Oscar

by Imran Fazlani

Zimaya Oscar is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Imran Fazlani. Oscar opens with Clary Sage, Cardamom, and Orange, settles into a heart of Pepper, Caramel, Incense, and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Musk. Zimaya's Oscar carries an Acquired verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This is a seriously impressive scent for the price, a real crowd-pleaser that punches well above its weight. While some find it derivative, for most, it's a 'no-brainer' blind buy that delivers compliments and a surprising level of sophistication.

About

Prepare for a bright, zesty opening of clary sage and orange, quickly softened by a warm, buttery caramel. This sweetness is beautifully balanced by the subtle warmth of Tonka bean and a hint of smoky incense. As it settles, a clean, musky vetiver provides a smooth, grounded finish, preventing it from becoming overly sweet. It's a journey from vibrant citrus to a rich, aromatic dry down.
