Sometimes you need a little distance from certain things...
Hello everyone,
today I would like to (finally) say something about the Private Blend: Hailam Kilam.
To be honest, it's frightening how certain fragrance impressions change and "sharpen"..., shortly after the release in 2024 I got a remaining bottle of Private Blend: Hailam Kilam and if I'm absolutely honest (as always) .... because somehow I didn't like it at all.
Over and over again and for months, the fragrance gave me the impression of a kebab shop. Why and why, I have no idea and today, after almost a year and after some distance to it, I recognize soooo much more and I absolutely understand why many celebrate it so much!
Before I come to the things that I perceive, I have to say something in advance 23/ 24 rather 23 was the starting signal for me that I was slowly drawn to EO and maybe I wasn't ready yet or even overwhelmed - possible.
By the way, when it's currently almost 30°C, it might not make the most sense to talk about such a fragrance..., but maybe it does ;)
The fragrance is musk based and it's nonsense not to admit that, there are of course notes like the blackberry, the tea, the oud, or big striking but the beautiful part of the sandalwood, but at the end of the day it's a musk fragrance, DOT!
This musk is special, because in combination with the sandalwood this fragrance creates a cloak, a light scarf or a wrap that surrounds you = this is sheer madness!
Certainly you notice a gentle oud impact towards the end, just as tea greets you as an accessory, but these notes such as rose, jasmine, pepper and the listed clove are in the 2nd or 3rd row in my opinion
The sheer longevity of the Private Blend: Hailam Kilam is its greatest strength in my opinion, because those absurdly CRASS, when I name my EO's that have a similar longevity, we are talking about the Tigerwood: Terengganu , the Tigerwood Royale and the Homeros Attar , although the last two don't necessarily count as they are highly concentrated attars.
In fall / winter I see absolutely perfect time for the Private Blend: Hailam Kilam and PLEASE dose it carefully, because there is a very fine line between cool and overloaded, in the sense of too dense, heavy and annoying for everyone including you = that's why sometimes less is more ;)
If you are a lover of (real) musk fragrances, or love quality, or the pure POWER, or you just like it (there are not too many bottles), then try it out - PLEASE!
Personally, I'm incredibly happy that I finally have it again and have given it a second chance, so to speak.
And now have a nice day/evening, or whatever you read this review, LG Benny
