by Zara
A bold, unisex rose scent with a musky, powdery dry-down that evokes sophistication and vintage elegance. It opens with a sharp, citrusy bergamot that quickly mellows into a dense, complex rose fused with synthetic musk and a subtle woody or incense-like depth. This is not a light or sweet rose — it leans heavily into a mature, dark, and slightly oud-tinged profile with an intense, long-lasting sillage. The fragrance projects strongly, leaving a trail that lingers hours on skin and clothing, making it ideal for evening wear or colder seasons. While some find it refreshing and classy, others perceive it as overly musky, synthetic, or even offensive, especially on sensitive skin. The overall character feels architectural — structured, dramatic, and unique, evoking images of grand city boulevards, antique libraries, or an elegant yet unapologetic woman seen from afar. Its performance is consistently praised, with longevity that exceeds expectations for a Zara fragrance.
