Shiyaaka is Khadlaj's fresh-signature line, and the three bottles we stock split cleanly: Snow and Sky are both bright citrus-aromatics built on neroli, while Silver goes woody and balsamic in a different direction entirely. This guide compares all three, with the note pyramid recorded against each bottle.
Shiyaaka Snow — Eau de Parfum 100 ml
Profile: mandarin orange and bergamot over neroli, nutmeg and pink pepper, on Indonesian vetiver oil and cardamom. Fresh Citrus-Aquatic. Presented for men, for daily wear.
Verdict: the tightest and driest of the three — a short citrus opening, a peppery neroli heart, and vetiver rather than musk holding the base. Reads clean and slightly spiced rather than soapy. Khadlaj Shiyaaka Snow →
Shiyaaka Sky — Eau de Parfum 100 ml
Profile: bergamot, mandarin and verbena over neroli, geranium, orange blossom and green notes, on ambroxan, vetiver, musk and sandalwood. Fresh Citrus-Aquatic.
Verdict: the fuller version of the same idea. Where Snow is spare, Sky adds verbena and green notes up top and a wider musk-sandalwood base, which gives it more body without losing the freshness. The one we hold most of. Khadlaj Shiyaaka Sky →
Shiyaaka Silver — Eau de Parfum 100 ml
Profile: floral, orange, herbal and sweet notes over balsamic and spicy notes, on violet, musk, sandalwood and cedarwood, with recorded accords of cedar, neroli and vetiver. Woody Oriental (Oud). Listed unisex, all seasons, daily wear.
Verdict: the odd one out — woody and balsamic rather than citrus-fresh, with violet and cedar in the base. Our recorded pyramid for this bottle is broader and less specific than for Snow and Sky, so treat the note list as indicative and test it if you can. Khadlaj Shiyaaka Silver →
Which Shiyaaka should you buy?
Clean, dry and spiced: Snow. Fuller and greener with a softer base: Sky. Woody and balsamic rather than fresh: Silver. Snow and Silver sit at the same price; Sky is the most expensive of the three.
A note on performance figures
We have no verified longevity or sillage figures logged for any bottle in this line, so none are printed above. All three are eau de parfum, so concentration does not separate them — the difference is in direction, not strength.
Every note pyramid above is taken from the product record for the exact bottle we sell. Test any of them in person at Sara Sakina, Oakville Place (Unit 242), Oakville, or browse the full Khadlaj collection with live CAD pricing and Ontario shipping.
