Kayali Fragrance is a brand based in Dubai. It was founded by Mona Kattan, a co-founder of Huda Beauty, and is part of the Huda Beauty group. The brand is known for its luxury perfumes that often feature Middle Eastern-inspired scents and ingredients. This July 2024, it finally arrived and I know where you can buy Kayali Perfume in the Philippines, but first, why is it so popular?
Kayali which means “my imagination” in Arabic, is destined to be popular because the founder Mona Kattan is a well-known influencer from Dubai. However, their opulent scents and layering concept encourage customers to mix and match scents to create a personalized and unique fragrance experience, exquisite bottles, and positive reviews from customers help build trust and enhance the brand’s reputation.
Kayali Fragrance Review and Prices
Unfortunately, not all Kayali Fragrances are available in the Philippines yet. So I am only reviewing those that are currently available that I already tried.
Vanila 28 | Php6000
This is one of the first Kayali Fragrances that I tried. I got a mini bottle for free using my Sephora points. I’ll start by saying that this smells good. I get why this is their best selling scent. I smell vanilla, brown sugar, and Tonka. And the dry down gives that lovely musk scent. However, vanilla is not my type of fragrance. It’s not them, it’s me. I once again got another mini bottle of this from a Kayali set I bought but I gave it to my friend. He said he loves it so much.
Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 | Php6000
This one I consider purchasing a full bottle. It smells like pistachio macaron! And yes, it kinda smells like pistachio ice cream too but my first thought was the macaroon. It is a creamy gourmand but not overly sweet. It’s the kind of smell that makes you feel happy to face the day.
There are three more scents available in the Philippines, but I haven’t tried them yet. My other favorite, the Musk 12 and my mother’s favorite the Citrus 08 are both not yet available. I hope they will be soon because Filipinos will surely love it, especially the citrus.
Where to buy Kayali Perfume in the Philippines?
1. Lazada – The Kayali Lazada listing is under its sister brand, Huda Beauty. I prefer to buy from here because of the double-digit sale, PayDay sale, and stackable voucher.
2. Look At Me – If you want to smell and try a tester before committing to a bottle, you can find Kayali in Look At Me’s stores in SM MOA and SM Aura. But they’re also available in their online store.
