Zimaya Hayam is a unisex eau de parfum released in 2023.
The composition was created for those who dislike rigid gender boundaries and choose perfume based on their mood, its character and their personal charisma.
The fragrance belongs to Zimaya, a UAE perfume brand whose collection includes women’s, men’s and unisex releases.
Hayam is an especially expressive fragrance for the brand: oriental sensuality meets the freshness of a citrus accord and soft floral expressiveness.
The composition opens with an amber-floral accent.
As it develops, the fragrance becomes more dimensional: the citrus facet adds energy, while animalic nuances make the scent deeper, more sensual and memorable.
In the final stage, a sweet accord gradually blends with musk, leaving a warm, soft and subtly sensual trail on the skin.
Hayam does not strive to be weightless: its character unfolds gradually, moving from a bright opening to a cosier and more alluring base.
Zimaya Hayam is positioned as a unisex perfume, so it may smell different on the skin depending on the temperature, humidity and individual skin chemistry.
On some people, white-floral and citrus nuances will stand out more strongly; on others, sweetness, amber and musky depth will take centre stage.
The fragrance has noticeable sillage: during the first few hours, Hayam confidently makes its presence known, then becomes calmer and closer to the skin.
For an everyday look, 1–2 sprays on the skin are enough; the same amount can be applied to clothing after testing the fabric’s reaction on an inconspicuous area.
In hot weather, it is best to start with a minimal amount, while on a cool evening the composition reveals itself particularly beautifully.
Its amber-floral profile makes the fragrance versatile for autumn, spring and cool summer evenings.
It is suitable for a meeting, a walk, a date or any occasion when you want to add a noticeable yet not overly formal touch to your look.
Hayam will appeal to fans of warm, slightly sweet compositions with a musky trail and a subtle oriental nuance.
This is not a strictly office-friendly everyday fragrance, but a more emotional choice for setting the mood, making a confident impression and enjoying its beautiful development in motion.
If you would like to compare Hayam with other compositions, take a look at Elizabeth Arden Green Tea — a fresher and more transparent option.
Bonanza Satrangi Fareeha and Yas Perfumes Best of Love are also interesting fragrances to explore in this direction.
They can help you understand which facet appeals to you most: citrusy lightness, sweet expressiveness or a sensual trail.
Overall, Zimaya Hayam is a distinctive unisex perfume with a contrasting character.
It combines a fresh impulse, floral softness, sweet amber warmth and musky depth, making it especially appealing to those looking for an expressive scent without being limited by traditional perfume categories.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
