The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2009 by Xerjoff and crafted by perfumer Jacques Flori, Dhajala is an Oriental Floral fragrance that seamlessly blends citrus brightness with rich amber warmth. The opening notes of orange and bergamot bring a fresh, green vibrancy, while the heart notes of rose and jasmine add depth and complexity. Resin and musk in the base create a sensuous backdrop, allowing the sweet vanilla to linger. Dhajala is a composition that evolves gracefully from morning freshness to evening warmth.
Apply Dhajala lightly at first; it blooms gradually over time. The citrus top notes are fleeting but bright, while the base of resin and musk builds slowly, making it perfect for layering under a jacket or cardigan.
