Job description

Company Overview

Fuelled by passion, KAYALI was founded in 2018 by beauty mogul and fragrance fanatic, Mona Kattan. Translating to ‘my imagination’ in Arabic, KAYALI provides a modern fragrance experience inspired by Mona’s rich Middle Eastern heritage and the art of layering scents to help you create your mood; where sharing scents is a ritual and smelling good is both an act of goodwill and self‑love. Mona collaborates with some of the world’s most renowned perfumers and sources the finest ingredients to create unique juices that are infinitely memorable, long‑lasting, and cruelty‑free. Each luxurious fragrance is an ode to true craftsmanship and tells a special story, from the addictive notes to the multi‑faced jewel‑dipped bottles. Our mission is to make everyone feel like the diamond they are and to build a global community of fragrance lovers through the power of scent by providing them with the most innovative and luxurious fragrances, education, and sharing our Middle Eastern fragrance rituals with the world.
