Zimaya Sharaf Blend Extrait de Parfum 100ml is a rich oud oriental fragrance for men and women, produced by Zimaya — a premium sub-brand of Afnan. At Extrait de Parfum concentration, it delivers exceptional longevity and a dry-down that continues to develop for many hours. The character is warm, sweet, and deeply Arabian — saffron and oud at its core, with dates adding an unusual sweetness in the heart and a creamy vanilla and sandalwood base that makes it more approachable than a pure oud fragrance. It is built for those who want an authentic Arabian fragrance experience with maximum staying power.
Top Notes: Saffron, bergamot, cardamom
Heart Notes: Oud, rose, dates
Base Notes: Vanilla, amber, musk, sandalwood
Zimaya Sharaf Blend Extrait opens with saffron, bergamot, and cardamom — a warm, golden opening where the saffron immediately sets the tone. The heart introduces oud, rose, and dates — a rich, sweet, and distinctly Arabian combination that gives the fragrance its defining character. The dates add an unusual sweetness that softens the oud and makes the heart more accessible than many pure oud fragrances. The base settles into vanilla, amber, musk, and sandalwood — creamy, warm, and exceptionally long-lasting.
Zimaya is a premium sub-brand of Afnan, positioned above the main Afnan line in terms of ingredient quality and complexity. The Sharaf Blend reflects the brand’s Arabian heritage directly — saffron, oud, and dates are all central to traditional Middle Eastern perfumery and culture. The use of dates in the heart is particularly distinctive and gives the Sharaf Blend a character that is harder to find in Western fragrance. The fragrance family is oud oriental.
At Extrait de Parfum concentration, longevity is exceptional — expect twelve or more hours on skin, with the oud and vanilla base persisting well into the following day on clothing. Projection is strong on initial application, settling to a moderate sillage after the first hour. One spray is often sufficient. The overall character is rich, warm, and sweet — more approachable than a pure oud fragrance due to the dates and vanilla, but still a serious evening fragrance that rewards restraint in application.
Zimaya Sharaf Blend Extrait 100ml is an autumn and winter evening fragrance. The saffron, oud, and dates combination makes it best suited to special occasions, formal dinners, and evenings where a bold, lasting fragrance is appropriate. It is not suited to daytime professional environments or warm weather.
This fragrance suits confident wearers in their mid-twenties and older who appreciate Arabian-style perfumery and want something with genuine depth and longevity. It is genuinely unisex — the oud and rose combination works on both men and women, and the dates and vanilla base softens it enough to be wearable by those who are new to oud fragrances. It is one of the strongest gifting options in the Afnan/Zimaya catalogue for someone who appreciates traditional Middle Eastern fragrance culture.
