Maksim Perfume YETI is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Rajesh Balkrishnan and Maxim Bortnikov. YETI opens with Pepper, Sichuan Pepper, Cardamom, and Elemi, settles into a heart of Oakmoss, Tea, and Fir Resin, and dries down to a base of Herbal, Sandalwood, Oud, and Guaiac Wood. Maksim Perfume's YETI carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Yeti is a masterpiece of wild, untamed nature, a scent that's both challenging and utterly captivating. It's divisive for its unique use of valerian, but for those who get it, this is a truly exceptional, sophisticated wilderness in a bottle.

Date Casual

Its bold projection and strong animalic nuances make it unsuitable for an office environment. However, its unique and sophisticated character could intrigue on a date, while its overall outdoorsy feel suits casual wear more than formal events, and it's far too intense for sport.

About

Yeti opens with a bracing, electric blast of Sichuan pepper, cardamom, and juniper, creating a 'cold mountain air' sensation that hits you like a high-altitude breeze. This crisp freshness soon gives way to a dense, aromatic heart of fir resin and oakmoss, evoking deep, ancient forests. The journey culminates in a complex base where exotic oud and guaiac wood interlace with the earthy, subtly animalic presence of valerian and sugandha kokila, grounding the ethereal top notes in a rich, almost primal warmth. Throughout, a smoky tea note adds an intriguing, contemplative layer.
