Zimaya Sharaf Blend is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Imran Fazlani. Sharaf Blend opens with Date, Nutmeg, and Saffron, settles into a heart of Tuberose, Vanilla, and Praline, and dries down to a base of Musk, Tonka Bean, Benzoin, and Amberwood. Zimaya's Sharaf Blend carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a gorgeous, crowd-pleasing scent, though it's spawned a thousand debates about which Middle Eastern gourmand it clones best. Don't overthink it, just embrace the sweet, boozy warmth and prepare for compliments. A beast-mode performer, so go easy on the trigger.

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 winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and intense sweetness make it less suitable for the office. It shines brightest on dates and formal evenings, where its sensual, warm aura can truly be appreciated. Best reserved for colder weather, as its heavy profile can be overwhelming in warmer temperatures.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Sharaf Blend opens with an inviting burst of sweet dates, spiced with saffron and nutmeg, instantly bringing to mind autumnal baking. This gives way to a creamy heart of praline, lush tuberose, and rich vanilla, creating a decadent, almost edible aroma. The dry-down settles into a sensual base of warm amberwood, tonka bean, and musk, leaving a lingering trail of sophisticated sweetness.
