Zimaya Yaa Umree is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Yaa Umree opens with Musk, Jasmine, and Vanilla, settles into a heart of Salt, Ylang-Ylang, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Mandarin and Sandalwood. Zimaya's Yaa Umree carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

A truly impressive budget buy, Yaa Umree is a creamy, salty floral that punches well above its weight. It's a crowd-pleasing, uplifting scent, though some find the lactonic notes a bit too much. The hype is real for this one.

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.

About

Yaa Umree opens with a heady mix of jasmine and soft musk, quickly joined by a delicate lily of the valley. A distinctive salty note interplays with creamy ylang-ylang, creating an almost lactonic, tropical feel. The dry down settles into a warm, powdery vanilla and sandalwood, with a surprising hint of mandarin keeping things fresh until the end.
