The r/fragrance community has a largely negative consensus on Liam by Lattafa, with disappointed blind buyers noting it smells nothing like advertised (heavy patchouli and church-like incense instead of promised cinnamon and vanilla). While the packaging impresses for the low price, the divisive scent profile and overpowering notes make it a polarizing fragrance that most reviewers regret purchasing, with some suggesting aging the bottle may help but many finding no improvement.
