The fragrance belongs to the Privé Lelas collection and combines floral, fruity and woody facets.
It was released by the Turkish fragrance house Lelas, founded in Istanbul in 2016.
The brand builds its aesthetic on a fusion of perfumery, modern technology and Eastern temperament, which is why Shayma comes across as an emotional, striking release with character.
Although Lelas Shayma is positioned as a unisex perfume, its rich white-floral side will especially appeal to those who enjoy tuberose and honeyed accords.
This is not a quiet background scent: its very strong sillage makes it an impressive choice for evenings, special occasions or cool weather, when the composition unfolds with greater volume and feels more comfortable.
The composition smells dense, rounded and slightly vintage, while its woody nuance adds structure and keeps the sweetness from becoming flat.
On the skin, the fragrance gradually shifts from a bright floral opening to a rich heart, then becomes warmer and softer.
The final stage leaves a long-lasting honeyed-woody trail, making Shayma easy to recognize in a room and well suited to lovers of expressive perfumery.
Because of its high intensity, the exact recommended amount for application to skin and clothing is not specified in the available data.
It is best to start with the minimum number of sprays and assess how it develops on your own skin: on fabric, the fragrance may last longer and smell more pronounced, so particular care is important.
It will suit those looking not for a universal “clean” scent, but for a noticeable fragrance persona to match a mood, a confident entrance and a beautiful trail.
In terms of mood, Shayma can be compared with Dior Poison, Givenchy Amarige and Rochas Mystere de Rochas, primarily because of its dense floral character and pronounced sweetness.
At the same time, Lelas offers its own interpretation of this style: more modern, Eastern and centered on the contrast between fruit, white flowers and a woody base.
The perfumer behind this release is not identified in the available information, nor are there details about other Shayma concentrations.
Nevertheless, the composition confidently reflects Lelas’s DNA: it is bright, sensual and created for those who love it when a fragrance becomes part of their image rather than merely a barely perceptible finishing touch.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The top notes of Lelas Shayma open with a combination of gardenia and plum. This duo gives the fragrance a lush floral and juicy fruity character at the same time.
The heart of the composition brings together carnation, tuberose and violet.
Tuberose adds volume and creamy white-floral intensity, carnation contributes a spicy facet, while violet softens the scent with a light powdery nuance.
The base is built around honey and rosewood, also known as palisander. The warm honeyed accord makes the dry-down sweet and enveloping, while the woody note lends it depth and lasting power.
Overall, the olfactory pyramid belongs to the floral, fruity and woody families, with a pronounced sweet and white-floral accent. The development is rich, contrasting and leaves a noticeable trail.
