    What do reviewers say about Kalemat Black and Nawaf?

    Kalemat Black is bold and unapologetic in its composition. It's not soft, and it doesn't pretend to be. Vanilla, incense, and deep oud create a fragrance that demands attention.Kalemat Black
    The saffron oud opening is confrontational, sharp, almost metallic, the kind of thing that either hooks you immediately or makes you reconsider. If that sounds like a warning, it shouldn't.Nawaf
