If you are a Cambodi fan, you cannot pass on owning one of these. The rarest of the rare, premium stuff. Stronger than any Cambodi blend I've ever owned. Incredible depth and unfurls for hours. Extreme longevity. A triumph.
Crimson Cambodia bursts open with a vibrant chorus of red fruits: cherry, raspberry, strawberry, blueberry, and a tart ribbon of blackcurrant. It is jubilant but not cloying, the kind of fruitiness that feels ripe and mature, not candy-sweet. As the brightness subsides, the composition deepens, the juicy notes tethered by aged patchouli, rayong, and the noble density of Koh Kong. What lingers is a dignified interplay of blackcurrant and cambodi oud, a whisper of fruit woven into smoky, resinous wood. The result is a fragrance that feels exuberant in its opening, yet solemn and commanding in its drydown. It is fruit with gravitas, a fragrance that wears like a velvet cloak of color and shadow. Long wear.
The opening of Qinan Rose greets you with a delicate yet commanding breeze of Taifi rose, crisp, airy. Almost immediately, the star of the composition, the rare qinan, unfurls with a depth that is at once grounding and luminous. Its resinous warmth elevates the floral into something spiritual, contemplative, and rare. The scent wears with remarkable longevity. It recalls childhood Ramadan iftars where the air is heavy with incense and anticipation, or the tranquil presence of an elder reciting Qur’an: dignified, serene, yet luminous with hidden emotion.
This is not just a rose fragrance; it is addictive, a meditation in scent, a Kinami masterpiece. I anticipate it will be a new instant cult favorite.
What can i say that wasn’t already said?
If you’re a fan of Kodo sessions then this is for you.
Incense, rose and a beautiful base as always. To my nose the opening is almost like smelling incense while being surrounded by roses, the white rose otto is so beautiful and crisp, the superior quality of the otto used is very clear. As for the base it’s just magnificent the Taifi is there and the papaun oud also, i can pick them up individually and also as a single note at the same time! I guess thats the magic of the two souls melange that was used here.
