lattafa Dalal 100ml EDP, an apple and jasmine perfume with a vanilla base

Notes: apple, mandarin / jasmine, ylang-ylang, orange flower / vanilla, musk, oakmoss. Lattafa names the apple as Golden Delicious; Fragrantica lists the orange-flower note as orange.

Dalal is the clearest example of jasmine done bright. Fragrantica voters rank citrus, white floral and yellow floral as its top three accords, so the jasmine arrives with sunny fruit rather than heaviness. The vanilla and musk keep it soft, and the oakmoss gives it a polished, grown-up finish. Our explainer on what oakmoss smells like shows how that base keeps sweet florals from turning sugary.

It rates 4.34 out of 5 from 512 votes on Fragrantica, one of the best scores in this guide. Wearer impressions (paraphrased from Fragrantica reviews): many describe a clean white floral that softens after the bottle has rested; a minority find the jasmine and ylang-ylang strong at first.

2. Lattafa Opulent Dubai

Lattafa Opulent Dubai 100ml EDP, a mango, grapefruit and jasmine fragrance

Notes: mango, grapefruit, lemon, ginger / jasmine, cedarwood, violet / woody notes, ambergris, oakmoss, benzoin. Fragrantica and lattafa.com list the same notes.

Opulent Dubai is a citrus and tropical scent first, and its jasmine is a supporting player. That is exactly why it belongs here: it shows the fresh, green side of jasmine, sitting with violet and cedar so the heart feels airy rather than heady. Fragrantica’s top accords are citrus, tropical and fruity, with fresh spicy and woody further down.

It launched in 2025 and already rates 4.33 out of 5 from 2,983 Fragrantica votes. Be clear on what you are buying: if you want jasmine to be the star, choose Dalal. If you want a bright summer scent with a floral lift, this is the one.

Fruity jasmine

Jasmine’s natural fruitiness makes it a perfect partner for tropical notes. Here the flower is woven into the fruit, not layered on top.

Fruit first · Mango and osmanthus

3. Lattafa Ajayeb Dubai Portrait

Lattafa Ajayeb Dubai Portrait 100ml EDP, a mango, osmanthus and jasmine fragrance

Notes: orange, lemon / mango, osmanthus, jasmine / oud, sandalwood, musk, amber. Fragrantica and lattafa.com agree.

The heart is the interesting part. Mango, osmanthus (a flower with an apricot-like smell) and jasmine sit together, so the jasmine reads juicy and sunny. Underneath, sandalwood, musk and a little oud give it a creamy, woody finish. Fragrantica’s leading accords are fruity, tropical and citrus, with floral and oud further down.

It is the most divisive pick here, at 3.78 out of 5 from 1,496 votes. Wearer impressions (paraphrased from Fragrantica reviews): several describe a sharp opening in a new bottle that settles with time.

Suits: fruity-floral fans, warmer days
Listed for: women and men
Price: £13.99 · 100ml · in stock

Jasmine and vanilla perfume

Jasmine and vanilla is one of the classic pairings: the vanilla smooths jasmine’s indolic edge and the jasmine stops the vanilla feeling like pure dessert. These two take it in very different directions.

Sweetest · Marshmallow and vanilla

4. Lattafa Rave Now Women

Lattafa Rave Now Women 100ml EDP, a sweet jasmine, marshmallow and vanilla perfume

Notes: red fruits, orange / marshmallow, lily of the valley, jasmine / vanilla, moss, musk. Lattafa’s official list.

This is jasmine at its softest and most playful. The jasmine sits in a fluffy marshmallow heart with lily of the valley, over a vanilla and musk base, so it reads as a sweet, powdery floral rather than a heady one. Lattafa sells it as a women’s fragrance and lists it as a 2023 launch.

One warning: Rave Now White is a different perfume with no jasmine in its pyramid, so do not swap one for the other. Our Rave Now vs Rave Now White vs Rave Now Women guide sets the three side by side.

Suits: fans of soft, sugary scents, casual wear

5. Lattafa Her Confession

Lattafa Her Confession 100ml EDP, a jasmine, tuberose, incense and vanilla perfume

Notes: cinnamon, Mystikal / tuberose, jasmine, incense, Mahonial / vanilla, musk, tonka bean. Fragrantica and lattafa.com list the same core notes.

Her Confession is the grown-up take on jasmine and vanilla. Jasmine shares the heart with tuberose and incense, warmed by cinnamon on top and a creamy vanilla and tonka base. Fragrantica’s top accords are vanilla, white floral and tuberose, so expect a rich, smoky white-floral rather than a sweet one. It rates 3.91 out of 5 from 3,515 votes.

Tuberose leads here, with jasmine supporting, so it suits someone who likes big florals. For the full breakdown, read our Her Confession review.

Jasmine with rose and oud

In Arabian perfumery, jasmine often plays a bridging role between rose and dark woods. It adds brightness to the rose and softens the oud.

Richest · Rose, jasmine and oud

6. Lattafa Bade’e Al Oud Amethyst

Lattafa Bade'e Al Oud Amethyst 100ml EDP, a rose, jasmine and oud perfume

Notes: pink pepper, bergamot / Turkish rose, Bulgarian rose, jasmine / agarwood (oud), amber, vanilla. Fragrantica and lattafa.com list the same eight notes.

Amethyst is a rose oud first: Fragrantica voters rank rose and oud as its top two accords, with white floral further down. The jasmine is what keeps two roses and agarwood from feeling dense, adding a lift through the heart before the amber and vanilla base. It is the most-voted bottle here, at 4.01 out of 5 from 4,326 votes, and has been around since 2021.

Choose it if you want jasmine in a deeper, more Middle Eastern style. To see how it compares with its siblings, read our Bade’e Al Oud collection guide.

A note on performance

We do not print hour-by-hour longevity figures, because Lattafa does not publish them and wearer reports vary widely. As a rule, jasmine paired with vanilla, amber or oud (Her Confession, Amethyst, Rave Now Women) tends to stay noticeable longer than jasmine paired with citrus (Opulent Dubai). Skin, weather and how many sprays you use matter just as much. Spraying clothes as well as skin helps any of them.

Jasmine perfume FAQs

Tap a question to open the answer.

What does jasmine smell like in perfume?
Sweet, honeyed and heady, with a slightly fruity edge and a warm, skin-like depth from a natural compound called indole. Next to citrus it reads fresh and green; next to vanilla or oud it reads rich and sensual.
What is the best jasmine perfume in the UK for under £25?
In our range, Lattafa Dalal (£21.49) is the best all-round jasmine: it rates 4.34 out of 5 on Fragrantica and the jasmine is clearly part of the heart. For under £15, Rave Now Women (£14.99) is the sweet option and Opulent Dubai (£13.99) the fresh one. Every order has free UK delivery.
What is a good jasmine and vanilla perfume?
For a sweet, soft pairing, choose Rave Now Women, where jasmine sits with marshmallow over vanilla and musk. For a richer, smoky version, choose Her Confession, which adds tuberose, incense and tonka. Dalal and Amethyst also have vanilla in the base, but in a lighter supporting role.
Is jasmine perfume only for women?
No. Jasmine appears in plenty of men’s and unisex fragrances. In this guide, Opulent Dubai, Ajayeb Dubai Portrait and Bade’e Al Oud Amethyst are all listed for women and men on Fragrantica. Dalal and Her Confession are listed for women on Fragrantica, and Lattafa sells Rave Now Women as a women’s scent.
What is the difference between jasmine and tuberose?
Both are heady white flowers, but tuberose is creamier and butterier, while jasmine is sweeter, fruitier and more versatile. Her Confession contains both, with tuberose leading. Our tuberose guide explains the note in more detail.
Does Rave Now White contain jasmine?
No. Its Fragrantica pyramid is grapefruit and bergamot, green apple and patchouli, then musk, cashmeran and amber. If you want the jasmine Rave Now, choose Rave Now Women.
