Gourmand Addict by Zara presents a bright, sweet, and playful gourmand with a fruit-forward opening dominated by juicy peach, citrus, and hints of black currant. It evolves into a creamy, warm base with vanilla-like sweetness, enhanced by a well-integrated patchouli that adds depth without overwhelming. The fragrance strikes a balance between youthful indulgence and subtle sophistication, with a soft, musky trail that keeps it from feeling too dense. Many find it reminiscent of Black Opium or Pure XS, though it’s lighter and more accessible, with a fresh, peachy effervescence that recalls champagne or fruit tea. It performs best in cooler months and day-to-night wear, particularly in casual or everyday settings—ideal for errands, daily office use, or date-like outings. Despite a reputation for short-lived performance, some users report lasting up to 6 hours with reapplication. The projected sillage is moderate to intimate, and fewer users report strong or offensive projections. The scent is mostly appreciated as a wearable, budget-friendly choice that delivers a pleasant, creamy peach sweetness without excessive sweetness or complexity.
