Growth Marketing Executive

Job description / Role

Who we are

Fueled 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. 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 multifaceted jeweled bottles.

To make everyone feel like the diamond they are! To build a global community of fragrance lovers through the power of scent by providing the most innovative and luxurious fragrances, education, and sharing Middle Eastern fragrance rituals with the world.
