The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Sawlaj by Kajal was launched in 2017 and crafted by Christian Carbonnel, offering a rich blend of warm spices, earthy woods, and subtle florals. The composition opens with the bright freshness of lemon and bergamot, which gives way to a heart of carnation and jasmine, blending seamlessly into a base of patchouli, leather, and vanilla. This fragrance is neither overly sweet nor too heavy, striking a balance that makes it appealing for both men and women.

How to wear it

Sawlaj has a strong base that takes time to develop fully on the skin. For best results, apply two sprays and allow it to settle for about 15 minutes before heading out. The fragrance is more effective when worn closer to the skin rather than sprayed in the air.
