Zimaya Ghayath is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Ghayath opens with Bergamot, Geranium, and Coriander, settles into a heart of Iris, Cinnamon, Clove, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Oud, and Oakmoss. Zimaya's Ghayath carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

This is a seriously confident, unapologetically masculine scent. A total steal for a niche-quality leather and oud fragrance, Ghayath is a dark and complex blend that isn't for the faint of heart, but those who 'get it' absolutely rave about its mature, sexy vibe.

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
Also Works:
Spring

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong projection and distinctive leather-oud profile, Ghayath is best suited for formal events and dates where a bold statement is desired. It's too much for casual wear and definitely not for sport, but could work in a formal office setting if applied sparingly.

About

Ghayath opens with a fresh, peppery kick from coriander and geranium, quickly giving way to a rich, dominant leather accord. Spices like cinnamon, clove, and saffron add warmth, while iris offers a subtle powdery elegance. The dry down is deep and animalic with a strong oud and oakmoss base, evoking a grand, old-world charm.
