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

Treasure juice
This is treasure-juice really!!

It’s like i’m walking through a jungle in the middle of the night. It’s warm but the trees and the flowing water nearby the waterfall keep me from getting stuffy.
You can smell the variety of white and yellow wild flowers and the mouthwatering sweet fruits and the different kind of woods who live there together in harmony and make it feel like paradise. I smell that, somewhere, far from where i walk, there must be a village where the spices of late dinner are still wandering in the air plus a dark dry cocoa vibe

Paradise in a bottle

Florals steal the show...
As strange as this sounds...I’ve sampled this repeatedly but it opens up ...reminiscent of grape kool-aid but then shifts quickly to the most realistic white/yellow narcotic and crisp floral with the slightest hints of chocolatey musk. I loved the opening and the mid which then reminded me of the cleanest sheets just out of the drier. That scent of the florals passing through the open windows in the summer. Fabric softener + realistic florals intermingling. Unfortunately, the final phase was a real turn off for me. The end result was extremely floral, feminine, and that’s it. I couldn’t detect much more than the florals at this point. I really couldn’t understand the hype in this scent. Sample before purchasing unless you are into florals. Had this stayed like the opening or even the mid, I would be all over it buying a full bottle and a backup. While I do respect this fragrance and I appreciate all of the naturals that went into this composition, I didn’t like where it went. I went from being excited to disappointed within a matter of 45 minutes.

This is true craft perfumery, a masterpiece of a novice perfumer who used rare ingredients and spared no expense.

This Oriental Floral beauty has many other subtle layers. It leans more feminine, but I don't care! This is what Heaven must smell like...
