Laverne Perfumes Guide: Sense, Dream and La'Dor Bakhur Classic

What is Laverne perfume?

Laverne perfume comes from Laverne, a Saudi fragrance house. Its official website describes it as a Saudi perfume brand launched from Riyadh by five brothers who wanted to make perfumes that express Arab taste in a modern spirit. The brand signs its website “To Be Different” and sells perfumes for him and for her, gift sets, hair and body mists, and a beauty line.

Searchers spell the name several ways: Laverne, La Verne and Lavern all refer to the same house. In Arabic the brand is written لافيرن. Laverne lists its own branches in Riyadh and sells online through laverne.com. In the US, Askar Perfumes carries it as an independent retailer.

Our three Laverne bottles cover two very different styles: bright, musky florals for women, and a smoky, incense-like woody scent for anyone.

Which Laverne perfumes does Askar Perfumes carry?

Askar Perfumes carries three Laverne perfumes: Sense (75 ml, $124.99), Dream (75 ml, $84.99) and La'Dor Bakhur Classic (200 ml, $99.99). All three are eau de parfum. Check each product page for current availability.

Sense and Dream are listed for women. La'Dor Bakhur Classic is listed as unisex, and it is the best value per milliliter of the three because of its 200 ml bottle. The table compares style, notes, size and price side by side, and each perfume has its own section below with the full note list from our product page.

What does Laverne Sense smell like?

Laverne Sense smells fruity at first, then soft and floral, and finally like clean musk. Our listing names blackcurrant and mandarin on top, jasmine, a cashmere accord, iris and orange blossom in the heart, and musk at the base. It is a women's floral musk eau de parfum in a 75 ml bottle and comes with a designer pouch.

According to Laverne, Sense was developed in collaboration with Georgina Rodriguez, and the brand sells it as a gift set with a pouch. If you have seen it called the Sense Collection or Georgina Sense, it is the same perfume. Sense suits anyone who likes a polished, skin-close floral rather than a heavy oriental.

What does Laverne Dream smell like?

Laverne Dream smells juicy and fruity, then floral with a hint of cocoa. Our listing names bergamot, blood orange, mandarin, peach and pineapple on top, jasmine, rose, cocoa and neroli in the heart, and musk and patchouli at the base. It is a women's fruity floral eau de parfum in a 75 ml bottle.

Dream is the most playful of the three Laverne perfumes we carry. The fruit opening is bright and sweet, the cocoa adds a soft gourmand touch, and patchouli gives the dry-down a little depth. Dream is the most affordable Laverne bottle at Askar Perfumes and a good pick for daytime and warm weather.

What is Laverne La'Dor Bakhur Classic?

La'Dor Bakhur Classic by Laverne is a unisex woody eau de parfum in the style of bakhoor, the scented wood and incense burned in Gulf homes. Our listing names mandarin on top, violet, patchouli and iris in the heart, and guaiac wood at the base, which gives it a smoky, incense-like finish. It comes in a 200 ml bottle.

Laverne sells more than one La'Dor Bakhur. Our bottle is the Classic version, and the notes above are the ones on our listing. Other La'Dor Bakhur versions on the brand's website list different notes, so check the name on the box when you compare prices. Bakhur, bakhoor and bukhoor are all spellings of the same word.

Which Laverne perfume should you choose?

Choose by the style you enjoy, because the three Laverne perfumes we carry are very different from each other:

• You like clean, musky florals: Sense. Jasmine, iris and orange blossom on musk, listed for women.
• You like fruity, sweet scents: Dream. Blood orange, peach and pineapple with a hint of cocoa, listed for women.
• You like incense and woods: La'Dor Bakhur Classic. Violet and iris on smoky guaiac wood, listed as unisex.
• You want the most perfume for the money: La'Dor Bakhur Classic, at 200 ml.
• You are buying a gift: Sense, which comes with a designer pouch.

Does Laverne make other perfumes?

Yes. Laverne makes many more perfumes than the three Askar Perfumes carries. The brand's website lists fragrances for him and for her in 75 ml, 100 ml and 200 ml bottles, gift sets, and hair and body mists. Gulf retailers also list Laverne lines such as Blue Laverne, Bianco and tobacco scents.

Askar Perfumes doesn't stock those lines right now, and we only describe perfumes we have listed ourselves. If you are looking for a specific Laverne perfume, tell us through our contact page and we will let you know whether we can get it.

The perfumes below share the main ideas behind our Laverne bottles: a soft floral musk, a fruity floral and an incense-led woody scent.
