Lattafa Eclaire Banoffi

A banana-caramel gourmand built around the dessert it is named after, Eclaire Banoffi by Lattafa is the 2025 EDP that takes the brand's existing Eclaire creamy-pastry DNA and pushes it deeper into bakery-counter territory. The composition opens with a surprisingly realistic banana-cream lift, settles into a praline-pastry heart, and dries down to a vanilla-musk base that reads warm and edible without crossing into cloying. Aromatica carries Eclaire Banoffi as a decant in Bangladesh in all four sizes for anyone exploring the gourmand genre or the wider Eclaire line.

The Scent

The opening is the headline experience. Banana cream, whipped cream, and pastry cream arrive together with a soft, slightly synthetic candy-banana feel that several Fragrantica reviewers describe as similar to Haribo foam-sugar bananas or banana milkshake. The note reads sweet and dessert-adjacent rather than realistic ripe banana, which is consistent with how budget gourmands typically render banana accords. Within fifteen to twenty minutes, the heart phase begins to develop. Banana and dulce de leche deepen the dessert feeling, with the dulce de leche adding a caramel-cream sweetness that grounds the composition. The transition is gradual, with the candy-banana opening flowing into the creamier middle phase. The dry-down brings the pastry-counter feel in slowly. Vanilla, praline, and crumbled biscuit form a soft, slightly milky base that gives Banoffi its banoffee-pie name reference, since the toasted-biscuit and praline-nut sweetness pairs cleanly with the banana cream the way the actual dessert layers do. Musk smooths the finish into something skin-close and intimate. Performance is reported as moderate. Multiple reviewers note that Banoffi is the lightest projector of the three Eclaire flankers (alongside the original Eclaire and Eclaire Pistache), with the scent holding closer to skin after the first hour, and dependable wear time on most wearers. A few reviewers describe the scent as feeling slightly synthetic up close, which is consistent with the budget-gourmand category. Reviewers commonly layer Banoffi with other gourmands like the original Eclaire, Eclaire Pistache, or vanilla-forward fragrances to add depth.

When to Wear

Best in fall, winter, and cool evenings for casual, date, and night-out settings where the gourmand sweetness lands as cozy rather than heavy. The composition is too rich for hot Bangladesh afternoons but works well year-round in air-conditioned indoor settings. It fits naturally into the Gourmand | Sweet collection at Aromatica.

Who Is It For

Best suited to someone who already enjoys candy-sweet gourmand fragrances and wants a banana-led variation in the same lane, particularly if you have tested or own the original Lattafa Eclaire. Skip it if synthetic banana notes turn off-putting on your skin or if you prefer realistic-fruit gourmands over candy renderings.

If you enjoy this banana-pastry direction, the parent Eclaire by Lattafa is also at Aromatica and is worth comparing for the original creamy-pastry version. Browse the full Lattafa collection at Aromatica.
