Description
“Zeeba is a Farsi word meaning beautiful, and was named by my Persian friend, Azita. Zeeba smells of roses grown in honey-golden sunlight, this fragrance induces a deep state of purring contentment. My most lavish perfume to date; here is a stained-glass window of fragrant bliss whose incredible saffron colour comes from the Taif Rose absolute, a creamy, soft and spectacular rose oil blended with leathery Vietnamese oud and Mysore sandalwood. It’s the rare, magical harvests that come along once in a lifetime that leave behind a glow of happiness. It is a glow that endures; filigreed through many amazing memories and encounters. This is one of those treasures. A strictly limited edition.” – a note from the brand.
Zeeba was launched in 2017. The nose behind this fragrance is Teone Reinthal.

the rose-oud combo has been done to death in recent years, however none come close to the subtlety, beauty and delicacy of zeeba compared to others i’ve tried. this is rose-oud done to perfection. dark, almost black, woody, leathery, resinous and ancient depth, studded with the deep, honeyed, tea-like satisfaction of taif. every ingredient is apparent from the opening and each takes the front stage as a complex dance. absolute simplicity revealing multifaceted complexity, the natural materials really shine in this composition. sandalwood is the layer beneath the remains smooth and creamy, the altar upon which these beautiful roses and ancient woods sit. this is a quiet, self-contemplative beauty, for your private moments of reflection.

I’m so excited for this perfume oil. Zeeba is leathery luxe rose which has much pride. Taif Rose scent is warm like Spring, and seems gentle lady who received a honor about peace. Vietnamese Oud is like leather, Soft Mysore sandalwood gives my mind to rich, so it becomes like almost my skin. That’s so simple, calm and really rich. Zeeba gives me sublime feeling.

It can get boring when a blogger discovers a brand and keeps banging on about it ad nauseum. When you discover a brand which really moves you to the core, sometimes you have to just keep sharing!
Zeeba by Teone Reinthal is one of those perfumes which has moved me in this way. Describing it as her most lavish work ever, Teone created this limited edition perfume with “Taif Rose absolute, a creamy soft and spectacular rose oil blended with leathery Vietnamese oud and Mysore sandalwood.” The effect is absolutely sublime. The rose and sandalwood are creamy, soft, sweet and indulgent. The oud offers a dark counterpoint, emphasising and highlighting the beauty of the rose. This is beauty and the beast dancing by moonlight. This is the escaped black stallion set loose amongst the blooms!
We have all smelled rose/oud perfumes, but never have I smelled one this beautiful.
It is simple, it highlights the beauty of each ingredient and it is blended to perfection.
Longevity and sillage are both good. Have no fear that naturals can’t compete with other perfumery when Teone is at the helm.

Zeeba is the most sublimely smooth oud rose composition. A magical potion with deep intensity, and hypnotic qualities, Zeeba is darkly appealing. An Arabic beauty, a shady brunette with dark, intensely alluring eyes. She’s intoxicating in her deep scarlet silks, moving with a shadowy elegance she calls silently but resoundingly from beneath a dusky, crimson rose veil, her cerise lips pursed with the beauty of the luscious ruffled curls of the taif rose. Zeeba beckons with the enchantment of a darkened oud heart. It’s warm, spicy resinous accords exude a beautiful blackened woody warmth as she watches, ever beguiling. Yet this beauty has a nectareous contentment, a contrast to her sultry mien. She has an ethereal opaque sweetness, like detailed leadlight; heavy, dark exotic contours, with a transcendent, honeyed, burgundy stained light that’s almost tangible. Zeeba is mysterious and worthy of superstition… a magnificent piece.
