Shiyaaka Rose Gold presents a lighter, more playful floral experience but with a synthetic edge that is not for everyone.

This TikTok darling is a floral bomb, adored by many for its rich scent and surprisingly fruity twist on some skins. Others find it a bit too mature or 'great nan's house,' so definitely not for everyone. If you love florals, especially ylang-ylang, this could be your new signature scent.
This perfume is a divisive one - some find it a delightful, budget-friendly floral with a playful twist, while others are put off by its perceived artificiality and comparisons to cheaper scents. It's a bit like Marmite, you'll either love it as a casual daily wear or find it a bit, well, 'meh'.
