Noor Oud

Zimaya Noor Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. The fragrance opens with Rose and Saffron, settles into a heart of Oud, and dries down to a base of Praline, Amber, and Vanilla.

Our verdict on Noor Oud: Acquired

This one's a divisive oud-rose hit. If you're after a sweet, warm, vanilla-forward oud experience with serious staying power, Noor Oud delivers. But don't expect a carbon copy of its pricier cousins - some find its saffron a bit too punchy.

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its significant projection and strong, sweet, oriental profile make it less suited for an office environment. However, these same qualities, especially the rose and vanilla combination, ensure it's a show-stopping choice for dates and formal events. It's a bit much for everyday casual wear, but can certainly elevate an evening out.

About

Noor Oud opens with a rich, almost boozy swirl of sweet saffron and a velvety rose. This quickly deepens into a warm, inviting heart of soft, non-animalic oud, expertly blended to avoid overwhelming. As it dries, a luxurious praline-vanilla sweetness emerges, wrapped in golden amber, creating an addictive, lingering trail that's both complex and comforting. It's a sweet, woody oriental that truly shines in its later stages.
