Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

This is a beast of a fragrance with massive projection and longevity, making it unsuitable for most office environments where subtlety is key. Its complex, attention-grabbing profile and fresh-sweet nature make it perfect for dates and casual outings, and its luxurious feel allows it to dress up for certain formal events, though perhaps not the most traditional. It's too heavy for active sport.

About

A complex sensory journey, Ajyal bursts open with a vibrant medley of zesty citrus-grapefruit, lemon, lime-juicy fruits like apple, plum, and pear, underpinned by a fresh, green, and aquatic rain-like accord. The heart reveals a rich blend of florals, from delicate cherry blossom and jasmine to heady ylang-ylang, softened by a sweet loukhoum note. Finally, it settles into a warm, inviting base of amber, vanilla, cedar, and brown sugar, making for an intoxicating and ever-evolving fragrance.
