Huda and Mona Kattan are pretty unstoppable right now
Kayali, the brainchild of Huda and Mona Kattan is basically the Middle East in a bottle. If, like us, you love to lather and layer up your fragrances, Kayali will strike a chord with you. Meaning ‘my imagination’ in Arabic, the Kattan sisters have created four distinct scents: Elixir, Vanilla, Musk and Citrus which are designed to be mixed and matched according to your sense of scent.

Mona Kattan explains: “Personalisation is a growing movement and this concept empowers people to express their unique tastes and individuality. Bespoke beauty is something we’re very passionate about and Kayali is all about discovering your own unique fragrance.” Huda adds, “The sense of smell is the most powerful of all the senses, and so many of my memories are tied to a specific scent. I can reflect back to a time and place in my mind when I smell a certain fragrance – it just has the power to transport me. What we wanted to achieve with Kayali is a fragrance collection that invites exploration and creativity, to create scents that are truly their own.”
