Khadlaj Caffe Latte — A Creamy Coffee Gourmand in the Amore Caffè Lane
Coffee · Sweet Almond · Milk · Vanilla · Ice Cream · Amber · Almond Cream · Caramel — 100ml Extrait de Parfum, 100% authentic, free UK delivery.
Most coffee perfumes smell of the bean. Caffe Latte smells of the cup: milky coffee, a spoon of sweet almond, and a caramel-vanilla finish that reads closer to a café dessert than to an espresso bar. It is one of Khadlaj’s best-known gourmands, launched in 2024 and rated 4.17 out of 5 by more than 700 voters on Fragrantica.
It is also the Khadlaj people reach for when they want Mancera Amore Caffè without the niche price. Khadlaj does not say that — its own listing makes no inspired-by claim — but Fragrantica reviewers make the comparison constantly, and in our Khadlaj dupes guide we grade it B+: the right lane, with a crowded field of budget options competing in it.
Below we set out exactly what matches Amore Caffè on paper, where reviewers say it falls short, and which other gourmands in our shop do the job differently.
The Scent Pyramid at a Glance
Nine notes across three tiers. Khadlaj’s own listing and Fragrantica agree note for note; the only difference is the order within each tier.
Coffee first, but softened straight away by milk, so it reads as a latte rather than a shot of espresso. Sweet almond gives it a marzipan edge — several wearers pick up more “drunken almond” than literal coffee.
The ice-cream accord is what makes it a dessert: a cold, creamy vanilla texture with a little warmth from amber underneath. This is the sweetest part of the wear.
Vanilla again, almond cream and caramel. The coffee fades back here and what stays is a warm, milky, nutty sweetness. Wearers note that on clothing the coffee lingers darker and more espresso-like than on skin.

Caffe Latte vs Mancera Amore Caffè — What Actually Matches
Put the two published pyramids side by side and three notes match exactly: coffee, ice cream and vanilla. Three more are close cousins rather than the same material. Only one of Amore Caffè’s notes, speculoos, has no counterpart at all.

Same lane, not a tracing. Buy Mancera for the original; buy this for the idea at an everyday price.
How close is it on skin? Opinions split. One Fragrantica reviewer calls it “almost identical to the OG for a fraction of the price”; another, Ryuseu, is simply surprised anything under $30 comes this close to a niche scent. On the other side, reviewer Palmer Eldritch finds it “lacks the coffee in Amore Caffe” and picks up a harsh, plasticky facet. That spread is exactly why we stop at B+ rather than calling it a clone. Khadlaj has no affiliation with Mancera, and Caffe Latte is sold as its own composition; the comparison is here only to help you place the scent.
The other thing to know: Amore Caffè has a lot of budget alternatives, and reviewers also mention Lattafa Eclaire, Bianco Latte and Khadlaj’s own Cream Velvet in the same breath. Caffe Latte’s advantage is that it keeps the coffee front and centre, where many of the others drift into pure caramel.
Performance — What Wearers Report
Figures are what Fragrantica wearers commonly report, not our own measurements. Most describe a strong first hour, a medium cloud for a couple more, and eight hours or longer overall — longer on clothing. A minority find it turns into a skin scent quickly. Start with three sprays and adjust.

Good to Know Before You Buy
- It is a dessert, not an espresso. If you want bitter, roasted coffee, this is too sweet. If you want a latte with a biscuit, it is spot on.
- Skin versus clothes. On skin it stays creamy and sweet; wearers say the coffee reads darker on fabric.
- Go lightly indoors. It is an extrait and a sweet one. In a warm office, two or three sprays is plenty.
- Cold-weather favourite. Autumn and winter suit it best; in real heat the sweetness can feel heavy.
- Not the same as Mocha Latte. Khadlaj also makes a Mocha Latte. This page is the original Caffe Latte.
