Yakura

Yakura is a Nigerian fragrance brand producing accessible scents for the West African consumer market, where demand for affordable, locally distributed perfumes has grown significantly alongside a rising urban middle class. The house creates compositions that blend Western fragrance conventions — fresh, woody, floral — with the oud-forward and spice-rich preferences common across Sub-Saharan African markets. Specific details on founding date, ownership, and the perfumers behind the compositions are not publicly documented, suggesting the brand operates primarily through regional trade channels rather than international fragrance databases.
