About This Perfume
Think smoky spiced rum leather, sweet jasmine: that is Kajal IV. It opens with rum, davana and blackcurrant, moves into leather, jasmine and palm blossom and settles on woods, khola date and musk. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. Reach for it for nights out. Released in 2023.
Wearers report that it lasts well into the evening, and projects strongly and fills a room. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something leather forward and sweet for nights out.
- Sample first if: you prefer quiet scents; it projects.
- Skip if: you dislike spicy fragrances.
Around $120.
