I don’t know the original perfume this is inspired by; I bought it blindly based on a Fragrantica review. It’s very long-lasting but subtle—I almost have to press my nose to it to smell it. It’s a modern, unisex scent with a masculine lean, a clean fragrance that isn’t soapy, featuring a cold, metallic touch that eventually turns creamy without losing that freshness. I like it, but it doesn’t blow me away. I’ll keep studying it, and if my impression changes, I’ll update this review.
I agree with everything said above. I’d add that its opening is bold and reminded me of Lattafa’s ‘Badee Al Oud Honor & Glory,’ though it softens quickly, sits closer to the skin, and is less harsh. For me, ‘Liam’ is the softer version of ‘Honor & Glory’.
LIAM GREY BY LATTAFA VS BDK GRIS CHARNEL & EXTRAIT: When I tried Gris Charnel last summer, I had high expectations due to the hype. As usual, reality fell short in the end. I admit it’s a great perfume; the opening surprises you with cardamom, tea, and fig—something green that lasts about 10 minutes. The best part is the dry-down, which is spectacular: creamy thanks to the sandalwood and tonka, with a slightly sweet, milky lactonic vibe that makes it more feminine, though all three mentioned here are totally unisex. To me, it feels like a hybrid between Cristal Noir and Society. The downside is the longevity; at around €200, it’s very short-lived, lasting no more than 4 hours with barely any projection or sillage. I think the Extract has a very powerful opening with earthy, dark Bourbon vetiver, which settles into its original creamy side in the dry-down without losing that dark character; combined with the patchouli, it feels a bit more durable, but still not what it should be, and in my opinion, more masculine. These perfumes have great evolution. Liam carries the same notes as the Extract but reminds me more of the first one; it’s quite linear, though the fig is barely noticeable. Here, there’s no evolution—it’s creamy, slightly sweet, and spiced from the start, staying that way the whole time. It’s also not much longer, to my surprise, 3-4 hours, but at least it doesn’t hurt your wallet; you can find it for €22-25, and the scent is quite similar. Unless you’re an expert, you won’t notice the difference when testing them side-by-side (I’ve done all three). Obviously, the original has more nuances and a fruity-herbal point that Liam lacks, but if you love Gris Charnel, it doesn’t last, and considering the controversy over its INCI ingredients, this is a very good option.
I tried Gris Charnel last summer with high expectations, but reality often disappoints after the hype. It’s a beast of a fragrance: the opening surprises with cardamom, tea, and green fig lasting about 10 minutes, but the drydown is the best part—creamy thanks to sandalwood and tonka, sweet with a slightly milky note, more feminine though all three are unisex. It smells like a mix between Cristal Noir and Society. The downside is longevity: for €200, it barely lasts 4 hours with weak projection. The extrait has a powerful opening with earthy bourbon vetiver that becomes creamy in the drydown without losing its darkness, more long-lasting and masculine. They have great evolution. Liam shares the same notes as the extrait but leans more toward the original; it’s more linear, the fig is barely noticeable, and it opens creamy, sweet, and spicy, staying that way. It lasts 3-4 hours, but at least it doesn’t hurt your wallet—you can grab it for €22-25 and it smells similar. If you’re not an expert, you won’t notice the difference when testing them side by side. The original has more nuances and a fruity-herbal touch that’s missing in Liam, but if you love Gris and it doesn’t last, considering the controversy over its ingredients, here’s a very good alternative.
It evokes mixed feelings. I bought it because they say it smells like chai tea. However, that scent comes after several minutes; it seems to open up masculine, which scared me a bit. But the dry-down aroma is rich. If you like sandalwood and cardamom, it’s a good option; those are the notes I smell the most. But if you like very feminine perfumes, I wouldn’t buy it. I still haven’t decided whether to keep it or give it to my boyfriend because I like it, but I feel it’s masculine at the opening.
For a unisex scent, it leans more masculine, but it smells delicious. What a delightful composition where I felt its first three notes: black tea, fig, and cardamom. These give it an earthy tone, a petrichor (wet earth) aroma, then sweet notes come out from the sandalwood, vanilla, and tonka bean. I loved that all its notes are felt: the labdanum, patchouli, and vetiver, and the iris lingers at the end with a milky touch (I clarify that’s how I noticed it on my pH). First Lattafa perfume I bought that didn’t disappoint; it’s a brand I wasn’t betting on much, and it made me change my mind. I’m going for more delights from this brand that smell divine, and best of all, they aren’t expensive. I haven’t worn it yet, but on a double dose on my neck, it works divinely.
It’s beautiful, to the point that I’d recommend it as a blind buy, but it’s always preferable to try it first.
I’m being serious; in my experience and without exaggerating, it doesn’t feel like another Arabic fragrance; the quality from the opening, through the dry down, to the end is notable. I’ve never tried Gris Charnel, but if it’s an inspiration or a clone, it’s a true delight. Subtly sweet, a bit creamy, though I don’t smell much iris. In my opinion, it can be used daily regardless of the weather. It’s a bit elegant, also suitable for events or gatherings. Everything in my experience. Cheers!
I just received this fragrance that I was eager to try after the success of other brand acquisitions. Let me be clear: I haven’t smelled the famous Gris Charnel by BDK, so I don’t know if it’s very or not very similar, but I can affirm it surpasses any expectation. It does give me a vibe similar to Gentleman EDT, mainly due to the iris and cardamom, but in a much less dense fragrance. Liam Grey then takes its own path, adding sweetness (perhaps more from the fig than the vanilla or tonka bean), making it round, fresh, yet with personality, cleaner and neater than Gentleman EDT (which is still a beast of a scent). I think it works in almost any setting because it adds personality. I consider it unisex; it reminds me slightly of a Gaultier women’s perfume and Kilian tea notes, but leaning more masculine. For me, a 10.
It’s a great perfume; given the price, I thought it would feel synthetic, but quite the opposite. From the very first second, it gives the impression of being niche with that natural aroma: black tea with delicious fig, then comes the incredible iris à la Givenchy, and it projects incredibly well, creating an excellent trail.
Wow! Liam pulls off a historic draw with Gris Charnel by BDK as the away team, complicating his rival’s survival. He’s elegant in his moves, anticipates the play, and leaves you alone in the box to scream goal. It’s a winning perfume, subtle like Iniesta, with the stature of Zidane. The definition is up to you. It’s not for everyone; they don’t like parties or loudness. It’s the perfume for the guy who doesn’t dance at the club but leaves with the most beautiful. It’s like your friend who, without being a model, always gets the attention of the most coveted. You don’t choose Liam; Liam chooses you.
Holy cow! Liam pulls off a historic draw against Gris Charnel by BDK away from home, making his rival’s survival look shaky. He moves with elegance, anticipates every play, and leaves you one-on-one in front of the keeper to score. It’s a winning scent—subtle like Iniesta, with the gravitas of Zidane. The definition is up to you. It’s not for everyone; they don’t like parties or blaring speakers. This is the fragrance for the guy who doesn’t dance at the club but leaves with the most beautiful woman. It’s like your friend who isn’t a model but always gets the attention of the most coveted guy. You don’t choose Liam; Liam chooses you.
I have a review from the day I bought it below, but it’s only now that I’ve worn it for the first time, and my god, what exquisite refinement. It smells absolutely synthetic-free and very niche; it reminds me a lot of L’ombre des Merveilles by Hermès. It doesn’t have powerful projection, but it’s not weak either; it stays reserved and then makes itself noticed with discreet elegance. Vetiver, vanilla, labdanum, and patchouli are the standout notes, especially the glorious and exquisite vetiver. I’m buying more bottles of this delicious beauty; I want more of this rich, well-structured work of art. I’m in love, utterly delighted.
BDK’s Gris Charnel is what it’s supposed to resemble, hitting that mark about 90% of the time. It smells great if you like that juicy, honeyed fig accord. But it’s not just fig; there are soft woods in the base, like sandalwood. Very rich and long-lasting on the skin.
I’ve been wearing this for a year now, and the first time I inhaled its scent, I knew it wasn’t ordinary. To me, it smells like coconut with citrus, even if they don’t say so; maybe it’s the black tea, cardamom, and fig blend. It’s elegant, subtle, and transports me to a gray, mild spring, just like its name. I think most people will like it because, although it’s niche, it’s not challenging. I wear it occasionally and get compliments. I haven’t tried the BDK Gris Charnel dupe yet, but I hope I can someday. My rating: 8.5/10.👃🏼🩶
Hi, I’m wearing it right now and it smells beautiful and rich. I still need to let it macerate; my experience with Lattafa is that they don’t macerate their batches well. In terms of aroma, it conveys cleanliness, is pleasant to the nose, and feels like very good quality, with no bad synthetics. I won’t go into note details or give myself a hard time like many who read the notes but can’t distinguish them… Do all tastes vary? Yes, like personality. Is it a great fragrance? Undoubtedly, it’s well-constructed and achieved. And the price… that’s a lie. If you like fragrances or collecting, it’s a must-have. Another top pick from Lattafa. Cheers.
I bought it yesterday, and honestly, it wasn’t what I expected. It’s much more feminine than I imagined; if you don’t like sweet scents, this isn’t for you. It’s sweeter than Khamrha.
Well… After receiving it, it doesn’t seem like a good copy of Gris Charnel (I have two vials). It lacks sweetness, smells more mentholated, less unisex, and more masculine. You have to imagine the fig and tea because it’s very synthetic. Basically, it smells like very soft sandalwood (you have to let it rest to gain strength). For me, Gris Charnel doesn’t project or last much either… I’d stay with the Zara copy a thousand times. I have an unopened backup and I think I’ll buy another. In short, at first glance, it’s not worth it for this Lattafa one. Maybe it will surprise me in months, but at first, it’s a no. Does it resemble? Yes, but it falls short. I’d give it a barely passing grade. No ‘slam dunk’ at all 😅
I don’t know if it resembles Chanel’s Grey, but the Zara one doesn’t resemble the Zara one; it’s identical to Red Temptation, that base, and no matter how hard I search for a difference, it’s the same. Liam is fresh, elegant, with a light projection, clean, and a light trail. It’s unisex.
My expectations were too high when I bought it. For me, it’s just another Arabic scent, continuing with that synthetic vibe, dizzying air, and alcoholic opening. Very poor longevity.
I haven’t smelled BDK’s Gris Charnel so I can’t compare. Opening: a bit alcoholic like most Arabic scents, but with a creamy, thick, sweet fig that doesn’t get cloying. Exquisite and warm cardamom. I don’t really detect the tea; it’s my first perfume with that note, so I need to learn to identify it. Soft heart, powdery, creamy from the sandalwood, slightly sweet and floral. The fig is still there. I perceive a minimal bitterness from the labdanum and vetiver. Sensual vanilla that doesn’t dominate, adding volume and rounding out the scent (I don’t like prominent vanillas). It smells elegant, sophisticated, and delicate. Performance: I have dry skin. When I first got it, it projected for 1 hour and lasted 3 on skin. Today, after several days of maceration, it projects little (30-40 cm) for about 1.5 hours and lasts 5 hours, with a moderate trail for 2 hours. I’m not complaining since I paid cheap and it smells delicious, but I hope it improves with maceration. Edit: First perfume to make my neck itch, but not the back of my neck, arms, or hands. Strange. Edit 2: After smelling BDK’s Gris Charnel, I gave this away. It seemed flat, lacking charisma, and boring. Like the BDK, it’s very expensive for what it offers.
This perfume proves that paying 10 times more is just for the luxury. It’s exactly the same, even with less projection.
I’m surprised no one notices the resemblance to Tom Ford’s Black Orchid. It’s not a clone, but it’s the same olfactive profile. It reminds me a lot of the smell, just less intense and a bit sweeter. Softer and velvety, but the similarity to Tom Ford is evident.
Lattafa’s Liam is an intense, cool oriental wood that deserves to be discovered. Its longevity and trail are beastly, making it perfect for special occasions and cool nights. If you want to stand out, this is a must-consider option. It’s unisex but leans more masculine. It opens with cardamom, black tea, and sweet fig—very fresh and lively—and although they won’t say it, there’s a soft creamy coconut undertone. As it develops, the warm heart of labdanum, iris, and vetiver adds depth. The base of sandalwood, vanilla, and tonka bean is rich, voluptuous, and lasts forever. The best part is its longevity: it’s long-lasting, over 12 hours on skin. The trail is moderate, not overwhelming but definitely intense. Ideal for mild weather, autumn, and spring, especially at night. In winter, the trail might be too much, and in summer, the sweet notes could get cloying. For dates and special events, it exudes quality and elegance. Olfactorily, it has a lot of cardamomo like YSL’s La Nuit de l’Homme, but denser. The real similarity is with BDK’s Gris Charnel Extrait, reaching a 90% dupe status. The difference is that Liam lacks cedar in the base, but you’d need a very trained nose to notice.
Such a rich scent. You can definitely smell the tea and fig. It smells very different from what I’m used to; I hope the hype dies down a bit.
Lattafa’s Liam is an intense, sophisticated oriental woody fragrance that deserves to be discovered. Its longevity and trail are impressive, and the scent is perfect for special occasions and cold nights. If you’re looking for a fragrance that makes you stand out, Liam is definitely worth considering. It’s unisex but leans masculine. It opens with fresh, delicious notes of cardamom, black tea, and sweet fig, bringing a sense of freshness and vitality, with a very soft creamy coconut note that’s not explicitly listed but is perceptible. As it develops, the heart reveals a warm, sophisticated blend of labdanum, iris, and vetiver, adding depth and complexity. Finally, the base notes of sandalwood, vanilla, and tonka bean provide a rich, voluptuous foundation that lingers on the skin. One of Liam’s standout features is its longevity. This fragrance is truly long-lasting, staying on the skin for over 12 hours. The trail is moderate, leaning soft, meaning it’s not overwhelming but intense enough to leave a lasting impression. It’s ideal for temperate climates, autumn, and spring, especially at night when its intense, warm aroma shines. In winter, the moderate trail might go unnoticed, while in summer, the sweet notes could become cloying. However, for special occasions and dates, Liam is an excellent choice, denoting quality and sophistication, making it perfect for those seeking a fragrance that reflects their elegance and style. Regarding similarities, Liam bears a notable resemblance to La Nuit de l’Homme by Yves Saint Laurent thanks to the characteristic cardamom in its composition, but with a denser touch. However, the true similarity lies with Gris Charnel Extrait by BDK, sharing a surprising likeness, often considered a 90% dupe. The main difference is that Liam lacks cedar in its base notes, though a trained nose might detect it in the air.
So rich. You can really smell the tea and fig. A very different scent from what you usually get, let’s hope the hype cools down a bit.
I didn’t imagine it would be like this, but I was pleasantly surprised. The opening is creamy, like a nut without the shell or the texture of garlic (without the smell, just the creaminess, I think it’s the cardamom; I’m not a fan of it, but here it adds density and creaminess). Tea is always present; if it feels ‘black’, just like the fig which is slightly sweet but creamier (thanks to the cardamom). If I had to describe it in an image: boiling black tea and what you smell is the steam (not warm) in a cabin or elegant house aromatized with sandalwood, light dry wood (not pine), and some perfectly ripe figs. It’s an elegant and ‘grey’ scent. Neutral. As for the iris, I can’t quite distinguish it well.
Interesting and special. It reminds me of Blind Fragrances’ Punto, sharing notes, but Punto is more floral, friendly, and easy. Liam is more neutral, unisex, green, and bitter. The biggest similarity is that sandalwood base, very relaxing. The only downside is I need a very special mood to wear it. Sometimes I feel it’s too bitter, other times comforting, cozy, and introspective. It seems like perfume for a rainy day.
I bought it blind because the notes sparked my curiosity, and I’m pleasantly surprised. I’m a very casual person, rarely seen wearing shirts, but if I did wear them constantly, I’d definitely make this my signature scent. It’s unique and delicious. I’d wear it more in cool weather than warm, as the fragrance itself has a certain warmth. I’d define it as subtle, unique, and elegant. I agree with Labrito03 on everything except that the opening is alcoholic; you can smell it, but it lasts less than two seconds, so I wouldn’t list it as a flaw since it doesn’t ruin the experience like other fragrances do. Otherwise, 100% agree with his description. – Scent: 10/10 (My favorite for wearing a shirt in cool weather. I keep it on my hands to enjoy the aroma) – Performance: 6/10 (Its weakest point; projects for about 1.5 hours at two meters, trails for 2 hours, and lasts on my skin for a max of 5 hours. It’s been oxygenating for over 6 months now) – Versatility: 7/10 (While I see it more for cool weather, I’d wear it on a summer night without issue. It doesn’t overwhelm; it’s very subtle. Just make sure your outfit matches the fragrance’s elegance) – Presentation: 7/10 (Plastic cap, plain bottle; nothing extraordinary. Good box, though unnecessarily large, and a decent atomizer) – Price: 10/10 (Cost me $22)
I bought it blind out of curiosity with the notes and I’m pleasantly surprised. I’m very informal and rarely wear shirts, but if I did, I’d definitely use this as a signature. It’s very unique and delicious, though I’d use it more in cool climates than warm ones due to its certain warmth. I’d define it as subtle, unique, and elegant. I agree with Labrito03 on everything except that the opening is alcoholic; it’s noticeable but lasts two seconds, so it doesn’t ruin the experience. Otherwise, 100% agree. – Scent: 10/10 (My favorite for wearing a shirt in the fresh air, I use it on my hands). – Performance: 6/10 (Weak point: projects 1.5 hours at 2 meters, sillage 2 hours, bubble longevity max 5 hours. Already oxygenated after 6 months). – Versatility: 7/10 (More for cool weather, but no problem in summer, doesn’t overwhelm, subtle. Let the clothes do the work). – Presentation: 7/10 (Plastic cap, undistinguished bottle, nothing special. Good box but big, decent atomizer). – Price: 10/10 (Cost me $22).
A very soft and unisex perfume. It doesn’t stand out for any specific ingredient; I don’t see any defined concept, just soft. Not fruity, not vanilla, not woody, not powdery, not spicy. With just one sample, I say you need to spray it many times to notice anything.
What a letdown. I bought it blind due to the hype and ended up confused. It’s hyper-similar to Lattafa’s Zanzibar, almost identical. This one is less sweet, I don’t know, it feels like a rip-off. These Lattafa launches and their sister scents that all look alike just changing the bottle are starting to annoy me.
If it had more punch in projection and lasted longer, it would be a 10/10 because it smells absolutely delicious. It’s a cozy, close scent that doesn’t shout, inviting intimacy, and it impressively handles the daily grind. I’d wear it all the time without trying to call attention. That blend of cardamom, fig, and vanilla makes you not want to stop smelling it and makes you feel secure; I just sprayed it on my hand after letting it rest for a month, and it smells better than when I first bought it, which makes me very happy. I love the dry down and opening: when I bought it, it smelled very alcoholic, now it’s refined and sweet/elegant. To conclude, yes, they will definitely tell you how delicious you smell. You’ll shock them!
I haven’t smelled the original it’s said to inspire, but it smells a lot like The One by Dolce & Gabbana, one of my favorites. That powdery iris scent, the slight sweetness of vanilla, sandalwood, and fig makes you stand out. The quality is superb, 10/10. Sexy and elegant aroma, very masculine despite being unisex. Good longevity, about 7 hours. The price is ridiculous for what it is; there are Arab or designer perfumes that leave much to be desired, but if you slap a Dior, YSL, or Gucci label on something, you pay blind more than €150, and this is better. In summary: the best thing I’ve seen lately.
Although I haven’t tried Gris Charnel, with Liam I have a clear experience: it’s unique but pleasant for everyone. Ideal for temperate or cold climates, perfect for that transitional spring or autumn season, though it works well in winter as a daily wear. It’s captivating without being limited to those scenarios; with good posture, it can be your signature scent—you don’t need a suit, just good clothes. And pss, I can’t be objective because it mixes notes I adore: fig, cardamom, sandalwood, tea, and iris. It does it great, and at this price, you won’t regret it.
Beautiful perfume, period. It’s a total blind buy. Longevity is its weak point, max 5 hours on skin, but for the price, just reapply and you’re good. Moderate sillage, perfect for the office: noticeable but not annoying, about a one-meter bubble at first, then closer. I loved it and already bought a second bottle as a backup; the price is ridiculous. Scent: 9.5, Versatility: 8, Sillage: 7, Longevity: 7. Total: 8. Highly recommended. Greetings from Córdoba.
One of the most balanced scents I’ve ever tried: incredibly long-lasting and versatile without being overpowering. That blend of fig, vanilla, and black tea is pure magic; it breaks the mold of soft perfumes and on a woman’s skin, it’s incredibly sexy. It still smells amazing on clothes hours later. 100/10
