About this item
Half the materials in Ajmal Serenity In Me are named as categories rather than actual ingredients, bergamot and citrus bringing the top a clean, bright lift with nothing sharpening it. Patchouli then holds the core entirely alone, earthy and dark, a considerable shift from the brightness above and the only real event in the composition. A spicy accord finishes it, warm and dry, softening the patchouli into something comfortable. Construction this bare is unusual outside the literalist houses, and it works here because patchouli is a material with enough complexity of its own to carry a middle stage without any help. Serenity In Me is an aromatic Eau de Parfum, best suited to reliable, everyday occasions. That balance is exactly what makes Serenity In Me work.
