A letter from our founders

Nestled in the heart of the Wild Coast in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, Zayya Fragrance is more than just a perfumery – it’s a tribute to the serene beauty and relaxed pace of coastal living. Our mission is simple: to infuse contemporary living with scents that resonate deeply, creating subtle yet profoundly surprising experiences.

Our Coastal Inspiration
Every fragrance we create is inspired by the natural splendor of the Wild Coast – its salty breezes, stunning sunsets, and rich flora and fauna. Imagine the calming scent of sea air, the invigorating aroma of indigenous coastal plants, and the refreshing hint of ocean spray. These elements come together in our perfumes to evoke a sense of place and peace, bringing a touch of the coast into your daily life.

Maximalist Scent. Minimalist Design
At Zayya, minimalism is at the heart of our ethos. We believe in ‘Maximalist Scent. Minimalist Design.’ This philosophy guides us as we curate product designs that are both stylish and functional, letting our unique scents and formulations take center stage. Our minimalist approach ensures that each product is a seamless addition to your lifestyle, embodying both elegance and simplicity.

Sustainable and Local
We are unwavering in our commitment to excellence, using the world’s finest fragrance oils and adhering to small-batch production methods. We source our ingredients sustainably and locally whenever possible, ensuring that our products are kind to the environment and supportive of the local community. This dedication to quality and sustainability is reflected in the unparalleled experience of using our products.

A Transformative Experience
For us, fragrance isn’t just a scent; it’s an expression of personality and style. It’s the aura that fills a room, sparks cherished memories, and weaves an instant ambiance into the air. We’re passionate believers in the transformative power of scent and how it can enhance life in unexpected ways.

Elevate Every Moment
At Zayya, we believe that every moment deserves to be elevated by the captivating power of fragrance. As passionate fragrance enthusiasts ourselves, we’ve set out to create a collection of sophisticated scents that transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. Inspired by the visceral allure of the world’s most coveted perfumes, we’ve meticulously crafted our Designer-Inspired Eau de Parfums to capture the essence of luxury without the designer price tag. Each bespoke fragrance is a celebration of nature’s finest ingredients, expertly blended in small batches to deliver a sensory experience that uplifts and inspires.
