Lamar Kajal 2020

After Almaz, this is the second fragrance from this brand in my collection. When I bought Almaz, a sample of this beautiful fragrance was included and I loved it from the start. The DNA and this style of scent is totally my thing, especially as you don't feel like you've smelled anything like it before. The Kajal fragrances are just great, because they smell 100% high quality and just very neat and modern. You can also get them at affordable prices, especially if you buy from the right sites at the right time.
Listed here as a women's fragrance, on other sites as unisex. With Niche, it is not always entirely clear to which gender a fragrance has been assigned. Not a bad thing, as everyone should decide for themselves what they want to wear. With high-quality fragrances, the transitions are usually more fluid than with clichéd designers anyway. With this fragrance, you should be a little more modern and self-confident and wear it. It is also less suited to the bad boy look. It is much easier for women, as fruity-floral notes are actually always suitable. Men who find it too feminine can certainly layer it, which works relatively well with this Lamar.

Kajal is a French house, which probably has Arabic roots or at least follows such a concept in terms of appearance. The fragrances have little to no oriental influence. The boxes of this brand are really pretty and the bottles are really gorgeous, especially these beautifully decorated lids. A real eye-catcher.
To like this Lamar, you have to like fragrances a la Accento by Xerjoff. This Accento is far from a twin, but they share this pineapple and floral direction. Some also compare this Lamar with Delina and Baccarat Rouge. Delina is far from a fragrance twin, but that lychee-rose vibe is subtly reminiscent of this PdM. On the whole, Lamar is independent for me.
Lamar starts with lots of juicy pineapple, which immediately catches me. The DNA simply stays in your memory and you want to smell this juicy note again and again. Subtle notes of apple, orange and something similar to lychee are also present at the opening. This is followed by a gentle spice of saffron and cardamom with a subtle oriental touch. The flowers also start very early, especially rose. A gentle rose that goes well with the juicy pineapple. All in all, a great floral mix that lays gently on the skin. The base is creamy, clean musk and lots of sweetness, which plays a role throughout the fragrance. The sweetness is pleasant, but also allows the other notes to breathe. Overall, it is very harmonious and the DNA is simply very refreshingly independent and seductive.
Performance is amazing, especially for this relatively fresh fragrance DNA. All of the Kajal fragrances tested are convincing in terms of durability and sillage. Especially those who use at least 4 sprays of Lamar will stand out thanks to the really very good sillage. Shelf life should exceed 12 hours, on clothing of course much longer.

Overall, a great fragrance that is best worn in the evening or during leisure time. For everyday wear, it could be too overpowering thanks to its great projection. Anyone who likes juicy pineapple with floral notes should definitely try it, especially the ladies.
