The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Silver Shade by Ajmal, launched in 2012, is a sophisticated blend of aromatic and fruity notes that creates a distinctive olfactory experience. The fragrance opens with bright citrus accords from lime, bergamot, and lemon, which are balanced by the rich sweetness of black currant and plum. As it settles, the heart reveals floral nuances of violet leaf, iris, rose, and jasmine, providing an elegant contrast to the fruity top notes. The base notes of white musk, ambergris, cedar, sandalwood, civet, and tonka bean add a warm, powdery depth that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Silver Shade develops best with time, so apply it lightly and allow at least an hour for the base notes to fully integrate. It pairs well with light outerwear but can also be worn close to the skin for a more intimate experience.
