I couldn't choose between the three so I got the set. Berbera turned out to be mine, though Kismaayo was a close second. Having a proper week with each made the decision easy.

Founder's impression
Rayie Musk began with three stretches of the same coastline, and three very different ways to wear it. Berbera is dark and restrained. Kismaayo opens bright and turns warm. Jamaame stays close to the skin.

Perfume is hard to buy blind. A screen cannot tell you how something smells after a number of hours on your skin.
So I made this set. Three ports, three 5ml bottles, enough of each to wear properly for a week before you decide on a full bottle. Take your time with them.

Based on 27 reviews
Jamaame was the one I nearly didn't bother with and it's the one I wear most. Glad I tried all three before committing to a bottle. The packaging is amazing also.
Bought it as a way in and ended up ordering a full bottle a fortnight later. The 5ml bottles are a decent size, enough to actually live with a scent rather than just sniff it.

Before you decide
Questions
Are these original compositions, or copies of other fragrances?
Original. Every fragrance in the house is our own composition, blended for us and made in the UK.
We do not make dupes, clones or 'inspired by' versions of designer scents. Nothing here is built to smell like something you already own.
How long does it last on skin?
Rayie Musk fragrances are made to last from morning till midnight.
Longevity varies more than most brands admit. Warm or oilier skin holds fragrance longer; dry or cool skin holds it less. Applying to pulse points and to skin rather than clothing makes a noticeable difference.
What makes this different from a department store fragrance?
Scale, mostly. These are blended in batches rather than produced by the hundred thousand, and the compositions are ours rather than a house style built by committee.
The practical difference is that you are unlikely to walk into a room and meet three other people wearing it.
How does it change after I put it on?
The opening is the brightest part and it is not the fragrance. Give it twenty minutes.
What settles afterwards is the heart and the base, this is what you and everyone around you will actually be living with for the rest of the day. Judge it then, not at the first spray.
Where should I apply it?
Pulse points: wrists, the base of the throat, behind the ears. Skin holds and develops a fragrance in a way fabric does not.
Two or three sprays is enough. Do not rub your wrists together as it flattens the opening and breaks the scent.
Are they for men or women?
Neither, deliberately. All three are unisex.
They are built around materials that have moved through the ports of the Somali coast for two thousand years - resin, wood, amber, salt air and spice. None of that has a gender.
What is actually in them?
Eau de Parfum, blended and bottled in the UK. The note breakdown for each fragrance sits further up this page.
See the individual fragrance pages for full ingredient breakdown.
What if it is not right for me?
Return it within 30 days. Fragrance is personal and we would rather you found the right one than kept a bottle you do not reach for.
Full terms are on the Shipping and Returns page.
How quickly will it arrive?
UK delivery is free and tracked on every order.
We aim for next day delivery, however in some instances it can be 2 days. See our shipping & returns page for more information.

The Collection
Three coasts. One collection.
Each fragrance in the Rayie Musk collection takes its name from a port on the Somali coast: Berbera on the Gulf of Aden, Kismaayo on the Indian Ocean, Jamaame on the banks of the Jubba River. Three places. Three distinct characters.
The Discovery Set is where the collection begins. Five millilitres of each, enough to wear, to live with, and to find the one that stays.
Find the coast that calls to you.
