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.

The Heartbreaker....
Walimah is one of my absolute favorite fragrances, just to get that out of the way....
Why has it taken me so long to write a comment? Well, Walimah is not exactly the "easiest" scent, no, Walimah is rather highly complex.....

Walimah was created in 2018, and I got to know it in early 2019 - back then, Walimah came to me as a sample... The sample or the inside of the sample had a strong orange-brown color, and the content looked somehow thick and sticky...

...so I first lifted the small cap of the sample and smelled the sprayer: "Wow, it smells somehow sharp, almost like pee," shot through my mind... Undeterred, I still let Walimah take its place on my arm and sprayed a good amount on...

Walimah opens its beauty with a wonderful delicate magnolia, soft, gentle, floral - closely followed by strong Bengali oud, which is slightly animalic, just the way I like it...

The oud is strong, yet it is wonderfully balanced with the magnolia.... The oud is surrounded by gentle bitterness, fine spiciness, and balsamic tones...

Later on, the deer musk comes into play, which reminded me a bit of pee when sniffing the sprayer.... However, the deer musk is very skillfully used here, just enough so that it is not too much and does not make the scent "hard"-animalic...

I would say that Walimah is a delicate animalic-floral-spicy heartbreaker... A heartbreaker because it is no longer available today - or only very hard to find....

I could wear Walimah every day; for me, it is always suitable, but it somehow feels too sad when it is no longer there... So I use my treasure sparingly and wear it just when I need it (like right now ;-)

For anyone who likes it a bit animalic, I can only recommend a test - but be careful - Walimah is a heartbreaker, you'll see....

Walimah starts with lush champaca and magnolia, spicy and softly sweet, before melting into a gentle animalic oud, smooth musk and cocoa.

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...

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

Reminds me of gourmand notes like cinnamon & cocoa
Tropical flowers
Oud & animalic
Like an Oud Monarch
The oud is moist-earthy like in the jungle
Delicate

Blooming musk garden. Spicy, warm, green, and gently dirty. Deep sense of well-being.
How could I have overlooked your beauty until now?!

A blooming retro jumble, takes too long for me to settle into a solid base. Too many flowers for my taste.

Sweetly animalistic purr. Oriental spices. Soft floral notes. A dream from 1001 nights. Incredibly noble, not for everyday wear.

the most beautiful banana liqueur. Pure flowery sweetness and beneath that slowly emerging the green, somewhat sour vetiver and cocoa bitterness.

Floral character but softened by cocoa and oud, making it much better than Grandenia, especially for men. A masterpiece, period.
