La Collection D'Antiquity 1910 (often written La Collection D'antiquites 1910) is one of the most distinctive bottles in Lattafa's Pride line: an ornate, vintage-styled flacon housing a sweet fruity-floral gourmand for men and women, launched in 2023. Behind the antique presentation is a thoroughly modern crowd-pleaser built on apple, rose and vanilla.
Note Breakdown
Top: Apple, Davana, Rose. The opening is sparkling and fruity, with crisp apple up front and davana lending a boozy, slightly apricot-like twist. The rose appears early and stays present longer than in most sweet masculines.
Heart: Cedarwood, Osmanthus. The mid-phase dries things out slightly: cedar provides a woody spine while osmanthus adds a soft apricot-floral glow.
Base: Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Patchouli. The drydown is where it earns its keep: warm vanilla and tonka sweetness grounded by a polished patchouli that keeps it from becoming dessert.
The Scent Profile
Antiquity 1910 belongs to the rich sweet-fruity-vanilla family with a rose accent over warm woods — one of the most popular evening styles in mainstream luxury perfumery. Compared to the densest, loudest takes on this profile, the 1910 pushes the rose forward and wears lighter and closer to the skin, reading like a softer, more office-safe interpretation of the style.
Performance
This is the area where expectations matter. Community feedback is mixed: many wearers get a moderate 5 to 6 hours with gentle sillage, while others find it sits close to the skin within a couple of hours. Several reviewers note it performs better after the bottle has had a few weeks to settle. Treat it as a moderate performer, not a beast, and apply generously for evening wear.
Who Is It For?
Officially unisex, in practice it leans masculine-sweet with the rose tilting it toward shared territory. It is happiest in fall and winter, for evenings, dates and social settings where a warm, sweet trail is welcome. It also works in cooler spring weather.
Blind-Buy Verdict
Low-to-moderate risk. The scent itself is a safe, likeable style and the price is friendly. The mild con is the performance lottery: if you demand all-day longevity from a single application, you may be left wanting. For the price of entry, most people will consider it money well spent.
