The heartbreaker...
Walimah is one of my absolute favourite fragrances, which has been...
Why did it take me so long to write a comment? Well, Walimah is not exactly the "simplest" fragrance, no, Walimah is rather highly complex.....
Walimah was created in 2018 and we met at the beginning of 2019 - at that time Walimah came to me as a rehearsal... The sample or rather the inside of the sample had a strong orange-brown colouring and the content looked somehow viscous and sticky...
...so I lifted the small cap of the sample and smelled the atomizer: "Wow, that smells kind of hot, almost like pee" it shot through my head... Unintimidated I let Walimah sit on my arm and sprayed 1 time on it...
Walimah opens its beauty with a wonderful delicate magnolia, soft, gentle, floral - closely followed by strong Bengali oud, which is slightly animalistic, just the way I like it...
The oud is powerful, but it is beautifully matched to the magnolia... The oud is surrounded by gentle bitterness, fine spice and balsamic tones...
Later in the course the deer musk is added, which had reminded me a little bit of pee when sniffing the atomizer But the deer musk is used here very skilfully, just so that it is not too much and does not make the fragrance "hard"-animalistic...
I for one would say that Walimah is a delicately animalistic-floral-spicy heartbreaker... Heartbreaker because he is no longer - or very hard to get - available...
I could wear Walimah every day, for me it is always suitable, but it is somehow much too bad if it is no longer there... So I handle my treasure sparingly and just wear it when I need it (like right now ;-)
For all those who like it a bit animalistic, I can only recommend a test - but watch out - Walimah is a heartbreaker, you'll see
