Update 03/14/23: The official Kayali Pistachio Gelato release date is March 21, 2023.
The Queen Mona Kattan of Kayali Perfume said “Pistachio Gelato is my weakness!!” Could this be a teaser of a new Kayali Perfume release for 2023? Could this be the best new Kayali perfume?
Introducing Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 Intense Eau De Parfum.
In July of 2022, Mona from Huda Beauty uploaded a Youtube short titled “Pistachio Gelato is my weakness!!”.
Could this be a hint of what is to come soon for Kayali fans?
The caption on her YouTube short reads “I’m back to Dubai!! And thinking of restarting Keto! European food was just soooo good. Pistachio Gelato is my weakness!! What’s your favorite dessert my loves?”.
In the Youtube short Mona is showing a bunch of snacks and continues to flick them off the table and she said she is trying to restart Keto.
Mona Kattan is the brain behind and founder of Kayali Perfumes that was launched in November 2018. Kayali means “my imagination” in Arabic.
Mona started her love affair with perfumes when she was 14 and now she has an amazing fragrance library.
From a $2,000 bottle of perfume, to designer fragrances, to niche perfumes, to body mists – you name it, she’s got it and her collection is still expanding. She said she buys about a hundred per month!
Blind Buying Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33
Last night I was browsing a shopping site (Mercari) and I came across Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 Intense EDP.
I thought to myself maybe this is a fake. I’d never heard of it before.
I have and love Kayali Vanilla 28. I consider it the best Kayali perfume to date.
I also just picked up Vanilla Royale Sugared Patchouli 64 in a 100 ml bottle and I am obsessed. This is one of the Kayali perfume best sellers.
I layer them both together and the smell is intoxicating. Needless to say, I am a Kayali fan.
And I also love the Kayali Sweet Diamond Pink Pepper.
But I digress, so I saw the Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 Intense and I did some quick research and couldn’t find anything about it.
I also contacted Huda Beauty, Kayali’s Facebook page, and Mona’s Youtube channel about this perfume but have yet to receive a response.
The only thing I found was Mona’s YouTube short about a Pistachio Gelato and I thought to myself “Whoa, I wonder if Kayali is launching a new perfume!”
So I took the plunge and bought it blindly. That is what I do anyway, 80% of my perfume collection is blind bought, some successful, some were failures.
I cannot wait to get a hold of the Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 Intense and will give it a more complete review when I do (skip directly to my review of the smell!).
Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 Intense Eau De Parfum has notes of:
- Pistachio Gelato
- Hazelnut
- Sweet Rum
- Whipped Cream
- Marshmallow
- Cotton Candy
Now if that doesn’t sound like the most delicious gourmand perfume, I don’t know what is! Edible and mouth watering perfume at its finest.
Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 sounds creamy from the whipped cream, sweet and fluffy from the marshmallow, buttery and nutty from the pistachio, lactonic from the whipped cream with hints of vanilla and sugar from the cotton candy.
A sweet, milky nutty gelato goodness in a perfume when you do not want to have calories.
All I know is that it might be coming out very soon and it is in a beautiful pistachio green Kayali box and it is a green bottle with a white cap and it comes in 100ml.
Kayali Pistachio Gelato 33 was modified 33 times to reach the perfect formula.
Kay Ali has released 11 perfumes so far and Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 Intense would be her 12th release.
A picture of Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 Intense will be uploaded here as soon as I have it (update: see below)!

- Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 – 2023
How does it smell? I’ve got the bottle and spent a few days smelling it. See my updated review below for details!
How does the Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato Smell? A Review.
As promised, here is an update about the Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33!!
Look at this beauty! I know a lot of you are dying to know what the juice is like inside the beautiful bottle.
If this Kayali Pistachio Gelato perfume really is coming out, OMG! I am beyond excited! I read somewhere that it will be launched this April, but I don’t know if this is in fact correct.
But there was another hint recently in one of Mona’s newest Youtube videos. She did a full face glam challenge using marshmallows as a makeup sponge! Gasp! Whatttt? Is this another clue?
Mona’s disclaimer said she used expired marshmallows with this challenge but then proceeded to eat one. LOL. How creative and fun though! I had a feeling that using marshmallows to apply makeup won’t get the job done but she did it like a pro!
She already has a goddess face and the Huda Beauty makeup palettes she used, they are bomb!
Now, what you’re probably dying to hear about are my thoughts on this new Huda Beauty perfume scent.
In the opening, I get a green note that smells fresh and it has a hint of sweetness. The freshness also smells herbal to me.
I also get the pistachio note that is a little alcoholic, it is very prominent. It reminds me of pistachio extract or almond extract or maybe it is the sweet rum.
At first, I was disappointed with the opening and thought this must be fake, it made me sneeze (which the Vanilla 28 does as well).
But be patient and wait for it to dry down. Some of the Kayali perfumes in my experience do not wow you in the beginning, however, when they dry down, when they get to sit for a bit, they are absolutely magic!
The dry down for me is a sweet, dense, ooey gooey pistachio gelato. It is very sweet but not cloying. And did I say dense? The freshness that I am talking about earlier cuts through the sweetness.
I am not sure what other notes there are but what stood out to me were the pistachio gelato, marshmallow, whipped cream and cotton candy. The cotton candy makes it extra sweet.
Gelato has a lower fat content than that of a traditional ice cream and here is where the major ingredient becomes the star. Pistachio. Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato is aptly named.
Mona and her team captured the essence of a pistachio gelato and it is absolutely delectable. Just try to keep the perfume off your wrist or else you might bite into it. It is intoxicating.
The longevity on my skin is gone after the first hour, then it becomes a skin scent. The longevity on my clothing lasted about 3-5 hours and it projected mostly for the first hour.
I am not very impressed considering how much I paid for this perfume. But then again if I let my bottle sit for a while it might get stronger and maybe it will last longer.
New Kayali Perfume Best Seller?
If this really is the newest Kayali perfume of 2023, try it out and you won’t be disappointed, especially for all the gourmand lovers out there.
It is a high-end, scrumptious-smelling, gourmand perfume that will appeal even to non-gourmand fans.
Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 is a sweet and gourmand fragrance that captures the essence of a sweet, rich, creamy and indulgent pistachio gelato. It evokes the sensation of indulging in a delicious and creamy pistachio gelato. Perfect for those who appreciate sweet and gourmand scents.
So what’s next for Mona? Are we going to get any more hints? Will she be lying in a tub full of whipped cream or a cotton candy challenge? Whatever it is, I love it. I am here for it.
I am already salivating just talking about all these sweets. Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato 33 will be the first true gourmand in the Kayali collection, it really is a special treat.
