This oud scent wanders between different worlds. It can be worn in the same way in summer and winter, but in a different way with a different effect.
The fragrance opens with masculine-tart lavender and fruity saffron as well as lots of oud. A few spicy notes emerge over the course of the fragrance, but mainly oud. The presence of lavender continues to decrease.
The oud is a typical Kemi-Oud. Unrestricted animalism. The muff notes are suppressed by the other ingredients so that they are not disturbing. Therefore I assume that the spicy notes are not supposed to determine the character of the perfume, but only cancel this muff note. The result is an authentic, beguilingly anal oud without the olfactory characteristics that are often ridiculed by western noses as a stable smell.
The fragrances are in their combination rather sweet than tart. Which means that you can also wear this fragrance in summer - who would have thought it? Due to the tart character and the saffron it even cools down a little.
In winter the perfume has a completely different effect. It's still not sweet, but the bewitching animalism of the oud has a completely different effect. It's no longer cooling at all, but warming instead. The lavender doesn't feel cool anymore, but like a warm lavender tea, whose scented vapour rises into the nose. Warming and quite round.
Overall, I have the impression that Kemi Hayat is going in a similar direction to the XerJoff Alexandria series. Only without Rose and instead with a clearly more present and beguiling Oud.
Durability and sillage are well above average, definitely more Extrait de Parfum than Eau de Parfum level.
Conclusion:
Animalistic year-round oud with undreamt-of qualities. My new lavender scent. Intoxicating and sensual at the same time. Recommended to buy. Cheers!
