Kajal
5 fragrances
Kajal's five scents in our catalog are generous, layered compositions with fruit at the top and roses, white flowers or oud underneath. Lamar, by perfumer Mark Buxton, is a rich rose and jasmine piece; Warde mixes absinthe and pine with oud; Kajal Homme was the house's first men's fragrance. It suits people who like full, warm perfumes with a lot happening.
Where to start with Kajal
- Kajal Lamar: red berries, apple, pineapple, cardamom and coriander oil lead to Bulgarian rose oil, Turkish rose absolute, jasmine sambac and magnolia over a woody amber base. Perfumer Mark Buxton aimed for a rich, natural feel.
- Kajal Warde: absinthe, armoise, pine and black currant open onto jasmine, orange blossom, violet and rose, with oud, fir balsam, moss and patchouli at the bottom.
- Kajal Homme: cassis, grapefruit and mandarine over gaiac wood, cardamom, orange blossom and cashmeran, then oud, musk, patchouli, sandalwood, tonka and vanilla.
- Kajal Dahab: bergamot and Granny Smith apple, a passionfruit, cedar and coriander seed heart, and a base of patchouli, musk and amber.
- Kajal Eau De Parfum for Women: Amalfi lemon, bergamot and mandarin, a Turkish rose and orris heart, and musk, amber, vanilla, tonka and sandalwood below.
How to choose
Rose lovers should begin with Lamar for depth or the house's women's Eau De Parfum for a softer, powdery rose. If you want something green and unusual, Warde's absinthe and pine opening is the most distinctive. Dahab is the fruitiest and most playful, good for daytime. Kajal Homme and Warde both carry oud in the base, making them the cold-weather, evening picks.
