About This Perfume
Think Smoky resin leather with warm vanilla glow: that is Kajal Warek. It opens with frankincense and saffron, moves into gaiac wood, amber and patchouli and settles on leather, Oud and vanilla. It reads unisex.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. Reach for it for nights out. Released in 2017.
In the community's experience 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 woody and grounded for nights out.
- Sample first if: you are unsure about strong spicy notes; this one divides opinion.
- Skip if: you dislike woody fragrances.
Around $114.
