Coriander

The Story
Coriander by Kajal is a bold, spicy fragrance that puts the humble coriander seed front and center. It opens with a burst of pink pepper and coriander, then settles into a warm, resinous heart of olibanum and saffron. The base is a rich blend of leather, oud, and amber that lingers for hours. This is a scent for those who appreciate the unexpected.

Encyclopedia Insights
Does this fragrance actually smell like cilantro?+
No, it's based on coriander seeds, which have a warm, spicy, slightly citrusy aroma—very different from the fresh herb cilantro.
Is this suitable for office wear?+
It's quite bold and projects strongly, so it's better for evenings or cooler weather. A light application might work in a casual office.
How does it compare to other spicy fragrances?+
Coriander is unique because the coriander note is front and center, supported by incense and leather. It's less sweet than many spicy scents and has a dry, resinous character.
