Zilzal: A New Woody Oriental from RMK Perfumes

RMK Perfumes introduces Zilzal, a fragrance for men and women launching in 2026. Created by Shadi Samra and Rashid Mana Al Maktoum, it belongs to the woody oriental olfactory family.

Zilzal opens with bergamot, violet, and rose, offering a fresh yet powdery start. These top notes quickly give way to a richer, more complex heart where cashmere wood, caramel, cypriol, styrax, and oud take center stage.

The heart is both creamy and smoky, a juxtaposition that defines the fragrance's character. Caramel adds a subtle, dark sweetness, while the oud and styrax bring depth and a balsamic edge, making the composition feel modern and grounded.

In the base, gaiac wood, sandalwood, castoreum, vanilla, civet, and musk create a lasting foundation. The animalic and woody notes add warmth and sensuality, while vanilla and sandalwood provide a smooth, slightly powdery finish.

Zilzal's main accords are musky, woody, oud-driven, powdery, rosy, amber-like, animalic, violety, caramel-sweet, and floral. It’s a multifaceted scent that evolves beautifully on the skin, shifting from a gentle floral opening to a bold, resinous drydown.

As a new release for 2026, Zilzal showcases RMK Perfumes' commitment to crafting expressive oriental scents that appeal to contemporary fragrance lovers.

This fragrance will appeal to those who love intense woody orientals with a bold animalic streak. It's suited for evening wear, colder months, and anyone who wants a perfume that commands attention and leaves a memorable trail.

Zilzal is a striking addition to the RMK Perfumes lineup. It balances caramel sweetness and creamy woods with the raw power of oud and animalic notes, making it a compelling choice for adventurous noses.
