Yusa Aromatics Ghaliyah — a 2024 oriental extrait
Yusa Aromatics Ghaliyah is a unisex fragrance from the British brand Yusa Aromatics, released in 2024.
This extrait de parfum has a distinctive oriental character and was created for those who appreciate rich, deep and noticeable compositions.
The fragrance is not tied to a single gender profile: it can be chosen by both women and men.
Ghaliyah unfolds as a cohesive, dense composition in which musky, woody, floral and animalic facets come together to create a rich olfactory impression.
Notes and composition character
Yusa Aromatics Ghaliyah features black musk, grey amber, iris and oud.
The top, middle and base notes are not listed separately, so the fragrance is best understood as an integrated composition without an artificial division into stages of development.
Black musk forms a sensual, warm and intense foundation, while grey amber gives the composition density and a distinctive animalic nuance.
Iris adds a powdery floral touch, while oud emphasizes Ghaliyah's oriental and woody direction.
Sillage and wearability
According to the fragrance listing, it has very strong sillage.
The extrait develops intensely, making Ghaliyah particularly suitable for those who enjoy noticeable perfumes with a long-lasting presence in the air and a distinctive personal signature.
This format works well in the evening, at formal events, in cool weather and whenever the fragrance is meant to become part of the overall look.
In warm weather and enclosed spaces, it is best to exercise restraint: the precise recommended amount for application to skin and clothing is not specified for this release, so the number of sprays should be adjusted individually.
Its place in the brand's style
Yusa Aromatics Ghaliyah continues the British brand Yusa Aromatics' interest in rich oriental nuances.
Black musk, grey amber, iris and oud meet in a single composition, allowing the fragrance to combine sensuality, powdery softness, woody depth and animalic expressiveness.
The specific collection, perfumer and other concentrations of Ghaliyah are not indicated in the available information.
Therefore, the main points of reference when discovering it are its extrait concentration, oriental styling, unisex positioning and very strong sillage.
