This one's a bit of a chancer - starts off with a bang then settles into something far more sophisticated than its price tag suggests. Don't let the initial chaos put you off; proper quality beneath the surface.

About

Risala opens with an invigorating blast of fresh mint, lemon, and aromatic herbaceous notes like rosemary and thyme, giving it a green and lively kick. As it settles, a clean lavender emerges, grounded by the smooth, earthy warmth of cedar. The dry down is a surprise - creamy sandalwood mingles with the unusual, slightly sweet scent of hay, adding a comforting, rustic depth that's genuinely captivating. It's an aromatic journey from bright greenery to woody, serene comfort.
