Zimaya Crysta Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Crysta Oud opens with Grapefruit, Oud, Rose, and Incense, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Pink Pepper, Cardamom, and Ginger, and dries down to a base of Musk, Saffron, Benzoin, and Raspberry. Zimaya's Crysta Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper dark horse. Crysta Oud takes a classic rose-oud combo and gives it a modern twist that manages to be both familiar and surprising. It's a challenging wear for some, a hidden gem for others, but rarely boring.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong projection and significant longevity, this scent is a bit too much for the office. It truly shines for dates and formal events, reflecting its sophisticated and bold character, while being a bit too heavy for casual daytime wear or sport.

About

Crysta Oud kicks off with a sharp, smoky entrance of rose, oud, and incense, swiftly met by the invigorating kick of juniper and grapefruit. As it settles, a fresh, spicy heart of ginger, mint, and cardamom provides a camphorous edge, interwoven with delicate jasmine. The dry down is a rich tapestry of musky raspberry, saffron, and sweet benzoin, wrapped in a smooth, approachable amber-oud backdrop.
