Description
Malikat al-Layal – 2 Gram Attar by Perito Moreno
Crafted by Nitish Dixit
Notes: Night Blooming Jasmine (Parijat), Aged Civet Base (in-house)
Malikat al-Layal is a bold, indolic floral attar built around a single flower—Night Blooming Jasmine, also known as Parijat. This is not a bouquet or a soft, ambient jasmine accord. It’s a focused portrait of one of the most intoxicating flowers found in nature, paired with an aged civet base that deepens its emotional impact.
The opening is unapologetically floral. You’re hit immediately with the thick, creamy, almost narcotic note of blooming Parijat. This isn’t jasmine the way most people expect it. It’s not clean or decorative. It’s wild, sultry, and full-bodied—what perfumers refer to as indolic, meaning it carries that unmistakable human skin quality underneath its petals.
This note is hard to work with. In less experienced hands, it can turn sharp or overly animalic. But here, it’s carefully anchored using an aged civet base developed in-house over years. The civet doesn’t dominate. It supports the Parijat, creating a soft shadow underneath the flower—giving it warmth, weight, and a sense of time.
Mr. Nitish Dixit built this attar in a single, uninterrupted session. That decision came from deep familiarity with the materials. He understood how the Parijat oil would shift over hours, how it would respond to skin, and how much civet would be enough to extend the bloom without disturbing its clarity. There are no distractions, no extra ingredients. Just pure jasmine in full bloom, wrapped in an animalic aura.
This attar is for someone who isn’t afraid of intensity. It’s not meant to be polite. It’s made for moments of reflection, solitude, or bold presence. If you enjoy fragrances that challenge the idea of what floral can be—and you’re drawn to the complexity of natural materials—Malikat al-Layal will speak to you.
