Zimaya Fatima Extrait De Parfum

Zimaya Fatima Extrait De Parfum

Overview: Zimaya Fatima Extrait De Parfum is a popular and highly-regarded fragrance from Zimaya, a sub-brand of Afnan Perfumes, a prominent Middle Eastern perfume house based in the UAE. Launched in 2023, it has quickly gained recognition, particularly for being a more affordable “inspired-by” alternative to the popular niche fragrance, Parfums de Marly Delina. Fatima is characterized by its modern Oriental Floral or Floral Fruity profile, with notable fresh, spicy, and woody undertones. It is explicitly marketed for women, embodying a sophisticated, luxurious, and captivating femininity.

Product Type: Extrait de Parfum (Extrait) – a highly concentrated perfume designed for exceptional longevity and sillage, typically the highest concentration available.

Key Benefits:

• Luxurious and sophisticated aroma at a significantly more accessible price point than its niche inspiration.
• Excellent longevity and strong projection, making a significant statement.
• Modern and well-balanced scent profile that is both fresh and warm.
• Elegant packaging reflects its premium feel.
• Often described as a compliment-getter.

Fragrance Family: Oriental Floral / Floral Fruity (with prominent Rose, Citrus, Musky, and Woody facets).

Scent Profile:

• Top Notes: Litchi, Rhubarb, Bergamot, Nutmeg (A vibrant and tart opening with juicy fruit, a unique tartness from rhubarb, bright citrus, and a hint of warm spice from nutmeg). This initial blend contributes to its fresh yet complex introduction.
• Heart Notes: Rose, Peony, Musk, Petalia, Vanilla (A rich and elegant floral bouquet, dominated by the classic romanticism of rose and the soft beauty of peony. Musk and Petalia add a modern, clean, and slightly powdery floral aspect, while vanilla provides a subtle, creamy sweetness).
• Base Notes: Cashmeran, Cedar, Vetiver, Incense (A deep, comforting, and sophisticated dry-down. Cashmeran offers a soft, woody muskiness, cedar provides clean woodiness, vetiver adds an earthy, slightly smoky touch, and incense contributes an alluring, mystical warmth).

Performance:

• Longevity: Excellent (typically 7-12+ hours on skin, and often days on clothing, living up to its Extrait de Parfum concentration). This is one of its most praised attributes.
• Sillage: Strong (creates a noticeable and enveloping scent bubble, leaving a prominent trail). It’s a fragrance that commands attention.
• Projection: Strong initial burst, then a consistent and alluring presence that projects well for hours.

Functionality & Skin Benefits: Primarily a high-performance fragrance for personal scent.

Best For:

• Evening wear, romantic occasions, special events, and formal gatherings.
• Transition seasons (spring and autumn) and cooler weather (winter) where its depth and warmth can truly shine. Its fresh and tart opening also allows it to be worn in milder summer evenings.
• Women who appreciate luxurious, long-lasting, and sophisticated floral fragrances with a touch of fruitiness, spice, and woody depth.
• Those seeking a high-quality alternative to designer/niche rose-fruity fragrances.

Season & Time to Wear: Highly versatile, but performs best in spring, autumn, and winter, and predominantly for evening use. Can be worn during the day for special occasions or when a stronger scent is desired.

Packaging & Design: Zimaya fragrances are known for their appealing and elegant packaging. Fatima Extrait de Parfum typically comes in a sleek, often minimalist bottle with a focus on quality and a sophisticated aesthetic, reflecting its luxurious scent profile. The common variant is often referred to as “Fatima Pink.”

Fragrance Personality: This scent embodies elegance, luxury, and captivating femininity. It’s for a woman who is confident, desires to leave a memorable and sophisticated impression, and appreciates a beautifully blended fragrance that offers both freshness and warmth.
