Fresh Sandalwood

Fresh Sandalwood by Zara presents a light, clean, and subtly woody fragrance with a dominant sandalwood base and a citrusy opening that evolves into a powdery musk. The scent is soft and discreet, making it ideal for daytime wear in spring and summer. While some find the initial impression off-putting, it tends to reveal itself over time—growing on wearers who appreciate its quiet elegance. It’s often compared to barber shop or classic woodsy scents like Truefitt & Hill 1805 or Davidoff Adventure, though more refined and less sharp. The effect is pleasant and unobtrusive, making it a conversation starter rather than a bold statement. However, its longevity is limited to around 15–30 minutes, with no lasting presence beyond a few hours. The scent lacks complexity but stands out for its affordability and ability to create a subtle personal signature.
