Parfum d'Empire Aziyade is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Marc-Antoine Corticchiato. Aziyade opens with Date, Orange, Almond, and Plum, settles into a heart of Caraway, Cardamom, Cinnamon, and Ginger, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Tobacco. Parfum d'Empire's Aziyade carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Aziyade by Parfum d'Empire is a seriously divisive scent. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans adoring its spicy, fruity complexity and others recoiling from its notorious cumin note that smells like body odour. Definitely not a blind buy.

About

Exploding with a fizzy, cola-like sweetness from plump dates, pomegranate, and orange, Aziyade quickly morphs into an intoxicating heart of warm ginger, cardamom, and a pronounced, often polarising cumin. The drydown settles into a rich, sensual base of sweet vanilla, smoky incense, and earthy patchouli, creating an alluringly complex aroma that's equal parts sweet, spicy, and subtly animalic.
