Zimaya Mazaaj is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Mazaaj opens with Pepper, Sichuan Pepper, and Caramel, settles into a heart of Musk, Patchouli, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Oak and Amber. Zimaya's Mazaaj carries a Statement verdict, a caramel-led wear.

Mazaaj is a divisive beast: some hail it as a unique, cheap thrill with surprising longevity, while others find its peppery caramel combination unbalanced and even headache-inducing. It's a bold, unusual choice that won't please everyone, but for those who get it, it's a solid win.

About

Walk into a bustling spice market shrouded in a sweet, sticky haze. Zimaya’s Mazaaj opens with a sharp, exhilarating burst of black and Sichuan pepper, quickly softened by a rich, gooey caramel note. As it settles, warm cinnamon and earthy patchouli emerge, grounding the sweetness before a robust, dry oak note takes centre stage, wrapped in a smooth amber embrace. It's a complex dance of sweet, spicy, and woody elements.
