• Heart Notes:

Jasmine, Tuberose, and Caramel

• Base Notes:

Sandalwood, Leather, and Musk

2. What is it a Dupe of?

Zariya is widely recognized as an affordable, high-quality inspiration of Madurai by Memo Paris. It captures a similar DNA centered around creamy white florals and an airy, luxurious sweetness.

3. Men, Women, or Unisex?

While officially marketed as a unisex fragrance (for women and men), the overwhelming community consensus from reviewers on platforms like Fragrantica and TikTok trends leans heavily toward feminine. Its fairy-princess, soft-girl aesthetic comes from the dominant combination of tuberose, sweet apricot, and rich caramel.

4. Season & Occasion:

• Season:

Spring and Summer. The zesty bergamot, herbal sage, and juicy apricot make it clean, uplifting, and breezy enough for warmer weather. However, the warm leather, caramel, and amberwood dry down allow it to transition smoothly into early autumn.

• Occasion:

Incredibly versatile. It is light and polished enough for daytime wear, office settings, brunch, and casual outings. Simultaneously, the sultry undertones of leather and sandalwood give it enough elegance for formal events or dates.

5. Projection & Longevity:

• Projection:

Moderate to Strong. It avoids filling an entire room in a cloying way, instead forming an airy, elegant "scent bubble" around you that leaves a distinct, beautiful trail (sillage) as you walk by.

• Longevity:

Long-lasting. It holds up well throughout the day, shifting from a sparkling, fruity opening into a creamy, powdery, and expensive-smelling skin scent hours later.
