About

Zayed 2018 opens with a bold flourish of sweet mandarin and bright bergamot, spiced up by a hint of saffron, before quickly settling into a rich, complex heart. Here, a silken rose entwines with powdery violet, underpinned by the subtle green depth of hedione. As it dries, a powerful woody base emerges, dominated by earthy vetiver, patchouli, and oakmoss, softened by creamy sandalwood and a warm, embracing amber. Some swear they detect a deep, animalic oud.
