La Yuqawam
La Yuqawam by Rasasi is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2016 in the premium price tier. It opens with bergamot and saffron, moves into leather, oud and rose and dries down to amber, musk and vanilla. Expect around 11 hours of wear, and it projects very strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
Heart
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Dry-down
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
