Lattafa Sherif 100ml EDP – Green Apple, Cedar & Oakmoss

Sherif is Lattafa’s fresh, green take on the modern woody-apple style. It opens with crisp apple, bitter-green petitgrain and bergamot, moves into cedarwood, cashmeran and violet, then settles on oakmoss, musk and amber. Think clean, bright and easy to wear rather than sweet or heavy.

Lattafa launched Sherif in 2025. Fragrantica classes it as a Woody Aromatic fragrance for men and rates it 4.19 out of 5 from 513 votes, with 76 written reviews at the time we checked.

Lattafa doesn’t name an inspiration, but one comparison comes up again and again in the reviews: Parfums de Marly Greenley. Some reviewers think it’s very close; others say Sherif is lighter on oakmoss and more apple-led. We give you both sides below.

The Sherif Scent Pyramid

The Sherif Notes, Layer by Layer

Top — Apple, Petitgrain, Bergamot. The opening is all about green apple. Reviewers mention it more than any other note, and some say it’s so dominant it’s hard to pick out anything else at first. Petitgrain and bergamot add a fresh, slightly bitter citrus edge, so it reads crisp rather than candy-sweet.

Heart — Cedarwood, Cashmeran, Violet. As the apple calms down, dry cedar and soft cashmeran build a clean woody core, with violet adding a cool, slightly powdery note. This is where Sherif starts to feel more grown-up.

Base — Oakmoss, Musk, Amber. The drydown is mossy, musky and gently warm. Oakmoss gives it the green, classic feel that drives the Greenley comparisons, though some reviewers say the moss is lighter here than in similar scents.

What Sherif Reviews Say

With 513 votes and 76 reviews on Fragrantica, Sherif is still building up feedback, but the votes so far lean clearly positive. 232 people voted “love” and 182 “like”, against 22 “dislike” and 8 “hate”. The praise centres on the bright green apple, how clean and easy it is to wear, and how well it suits the office, warm weather and relaxed days out.

The criticism is consistent too. Some reviewers find it too apple-dominant and linear. A few call it synthetic or sharp in the opening, and one partner’s verdict was simply “weeds”. Experiences of performance also vary: some say it fades quickly on their skin, while others say it became much stronger after the bottle had macerated.

Good to Know Before You Buy

• It’s an apple-first scent. If you love green apple, you’ll love the opening. If apple notes aren’t your thing, this probably isn’t for you.
• A daytime all-rounder. Fresh, clean and woody, so it works well for the office, spring and summer.
• Not a sweet gourmand. There’s a little sweetness from the apple and amber, but it stays fresh and green overall.
• Give it time. Reviewers commonly say it changes after resting for a few weeks.
• Also listed as “Sherif by Lattafa”, “Lattafa Sheriff”, “Lattafa Sherif EDP 100ml” and “Sherif 3.4 oz” — same fragrance, you’re on the right page.
