Scent #3
by Zara
Zara Scent #3 delivers a sharp, aromatic opening with prominent citrus and lavender notes, creating a clean yet slightly medicinal impression. The aroma evolves into a subtle, earthy leather and birch tar accented with a mild nutty undertone, bringing a surprisingly smoky and structured character reminiscent of older Aventus formulations. The scent is refreshingly clean and sporty, evoking a modern masculine aesthetic—think a gym or a streamlined urban space. Its performance is modest, lasting moderately with strong sillage initially, though it fades quickly. Despite its affordability, the fragrance holds a certain elegance with its bottle design and cap, making it a stand-out choice for casual wear during summer days.
