Kazimi is a deeply earthy, unisex oriental rose fragrance that leans masculine and bold, with a complex natural composition. It opens with wild roses, spiced ginger, and woody cedar, creating an intense herbal, balsamic, and slightly animalic profile. The scent evolves into a rich, smoky, mossy base marked by oud, hyrax, ambergris, and opoponax, giving it a dark, almost ceremonial quality. While described as elegant and refined by some, its performance is inconsistent, with many noting poor longevity and minimal projection beyond the first hour. The experience is highly skin chemistry-dependent—some find it captivatingly deep and modern, while others perceive it as thin, muddy, or even burnt, particularly if the delivery was compromised. Its striking identity and immersive aroma make it a memorable choice for lovers of dark, untraditional rose scents, especially those drawn to earthy, nature-inspired fragrances.
