On April Fools' Day, Kayali teased Kitten Musk | 41, and although the fragrance concept was shared as a joke, the response from the fragrance brand's community was serious, and now, Boujee Kitty Caramel Milk | 22 is available for pre-order. "Inspired by my love for caramel, I wanted to create the ultimate gourmand fragrance with salted caramel, caramel milk and caramel santal that felt rich, creamy, comforting and completely addictive," said Mona Kattan, Founder and CEO of Kayali.
Creamy, indulgent Boujee Kitty Caramel Milk | 22 is a triple-dose caramel fragrance that also weaves in notes of rich white chocolate and vanilla caviar, and promises to smell near-edible when it dries. Naturally, this Kayali launch lends itself to layering, pairing with other fruity, musky, sweetly scented releases from the brand.
