Launched in 2017 by Thameen and crafted by perfumer Alexandre Illan, Kiani is a woody spicy fragrance that balances freshness with warmth. The composition opens with the bright zest of citron and sage, giving way to elemi and green bell pepper for an unexpected layer of complexity. A heart of lavender and ginger adds herbal spiciness before settling into a base of cedar, vetiver, sandalwood, guaiac wood, and musk that reads as earthy and grounding.

Application Tips
Apply Kiani to your pulse points for a gradual build-up that allows each layer to unfold. The bright top notes are short-lived but make way for the warm base notes within an hour, so reapply if you want to extend its presence throughout the day.
